Netapp's Val Bercovici, AKA Big Data Czar, says that, in the cloud hierarchy, data is foundational and most valuable and that we can reach it and share more easily than ever before. It is because of this that we are able to use it in ever more creative ways such as Big Data (yes, big B, big D) to create value for our organisations.
He also said that the amount of data stored tends to exceed the capability of the network to carry it and why analytics and Big Data are done locally to the data rather than remotely. Cisco and telecom companies will be happy to note that uploading and downloading data is not simple and subject to the contraints of the network forcing any organisation or person who wants to move these quantities of data to buy more bandwidth.
Ultimately, the infrastructure planning and architecture should depend on where data will be stored, your governance, minimizing data movement, and maximizing data use.
