Integration and Big Data

The buzzword "Big Data" has become rather popular these days. Behind the scenes, however, it's not all glamour. In fact, for a security integrator, like Electronic Systems Consultants LLC, it equates to a ton of work not only collecting an inordinate amount of data related to a facility, but it takes a good deal of effort to analyze and interpret that data.

"Big data usually includes data sets with sizes beyond the ability of commonly used software tools to capture, curate, manage, and process data within a tolerable elapsed time. Big data "size" is a constantly moving target, as of 2012 ranging from a few dozen terabytes to many petabytes of data" (Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_data).

Studying reams of data over a period of time is how ESC optimizes the integrated security systems they install and service. This is one of several reasons why maintenance contracts are so very important. It assures that as time moves forward, so will the efficiency and effectiveness of your integrated security system.
