Performance and Capacity with Analytics Dan Kimball – Cloud Infrastructure Architect - VMware
Agenda • Introduction • What is Analytics? • Real-world examples • 3rd generation monitoring with analytics • Success stories • Bringing it all together • Closing remarks and Q&A
What is Analytics? Analytics is the application of computer technology, operational research, and statistics to solve problems in business and industry. A simple definition of analytics is "the science of analysis". A practical definition, however, would be that analytics is the process of developing optimal or realistic decision recommendations based on insights derived through the application of statistical models and analysis against existing and/or simulated future data. Source: Wikipedia - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analytics
Real-world examples of Analytics • Clinical decision support systems • Experts use predictive analysis in health care primarily to determine which patients are at risk of developing certain conditions, like diabetes, asthma, heart disease, and other lifetime illnesses. • Customer retention • With the number of competing services available, businesses need to focus efforts on maintaining continuous consumer satisfaction, rewarding consumer loyalty and minimizing customer attrition. • Fraud detection • Fraud is a big problem for many businesses and can be of various types: inaccurate credit applications, fraudulent transactions (both offline and online), identity thefts and false insurance claims. • Risk management • When employing risk management techniques, the results are always to predict and benefit from a future scenario. The Capital asset pricing model (CAP-M) "predicts" the best portfolio to maximize return • Underwriting • Many businesses have to account for risk exposure due to their different services and determine the cost needed to cover the risk. For example, auto insurance providers need to accurately determine the amount of premium to charge to cover each automobile and driver.
