“Big data is a type of supercomputing for commercial enterprises and governments that will make it possible to monitor a pandemic as it happens, anticipate where the next bank robbery will occur, optimize fast food supply chains, predict voter behavior on election day, and forecast the volatility of political uprisings while they are happening.”
Jeffrey Needham, Disruptive Possibilities: How Big Data Changes Everything

“Big data is the most disruptive force this industry has seen since the introduction of the relational database.”
Jeffrey Needham, Disruptive Possibilities: How Big Data Changes Everything

“Although the tenets of platform engineering apply to both enterprise- and global-scale computing, the difference is that at enterprise scale, the mantras are optional. At global scale, they’re mandatory. Platform engineering for big data demands three critical tenets: avoid complexity, prototype perpetually, and optimize everything.”
Jeffrey Needham, Disruptive Possibilities: How Big Data Changes Everything
