Jim's total career at Microsoft lasted almost 25 years with experience in product groups, and every leadership role in IT ranging from application leadership, to infrastructure, to security.  Jim held international roles based in Tokyo running IT for Asia, and in London running IT for Europe, the Middle East and Africa.

Summary of Woody's Presentation

How GPU-Accelerated Databases Can Enable Real-Time Businesses

Modern business is fluid.  Critical business events must be responded to when they occur.  Delays mean lost opportunities and sub-optimal outcomes.  Modern analytics must be as agile as the business itself.

 The days of looking at your data in the rear-view mirror are coming to an end.  We are at the dawn of a new analytic revolution:  the real-time database.  

 Millisecond latency is the new analytic performance standard.  A new class of GPU-accelerated databases enable this level of performance.  GPU-accelerated databases are over 100x more performant than even the “fastest” in-memory data stores. 

GPU-accelerated databases can provide extreme levels of scalability without negative performance impacts.  They are also easy to implement; thanks to their use of ANSI-standard SQL and hybrid visualization capabilities.  This makes them particularly attractive for some of the most demanding analytic tasks; like scoring of predictive models, and geospatial visualizations.

Summary of Leo & Bob's Presentation

Data Virtualization

In this session you will learn:

·         What is data virtualization and how does it work

·         Twelve tangible ways data virtualization can help you overcome analytics data challenges 

·         Cases studies in, and a proven strategy for, data virtualization implementation success
