Садржај предавања:

Today’s Data Warehouses (DW) are proven method for capturing, storing, and analysis of massive amounts of data. They provide business intelligence in finance, e-commerce, customer relationship management (CRM), healthcare systems, security, etc. However, DWs do not include emails and documents – the lifeblood of modern business.
The seminar will present a recent high-end certification that resulted in two real technological breakthroughs:

1. The World’s First 1-Petabyte Data Warehouse (1PB=250B or ~1015B) loading fully-indexed data at the rate of 285 Billion transactions per day or 30 TB of “input” data for a total of 6 Trillion (6*1012) Records using DataFusion and Sybase IQ RDBMS.
2. The World’s First Unified Data Warehouse – using DataFusion – capable of real-time capture, storing, indexing and analysis of unified structured and unstructured data (emails and documents) into a single database at the rate of 150 Million files and 50 Million emails per day, equal to 26 TB per day, enabling real-time business and legal analytics in the areas of eDiscovery, CRM, fraud or compliance never before possible.

The certification was a joint effort of BMMSoft (www.bmmsoft.com), Sun Microsystems, Sybase, experts from University of Belgrade (ETF) and SOL (www.sol.co.rs).
The seminar will describe the DataFusion platform, the background of the Petabyte certification, real-world applicability and lessons learnt from it. It will also provide an interesting, most up-to-date overview of this industry field.

Special feature: The seminar will announce a software development contest for students of computer science and engineering with attractive prizes, including a journey to the Silicon Valley, sponsored by BMMSoft (www.bmmsoft.com).
