Big Data
Big Data is best for financial firms to divide everything into smaller tasks, which are then distributed through many different servers.
Great examples
Mike, great examples of how Big Data isn't just hype. Those in the industry know that there are many enterprises quietly, without any fanfare, creating solutions like the ones you mentioned. Oftentimes, those working with Big Data won't even use the term because for various reasons, they don't want to confuse what they're doing with too much hype. Ironic.
