http://www.ibm.com/smarterplanet/us/en/index.html?cm_mmc=agus_brsp2hp-20100301-106aw01w-_-v-_-future-_-youtube IBM helps businesses extract insights from data to predict what will happen next and allow for intelligent business decisions.

IBMer Julia Grace: People get excited about tomorrow. I love yesterday. Yesterday holds the answers. On a smarter planet, we can compare trillions of pieces of data about the past with what is happening now to help anticipate infectious disease, potential blackouts, when a delivery will arrive. I use the past to predict the future. I’m an IBMer. Let’s build a smarter planet.

IBM Commercial: Making Sense of Data On A Smarter Planet

http://www.ibm.com/smarterplanet/us/en/index.html?cm_mmc=agus_brsp2hp-20100301-106aw01w-_-v-_-perceptions-_-youtube IBM helps businesses analyze disparate sources of data in real-time, helping transportation and banking industries make smarter decisions.

IBMer John Cohn: We are surrounded by information. Human beings use their 5 senses to understand the world. On a smarter planet, organizations now have the same ability to analyze data from multiple sources and make sense of it instantly. Banks can anticipate credit fraud. Trains run with fewer delays. The more types of data we understand, the smarter we become. I help organizations sense the world around them. I’m an IBMer. Let’s build a smarter planet.

IBM Commercial: A Smarter Planet Relies On Data Analysis

http://www.ibm.com/smarterplanet/us/en/index.html?cm_mmc=agus_brsp2hp-20100301-106aw01w-_-v-_-anthem-_-youtube Understanding data patterns is important to industries like healthcare, transportation and energy and utilities. For that reason, efficient data management and analysis is essential to a Smarter Planet.

Voiceover: Our planet is alive with data. It’s generated by cars on a freeway. Patients in a hospital. Electricity in the grid. The more we understand data, the more answers we find. Patterns are easing traffic in over 400 cities. Finding disease 50 times faster. Reducing energy costs by 10%. On a smarter planet, we can analyze all the data we now see to make the world work better. Let’s build a smarter planet.

Information management in high-volume legal proceedings – ZyLAB Conference

Mr. Gonzalo De Cesare gives you insight in what kind of challenges the UN War tribunals had to face regarding information management. During the war crime investigations enormous amounts of information had to be analyzed. How to handle the enormous amount evidence material? How to work with all the different languages and the different parties involved? An ediscovery and edisclosure system was set up for a community of defense attorneys and prosecutors all over the world. This way they could find, navigate and understand the complete evidence collection. The ZyLAB eDiscovery and Production System is now the standard in all UN War Crime Tribunals.

IBM Commercial: Intelligent Data Management and Analysis For A Smarter Planet

http://www.ibm.com/smarterplanet/us/en/index.html?cm_mmc=agus_brsp2hp-20100301-106aw01w-_-v-_-road-_-youtube IBM helps businesses gather real-time data for efficient analysis. The up-to-date insights inform actionable business solutions.

IBMer Jeff Jonas: If you were to stand at a road, and the cars are whipping by, and all you can do is take a snapshot of the way the road looked five minutes ago. How would you know when to cross the road? 9 out of 10 organizations still make decisions this way every day using out-of-date information. The organizations that are most competitive are going to be the ones that can make sense of what they learn as fast as they learn it. That’s what I’m working on. I’m an IBMer. Let’s build a smarter planet.

Sybase RAP – The Trading Edition – Data Management Solutions for Capitol Markets

http://www.sybase.com

Sybase RAP-The Trading Edition, provides capital markets firms with a trading platform that combines a very fast, ultra-low latency solution, an in-memory component for real-time analysis and a column-based data warehouse that can store and analyze huge amounts of historical data extremely quickly. Rap The Trading Edition, solves issues with the volume and velocity of information that is coming into the financial services institutions.
Hi, my name is Neil McGovern and I am the Director of Product Marketing for Sybase. Today, I want to talk to you about some of the data challenges being faced by some of our financial services customers and how Sybase is helping address these issues. The major issue is the volume and velocity of information that is coming into financial services institutions. This has been growing exponentially over the last few years, and at the same time, the data windows, the trading windows, have been going down, the decision windows have been decreasing. And these are now less than one millisecond in many cases. And this is where the problem lies. In here. Too much data coming in too quickly and the need for reaction time is faster and faster every day. Financial services institutions, to date, have had to make a compromise. Do they choose speed or do they choose the ability to store and work with the huge volumes of information. If they choose speed, they use the technology from complex event processing, companies such as ALaRI, StreamBase and Correlate. This applies sequel to the information as its coming in and identifies significant events for trading systems. If they needed to store a volume of information they started to load that into their traditional relational database management systems. These systems really were just not designed for this volume or velocity of data. Too much information coming in too quickly, the systems could get overloaded, the response times goes down significantly, queries can take minutes, something hours. So even with the traditional solutions being used there are problems.

Sybase, with our customers and our partners created an alternative solution to this. We kept the CEP engines so that as these huge volumes of information come in, we can identify significant events. But we also added a unique piece of technology called the vertical database that is very good at storing information very quickly and can scale to store huge amounts of information. We put these together in one package called RAP The Trading Edition. But we did more. We also added in an in-memory data base so that you can store your information as it comes in memory almost instantaneously and have all access to it for real time risk management, for real time trade cost analysis or a few minutes later, or a few seconds later, the information will be available in the massive data store with years and years of context and historical data.

This vertical database, in addition to being very good at storing information, is also very, very quick at retrieving information. Queries that can take minutes or longer on traditional systems take seconds. We see performance increases of a hundred to a thousand times fairly regularly. And people, when I tell them this, ask how it is done. Well, it is the architecture of the database. In the traditional database, data is stored in rows, so you have column one, next column two, column three, column four and so on. And if you are trying to do a view of column two, you have to read here and then keep reading through it to read the next row and then the next row to get the information. This is very time consuming, this horizontal way of storing data is very time consuming when you are retrieving information. In a vertical database we store the column information together so column one is altogether, column two is altogether, so you can see taking a view of column two is almost instantaneous. But it gets better than that. Because we know we are storing the same types of information together, we can apply compression techniques to this, and, because the information is stored in an index, basically, we dont need indexes in this database. The data is the index. So we can take a terabyte of information that typically would explode three terabytes, by the time you put it into the traditional database and add all the overhead, and we can take that and compress it down to, typically, maybe thirty percent of what it is, so one terabyte goes down to about a third of a terabyte. So, not only is this very quick, it’s also very efficient.

So this is RAP The Trading Edition. A very, very fast solution, a memory solution for real time and also huge amounts of historical information that can be stored very quickly and accessed very quickly. If you need more information go to the Sybase.com/RAP. Thank you very much.
