BEING LAST TO GET IT :)

network speed, security

Most clients think security is the biggest barrier

As a Solution provider, it is a question of convincing the client about security issues..

Most people are concerned with Security but there are plenty of apps that can easily move- how about test/dev?

@data_henrik but I learned who is hosting it and that Softlayer customers can get dedicated networks

Security a top concern for cloud-based analytics. dashDB designed with security in mind from the ground up.

WIth all the investment going to the cloud, Security concerns will be solved quickly, we are already thinking years ahead with #dashDB

data location

Data movement to the cloud a concern for cloud-based analytics. dashDB + Data Works makes it easy.

IBM has thought of common concerns clients have with cloud-based analytics like security, data privacy, hybrid architectures, data integration.

∑ By year-end 2016, more than 50% of Global 1000 will have stored customer sensitive data in the public cloud (Gartner as quoted on Wired) - 50% are not worried!

@data_henrik Network quality is really important for any database/DW in the cloud. Speed is important, but stability even more so.

#dashDB brings enterprise class data warehousing to the cloud.

@nancykoppdw with containers and perimeter-less security getting stronger this concern will be mitigated

lots of concerns with moving/loading data as well

Hmm @GetdashDB not worried abt #security does not mean its not an issue though. How do we address?

we hear "security" a lot. That is why dashDB has security baked in. There is the usual perimeter security that you would expect. There is also encryption all the way. Most important, dashDB can tell you if you have sensitive data and what to do about it

@Natasha_D_G Security starts from the ground up, proceeds to the software design, and concludes with operational best practices. We've got you covered.

@marcobonezzi by data locatin you mean complaince with safe harbor laws?

One of the concerns that people often have about move to cloud is load simplicity. That's why dashDB has focused on it so heavily. Seamless integration with IBM DataWorks extends dashDB to huge potential. Rich data format support.

Pull down the screen to see that Q3 has been posted.

@katsnelson exactly...sometimes that is required I guess

@_hoffman dashDB runs in Softlayer. One of the key differentiators for Softlayer cloud is robustness of its network. Head and shoulders above other CSPs

Customers are concerned that they will lose control over their data if they put it in the cloud. That security and compliance may suffer.

Security! Yup (as others have said, and I agree). dashDB has always-on encryption for data on disk, and across wire transfers.

@katsnelson Agreed. Both within and between data centers. Gotta think globally about these things.

Some concerns around Cloud DW-ing include bulk loading, synchronizing, and securing data.

Where the data is physically stored is still a concern to many companies - leveraging the global SoftLayer pods to support DashDB will be essential.

How is high availability handled? If one or more DashDB nodes managed in the Cloud goes down, what happens to my data and application availability?

Security concerns around data can be mitigated with hybrid cloud solutions.

@JeffFeinsmith If you use Cloudant as your canonical data store, the data is replicated multiple times on different servers _before_ it even gets to dashDB.

Comes back to risk around the data. Compare that with value to see the whole picture.

How can organization start? You mentioned free, how do they subscribe?

Easy! Visit #bluemix, and look for the dashDB icon.

Or visit dashDB.com

Shameless plug for my blog, here's a @dashDB overview: bit.ly/10K6Q0E

and some #dashDB links I compiled on #Github https://github.com/d...

and we would be very excited to learn what you would do with it. Any thoughts?

I analyzed weather data, plotted out charts, and planned my vacation based on the results :)

We're combining the best of several hot technologies in IBM to create a cloud service for data warehousing that is super easy, amazingly powerful and versatile. @getdashdb

maybe Birst can get a brand new set of customers because many more are now able to have a top notch data warehouse technology?

Well, the combination powerful BI technology built specifically for cloud deployment with highly scalable and performant cloud-based in-memory analytic RDBMS brings many potential benefits to mind.

It's actually faster than in-memory. And as a managed service we have made simplicity an extremely high priority for the technology. bit.ly/10K6Q0E

@data_henrik , you used DashDB to plan your vacation?? Very interesting.

@samlightstone , very similar @birstbi value proposition. I like it a great deal.

I uploaded historic #weather data provided by the German national weather service, analyzed it

We used dashDB to analyze frequency of falls for a senior citizen

We're combing cutting edge in-database analytics, with in-memory optimized SQL, and IBM industry leading data centers to provide an amazing, simple, low cost data warehouse experience. Coupling it with Cloudant JSON adds so much appeal.

Welcome :-)
