Big Data Pilot Demo Days @BDV PPP Virtual Summit 2020

Hosted by BDV PPP. BigDataStack, I-BiDaaS, Track & Know and Policy Cloud join forces in a series of online demonstrations of innovative Big Data Technologies unlocking the potential of various applications.

The BigDataStack Data Visualization Service built on Open Source Software

In this series, BigDataStack is taking each of its six services under the looking glass, highlighting its software components, their functionalities and place in the BigDataStack infrastructure management. Each service consists of a set of software components that allow for specific Big Data applications and operations, that will be showcased. For you, to have a quick understanding of the added value of the BigDataStack software for your own business, BigDataStack partners have prepared a series of videos.  We kick this series off with the BigDataStack Data Visualisation Service.

BigDataStack Connected Consumer Use Case implementation: in-store consumer-tailored recommendations via food retailers’ on-line applications.

The Connected Consumer use case utilizes the BigDataStack environment to implement and offer a recommender system for the grocery market. All of the data that are used to train the analytic algorithms of the use case are corporate data provided by one of the top food retailers companies in Spain. The final goal of the scenario is to make use of the capabilities of BigDataStack to produce in-store tailored recommendations to customers at the on-line applications of the food retailer.

Online the BigDataStack software components

The BigDataStack project published all software components, most of them Open Source in the online catalogue available here: https://bigdatastack.eu/the-bigdatastack-solution 

The catalogue provides you with a downloadable factsheet for each of the components, information on its license and access to the code on GitHub or GitLab for the Open Source components. 

Women in science day

11th of February is the "women in science" day and we would like to celebrate it highlighting the role of our women inside the project.
We asked Amaryllis Raouzaiou, senior researcher and project manager at the Athens Technology Center to answer 3 quick questions about her role in the project and her personal experience as a woman through a career as a researcher.

Three BigDataStack takeaways on Artificial Intelligence and Big Data transforming Business and Society

Three BigDataStack team members attended the European Big Data Value Forum (EBDVF) on Artificial Intelligence and Big Data transforming Business and Society, in October 2019, in Helsinki. Ana- Belén Gonzalez (Atos) Leads the exploitation work in BigDataStack, Mauricio Fadel (NEC) is BigDataStack’s connection to the BDVA where he joins the technical and coordination meetings. Bin Cheng, Senior researcher at NEC European labs, gave a talk during EBFVF on Enabling Smart Manufacturing with Federated AI at the Edge about his research on edge computing, developed in BigDataStack. We video interviewed them there and asked about their main takeaways

A BigDataStack Seafarer Tale

Real Time Ship Management Danaos use case. A Seafarer's vessel has to complete its route within a specific time-frame. When a part of the main engine fails unexpectedly, the ship risks staying off-hire. This can be very damaging to a shipping company, as chartering revenues decrease, while replacing a spare part immediately increases cost. The seafarer needs identification of potential failure to allow timely ordering, or even replacement of spare parts before failure.
