Satya Bhamidipati, director of business development of big data and advanced analytics at Oracle, discussed data mining and advanced analytics techniques that will enable the monetization of data during a session at Data Summit 2016.
High performance analytics accelerates customer insights, creates value with data innovations, and improves product adoption, Bhamidipati explained.

A healthy balance of utilizing both internal and external sources is needed, according to Bhamidipati.
Additionally, data mining can provide better information and valuable insights and predictions, Bhamidipati said.
Several analytic methods, such as classification, regression, anomaly detection, attribute importance and association means, can also help spread data throughout the organization.
By taking a traditional approach to analyzing data, which includes defining the business challenge, data preparation, extracting data, ingesting it, building the model, deploying it, and then visualizing the results, companies can stay on top of its information.
According to Bhamidipati, SQL can bring all these tools together for a complete analytics picture of an organization.
With data variety, companies can build better predictive models, increasing sources of relevant data and boosting analytical accuracy, Bhamidipati said.
