These trends are driving us toward a <em>hybrid data ecosystem<\/em>, which is essentially an integrated environment consisting of different types of data management platforms and tools, ranging from traditional databases and data appliances to columnar databases, NoSQL databases, and Hadoop.  Modern organizations need this diversity of platforms so they can match the growing number of data workloads to platforms that are optimized for such workloads. Otherwise, technical users are frustrated as they attempt to manage and process data in new ways\u2014for advanced analytics, broader 360-degree views, real-time reactions to streaming data, lower TCO\u2014with platforms that weren\u2019t designed for these new requirements. In short, getting full business value and technical efficiency from new big data opportunities demands a hybrid data ecosystem.&#8221;<\/div>\n<div class=\"lightsocial_container\"><div
