Extract from Assaph Mehr’s article “Outrageous Demands (And What You Can Do About Them)”
Over the past two decades we’ve developed increasingly sophisticated tools and methodologies to turn raw evidence into actionable intelligence. But in the past three years, we’ve seen an exponential growth in the volume of data. For many of our customers, what used to work no longer does; you need to make it work – preferably without increasing costs.
You’re facing ridiculous demands but can get smart about it.
You probably already know the Nuix Engine is the best tool out there (hey, we’ve cracked one terabyte of data in an hour!), so I’d like to talk about methodology. I’d like to walk you through the past and present to where we see the future of data processing in three key areas:
- Scaling your processing environment to meet varying (but inevitably growing) data volumes
- Integrating Nuix as part of a broader workflow
- Solving business problems, not just data challenges.
I’ll show you how you can answer the demands you face now and how you can get ahead of the curve and be ready to address tomorrow’s challenges.
SCALING
Before, you would run Nuix Workstation on a bunch of servers. Team members could have dedicated machines which they couldn’t fully utilize all the time or would look for ways to balance work across several common servers. A person would have to wait for each stage of the job to finish before kicking off the next one, leading to all kinds of inefficiency.
