Data SheetAnalyticsThe analytics opportunityBest practice: Routing queries to the dataDeep, sophisticated analytics on large data volumes areintegral to enterprises in a competitive economy, giving theman edge over the competition. However, most organizationsare challenged by both the time-to-market on new analyticcapability, as well as maintaining service level agreements onexisting analytics. IBM PureData System for Analytics shiftsthe focus to simplicity, instead of unproductivelymanaging complexity.IBM Fluid Query is the capability that unifies data access acrossthe logical data warehouse and big data ecosystems. Users andanalytic applications need access to data in a variety of datarepositories and platforms without concern for the data’s locationor access method or the need to rewrite a query. IBM FluidQuery is the capability for a data store to route a query (or evenpart of a query) to the correct data store within the logical datawarehouse so that the query can flow to the data, not the dataflow to the query.Strategic analytics should not be complicatedto deliver and difficult to manage.No matter where a user connects within the logical datawarehouse, they can access all data through the same, standardAPI/SQL access. IBM Fluid Query is the foundation of thelogical data warehouse, giving users the ability to combine theirdata, even if spread across various sources in a fast, agile mannerto drive analytics and deeper insight, without understanding howto connect multiple data stores, use different syntaxes or APIs, orchange their application.IBM PureData System for Analytics is a scalable, hardwareaccelerated, massively parallel system that enables clients to gaininsight from enormous data volumes, 10 – 100 times faster thanthey can with traditional systems1 without the need to copy thedata into a separate analytics server.IBM Fluid Query 1.0, included with IBM PureData System forAnalytics, provides access to data in Hadoop from IBMPureData System for Analytics appliances. IBM Fluid Query 1.0enables the fast movement of data between Hadoop and IBMPureData System for Analytics appliances. Enabling query anddata movement, IBM Fluid Query 1.0 connects those appliancesto common Hadoop systems: IBM BigInsights for Apache Hadoop , Cloudera, and Hortonworks. IBM Fluid Query 1.0allows queries against PureData System for Analytics, Hadoopor both by merging results from PureData System for Analyticsdatabase tables and Hadoop data sources thus creating powerfulanalytic combinations.IBM Fluid Query 1.0 enables your existing PureData System forAnalytics applications to gain insight from even more data. Youcan now run your existing queries, reports, and analytics againstdata on Hadoop, in addition to the data in your appliance.Figure 1: PureData System for Analytics2
