IBM BigInsights is an analytics and data visualization tool leveraging hadoop.IBMIBM Analytics Engine: paving the way for easier administration2019-02-09T20:24:44.064ZAs far as I know, we are the only department in our rather large organization that is currently using the IBM Analytics Engine. We needed a relatively low-cost solution to perform analysis without a huge amount of maintenance or upkeep required. It also allowed us to perform tasks we did not foresee, such as analyze data across multiple applications.,Ease of use / user interface
Reasonable pricing
Ability to build and deploy clusters very quickly... within minutes,I would like to see a more robust version of their online help
The speed of their business support is adequate, but I kind of expect more from such a powerhouse.
Problems with duration of cluster life,7,The cost to implement was definitely a plus when it came to choosing the IBM Analytics Engine.
While sufficient, the overall support received from IBM was less than that for which we had planned.
We were able to separate storage and computing while paving the way for easier cluster administration.,Apache Spark and Google BigQueryVerified UserIBM Analytics Engine is the Engine to Move our Data Analytics Forward2018-12-31T19:29:11.962ZIBM Analytics Engine is being used by my organization to analyze our data across multiple applications. We use it primarily to gather data to be used to analyze application performance and reliability. This data allows us to ensure that we are delivering the best possible application performance to our customers and business partners across all channels.,We are able to build and deploy clusters within minutes to simplify user experience and increase scalability and reliability.
We are able to scale and compute on-demand to handle newer workloads like machine learning.
We really like that we are able to access and administer the application via multiple interfaces.,Some of the documentation can be overwhelming and very technical. We would love to have some documentation written for non-technical people.
We would like to see better communication from IBM regarding upgrades and patching cycles of the product.
The learning curve for this product is steep. This is definitely not a product that will be used right out of the box.,8,This product has allowed us to gather analytics data across multiple platforms so we can view and analyze the data from different workflows, all in one place.
IBM Analytics has allowed us to scale on demand which allows us to capture more and more data, thus increasing our ROI.
The convenience of the ability to access and administer the product via multiple interfaces has allowed our administrators to ensure that the application is making a positive ROI for our business users and partners.,Google Analytics and Microsoft Azure Stream Analytics,IBM Db2 on Cloud, IBM API Management, IBM Cloud Activity TrackerVerified UserIBM Analytics When to Use and When Not to Use2018-05-14T19:38:31.007ZWe used IBM Analytics Engine for one of the public sector clients who have to deal with massive amounts of data coming from their mobile app and centralized internet web applications. They were previously running a custom solution developed by one of the big fours and were unfortunate enough to have lost a data due to infrastructure failure. The high-level idea was to separate computing and storage and simpler administration of clusters without losing the analytics capabilities.,Separation of computing and storage without losing analytics capability
Simple and straightforward cluster administration
Relatively simpler navigation as compared to the alternatives,Business support is not half as good as it should be. Takes a while to provide support to even high priority tickets.
Lack of proper documentation on features and how they can be leveraged for maximum ROI.,7,Reduced cost of maintenance and administration of analytics`
Improved fail-safe measures for overall application,Hortonworks Data Platform, Apache Spark, Tableau Desktop and Tableau OnlineVerified UserAnalytics Engine in Big Data2018-02-01T15:37:28.978ZWe used it for a research project to implement big data analysis on a YELP dataset from 2017 to answer a sales related question. We used the default Ambari file browser to upload the data, Hadoop ecosystem for data cleaning, Hive to query the dataset followed by TABLEAU for visualization.,Simple to implement
Good support from IBM
Easy to use
Widely used for Big data implementation,Even for L4 level support, assistance could have been more prompt. Since we are doing this for master level research all the students faced an issue when there was a MIGRATION to a newer version of the analytical engine, which doesn't let us take cmd line.
The explanation was not clear enough when a problem is resolved followed by a service request. Apart from being confidential, it's better for the students to understand why an issue occurs and what steps were take to resolve it.,8,This is a research project so nonprofit, but its easy to use and teach others,Microsoft Azure HDInsight,IBM Watson AnalyticsPrasanna NattuthuraiGreat product2018-01-26T20:48:19.432ZI go to California state university, Los Angles for a master in information systems. Our computer science department uses IBM Analytics Engine along with the students to give them hands on experience with a real time tool. It works pretty great. I used IBM Analytics Engine to learn about Hadoop and soon will learn about Spark SQL and so on.,Compact clusters. Via the trial versions that I use, I have a great insight of how different organizations create clusters and manage data
Fast: the load time at registration is a bit slow. But after creating the first cluster, everything went way faster
Realistic: hands on experience
Reasonable cost,Lagging at some point. Inconsistency in maintaining and running clusters.
Should allow the cluster to last longer before refreshing
It’s a bit confusing to navigate through the site. Sometime I thought I hit the right section then it lead me to another one.
The log in page is inconsistent. I could find 3 different IBM log in page via Google. And then have to click many things that will lead to where I want.,10,Increasing learning success. My class and I were able to practice real tools
The only downsize is without the school, it would be unaffordable to use the tools,Verified User
