There are 4 developer conversations we have around data.Developers are looking retrospectively over Big Data. They want to analyze and report on it faster and cheaper. Second, they want to look at data streaming in real-time from sensors and games and do the same. Third, they want to learn patterns from all of this massive data and predict the future.Finally, they want to integrate all of these into applications of the future that are data-driven and intelligent.A great way to bring these to life is to tell you a story.
