BAD HARDWARE WEEK

Here are just a few of challenges that The Machine is being built to address:

 Data governance and security issues are at top of mind—not only for organizations, but also for the average individual. Recent events have made it clear that organizations can’t afford to take a passive or reactive approach to the way that they protect their information. The Machine will make possible the secure storage, aggregation and transmission of never-before-imagined amounts of data.

• Most organizations are only able to use big data analyses to understand what is happening in hindsight—existing tools are being used to process things that have already happened. The Machine is designed to enable truly real-time insight. This will help organizations transition from having purely reactive insight to developing the foresight that lets them predict what is going to happen.
• The notion of simply continuing to expand the current data center model isn’t a feasible one. Today, Big Data means bringing all the data into one place. Tomorrow, some of data will be too big and too expensive to move. Tomorrow’s analytics will work where the data is created, transforming data locally into intelligence which is then sent to a centralized learning engine powered by The Machine. The Machine not only increases performance, it will also greatly reduce the amount of energy that is needed to achieve those speeds.
