Database systems are experiencing very rapid change. Databases are handling structured data at the heart of operations in firms, vendor and customer order systems, financials, inventory management, and manufacturing. Data is being processed by enterprise software connected to back-end databases such as the Oracle product. Also with sensor data and social media data, firms need to be able to handle Big Data using tools such as Apache Hadoop. Streaming big data requires a new approach to data management while maintaining the existing structured database for enterprise systems.
Review the following two videos and then produce a comparison of the management issues associated with traditional data management and with Big Data Management. Discuss the future of data management for large firms and the implications for IT management.
