As the Big Data market has evolved, the focus has shifted from data operations (storage, access and processing of data) to data science (understanding, analyzing and forecasting from data). And as new models are developed, organizations need a process for deploying analytics from research into the production environment. In this talk, we'll describe the five stages of real-time analytics deployment:

Data distillation
Model development
Model validation and deployment
Model refresh
Real-time model scoring

We'll review the technologies supporting each stage, and how Revolution Analytics software works with the entire analytics stack to bring Big Data analytics to real-time production environments.
