According to Gartner, "Big Data Discovery" is the next big trend in analytics. It's the logical combination of three of the hottest trends of the last few years in analytics: Big Data, Data Discovery, and Data Science.
Luca Naso's insight:
Another way to look at this is: Since the market offers fewer data scientists than needed, new tools are being developed so that less experienced professionals can analyse data in a productive way. Will this "Data Discovery" be an evolution of self-service BI that we see emerging today? I think that Microsoft products such as Power BI, or Excel Power Query and Power Pivot, are worth mentioning in this context.

According to Steve Lucas, SAP’s president of platform solutions, service pack 10 is one of the biggest-ever updates to the platform since it was launched in 2010.
Main changes:
1. A new remote data-synchronization feature that allows organizations to synchronize data between remote locations and the enterprise;
2. A new Web-based development workbench to help enterprises cleanse data and manage duplicates (this could dramatically reduce the size of data centres);
3. Expanded data-integration capabilities that include support for the latest Cloudera Inc., Hortonworks Inc. and MapR Technologies Inc. Hadoop distributions.
