Advances in technologies and the increasing amount of information are transforming how business is conducted in many industries, including government. Government data generation and digital archiving rates are on the rise due to the rapid growth of mobile devices and applications, smart sensors and devices, cloud computing solutions, and citizen-facing portals. As digital information expands and becomes more complex, information management, processing, storage, security, and disposition become more complex as well. New capture, search, discovery, and analysis tools are helping organizations gain insights from their unstructured data. The government market is at a tipping point, realizing that information is a strategic asset, and government needs to protect, leverage, and analyze both structured and unstructured information to better serve and meet mission requirements. As government leaders strive to evolve data-driven organizations to successfully accomplish mission, they are laying the groundwork to correlate dependencies across events, people, processes, and information.

High-value government solutions will be created from a mashup of the most disruptive technologies:

• Mobile devices and applications
• Cloud services
• Social business technologies and networking
• Big Data and analytics

Big Data is one of the intelligent industry solutions and allows government to make better decisions by taking action based on patterns revealed by analyzing large volumes of data — related and unrelated, structured and unstructured.

But accomplishing these feats takes far more than simply accumulating massive quantities of data. "Making sense of these volumes of Big Data requires cutting-edge tools and technologies that can analyze and extract useful knowledge from vast and diverse streams of information," Tom Kalil and Fen Zhao of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy wrote in a post on the OSTP Blog.

The White House took a step toward helping agencies find these technologies when it established the National Big Data Research and Development Initiative in 2012. The initiative included more than $200 million to make the most of the explosion of Big Data and the tools needed to analyze it.

The challenges that Big Data poses are nearly as daunting as its promise is encouraging. Storing data efficiently is one of these challenges. As always, budgets are tight, so agencies must minimize the per-megabyte price of storage and keep the data within easy access so that users can get it when they want it and how they need it. Backing up massive quantities of data heightens the challenge.

Analyzing the data effectively is another major challenge. Many agencies employ commercial tools that enable them to sift through the mountains of data, spotting trends that can help them operate more efficiently. (A recent study by MeriTalk found that federal IT executives think Big Data could help agencies save more than $500 billion while also fulfilling mission objectives.).

Custom-developed Big Data tools also are allowing agencies to address the need to analyze their data. For example, the Oak Ridge National Laboratory’s Computational Data Analytics Group has made its Piranha data analytics system available to other agencies. The system has helped medical researchers find a link that can alert doctors to aortic aneurysms before they strike. It’s also used for more mundane tasks, such as sifting through resumes to connect job candidates with hiring managers.

In this instructor-led, live training in Quezon City, participants will learn the mindset with which to approach Big Data technologies, assess their impact on existing processes and policies, and implement these technologies for the purpose of identifying criminal activity and preventing crime. Case studies from law enforcement organizations around the world will be examined to gain insights on their adoption approaches, challenges and results.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Combine Big Data technology with traditional data gathering processes to piece together a story during an investigation.
• Implement industrial big data storage and processing solutions for data analysis.
• Prepare a proposal for the adoption of the most adequate tools and processes for enabling a data-driven approach to criminal investigation.

Big Data is a term that refers to solutions destined for storing and processing large data sets. Developed by Google initially, these Big Data solutions have evolved and inspired other similar projects, many of which are available as open-source. R is a popular programming language in the financial industry.
