Predictive Analytics
One way to think of predictive analytics is to think of it as
NEURAL
It is an accurate analogy
u Does SAP see in-memory technology as critical to implementing predictive analytics?
u Does SAP have specific data preparation technology, or is that a partner arrangement?
u Is this predictive capability cloud-neutral?
u Is the capability Hadoop-agnostic?
u Where does streaming fit into the picture?
