An algorithm is mathematical “logic” or a set of rules used to make calculations. Starting with an initial input (which may be zero or null), the logic or rules are coded or written into software as a set of steps to be followed in conducting calculations, processing data or performing other functions, eventually leading to an output.

An analytics platform is a full-featured technology solution designed to address the needs of large enterprises. Typically, it joins different “tools and analytics systems together with an engine to execute, a database or repository to store and manage the data, data mining processes, and techniques and mechanisms for obtaining and preparing data that is not stored. This solution can be conveyed as a software-only application or as a cloud-based software as a service (SaaS) provided to organizations in need of contextual information that all their data points to, in other words, analytical information based on current data records.

Big data analytics refers to the strategy of analyzing large volumes of data … gathered from a wide variety of sources, including social networks, videos, digital images, sensors and sales transaction records. The aim in analyzing all this data is to uncover patterns and connections that might otherwise be invisible, and that might provide valuable insights about the users who created it. Through this insight, businesses may be able to gain an edge over their rivals and make superior business decisions.

The data warehouse concept started in 1988 when Barry Devlin and Paul Murphy published their groundbreaking paper in the IBM Systems Journal. Their vision sparked a need for more specific definitions of database implementations, which Bill Inmon and Ralph Kimball provided in the early 1990s – and Gartner further clarified definitions in 2005. Now any discussion on the topic also includes how or where one is implemented, such as within the cloud, or spanning on-premises and cloud in a hybrid manner.
