Candor - Solution for Big Data
- 1. Candor is a full service solution consisting of an advanced, cloud-based data analytics platform, supported by experts in data analytics and intelligence, with customizable methodologies for solving complex analytic challenges in the modern Big Data world. OUR NEW REALITY Todays leaders must make real-time decisions amidst a constantly changing sea of information while their enterprises are being bombarded with new information that can hold the key to monumental gains. The volume of data is simply staggering. A recent study suggests that 2.5 quintillion bytes of data are created on a daily basis. Critical success factors to overcoming this challenge are threefold: (1) identifying the right data sources among the millions of websites, blogs, social media, and databases; (2) pinpointing which data among those sources is valuable or useful; and (3) sifting through that data to inform decision-making, avoid unacceptable risk, and effectively exploit competitive advantage. Further complicating this challenge is that data exists in a variety of formats, locations, and sources. Historical information holds valuable knowledge but may include volumes of printed materials; conversely, more structured, modern databases can present information in an untold number of formats. These disparate and constantly growing data sets make it difficult or, in some cases, nearly impossible to quickly find the right information needed to make an informed decision. Overcoming this challenge, however, simultaneously creates vast opportunities. To realize these opportunities, organizations must rapidly adapt, effectively leverage their most important data, and synthesize information to support intelligent decisions and accurate predictions. THE CURRENT TREND - BIG DATA A single web search of the term Big Data will show industrys degree of investment and posturing in analytics for the sake of profit. There are countless solutions available designed by self-proclaimed leaders in the market. Many of these platforms are adaptations that began their development cycles several years ago. As such, these are legacy solutions which have peaked in their ability to WHY CANDOR? immediately and economically solve problems. Many are hardware intensive, Intelligent disparate data linkages designed around proprietary computing platforms, or require ongoing custom Finding needles in stacks of software development. These factors drive spiraling incremental expenses and needles an inflated total cost of ownership. With each quarter that passes, leaders Hidden relationships revealed must watch as the cost of these first to market systems increases while dated technology depreciates and analytic concepts lose ground against the influx of Flexible and extensible data. Unmatched customizable insight High performance visualization OUR SOLUTION: CANDOR and intelligence display Analysis and relationship mapping In response to these challenges and in departure from current trends Aveshka, Inc. along with IKANOW, has developed an industry changing analytical Webenabled - Cloud based platform called Candor which is cloud based and open architecture. Infrastructure independence/ Unlike other platforms in the industry, it was designed specifically to be easily dynamic resource allocation and accessible and updatable and is based on the latest analytics technologies deallocation available. Lower life cycle costs Candor is a web-enabled data analytics solution based on natural language Open Architecture foundation processing a field of artificial intelligence that allows technology to derive Data type independent and open meaning from human language. Candor is designed to sift through targeted source access data sets and efficiently and intelligently analyze the data for meaning. As a result, Candor instantly draws linkages between seemingly unrelated pieces of data that previously would have taken an analyst weeks or months to connect. Hidden relationships are easily
