Schlossnagle Asks: Is this Normal?

OmniTI founder and CEO, Theo Schlossnagle, is at O'Reilly's Strata Conference this week, presenting, "Is this Normal? Finding Anomalies in Real-time Data." According to him, there are many modern techniques for identifying anomalies in datasets, however, there are fewer that work as online algorithms suitable for application to real-time streaming data. Worse, most of these methodologies require a deep understanding of the data itself. He will lead Strata attendees on a tour of the options for identifying anomalies in real-time data and discuss how much they really need to know beforehand, in order to guess at the ever-useful question: is this normal?

Strata Conference offers the nuts-and-bolts of building a data-driven business; the latest on the skills, tools and technologies needed to make data work. The conference brings together practitioners, researchers, IT leaders and entrepreneurs to discuss big data, Hadoop, analytics, visualization and data markets.
