2nd International workshop on Methodologies to Improve Big Data Projects

As data continues to be produced in massive amounts, with increasing volume, velocity and variety, Big Data projects are growing in frequency and importance. However, the growth in the use of Big Data has outstripped the knowledge of how to support teams that need to do Big Data projects.

In fact, there has been very little written about methodologies, processes and frameworks that could enable teams to more effectively and efficiently “do” big data projects. The situation is much like the early days of software development: software was being developed but organizations had little ability to predict whether a project would be successful, on time or on budget and projects were overly reliant on the heroic efforts of particular individuals.
