Spend a decade or two walking around the halls of Big Companies working on Big Data and you begin to realize you’ve seen it all before. It is comical. It is predictable. And it was originally brought to you by Monty Python…

The story of Big Data, so far, has not truly been an epic quest for insights, answers, and actions. Rather, it is the story of a recurring set of characters riddled with imperfections and operating in their own particular… idiom.
