Cloud Base as the earliest in the embedded cloud computing technology and business model leader, but also has been actively concerned about the development of large data opportunities. Close to the December 12 Cloud World Congress, a large data feast will be on December 13 in Zhongguancun Software Park opened the curtain. Cloud base together with Beijing Zhongguancun Management Committee held the big Data day in Zhongguancun, to: "Hello, Big Data: Standing in the doorway of the data Kingdom" as the main line, will be from the big data development trends, large data and social media, open source technology and trends, and so on, will be large data and cloud computing, to explain the development of smart data, Explain the commercial value of large data, together to draw a blueprint for large data.

Since mankind entered the information age, we have been producing a lot of data. With the rapid popularization of cloud computing technology, in addition to the mass network, mobile Internet application of large-scale outbreaks, human society is stepping into the Internet and communications technology detonated a large data era, the previous more than 20 years of accumulation so that the constant production of massive data is becoming a virtual world inexhaustible energy, and they are far from being developed. IDC predicts that a lot of new data will grow at a rate of 50% a year, or more every two years.

Data has penetrated into every industry and service functional area, and the use of massive amounts of data will herald a new wave of productivity growth and a wave of consumer surpluses. With the development of Internet technology, the data itself is an asset, which has formed a consensus in the industry.

The arrival of the cloud era and the popularization of mobile terminals make the main body of data creation shift from enterprise to individual, and most of the data produced by individuals are unstructured data such as pictures, documents and videos.

By 2012, unstructured data is expected to reach more than 75% of the total amount of data on the Internet. The "Big data" used to extract wisdom is often these unstructured data.

Global technology research and consultancy Gartner has included "Big data" technology in one of the top ten technologies and trends that are strategically important to many companies and organizations in the 2012, while other areas of research, such as cloud computing, next-generation analytics, and memory calculations, are also complementary to "big data" research. Gartner sees "big data" technology as a transformational technology in its emerging technology maturity curve, which means that "big data" technology will be mainstreamed over the next 3-5 years.

This large data theme forum, held under the strong support of Zhongguancun CMC, on the one hand shows the government to large data, cloud computing and other emerging information industry support, on the other hand also indicates that large data is moving to the landing application stage.
