Rapid advances in the IT industry in last years have been critical to the IT revolution, driving the increase in the processing power of cutting-edge digital technologies. Encompassed with such improvements in technologies to obtaining knowledge/regularity and insights of data to create business values and making society sophisticated and better, Big Data and AI are changing directions and aspects in our society, from economics, business models, agriculture, health, to public management. IoT devices and the vast amount of data produced, concurrent to the improvements of the supply chain, product quality and reliability, Big Data has been made essential. Pairing these technologies with Blockchain, there is potential to significantly interpolate all industries of the market. In this talk, we introduce associated technologies rapidly adopted for Big Data and AI processing that are helping users to augment  problem solving skills as well their ability to handle and analyze massive datasets in cost-effective manner, keeping competitive with fast, actionable insights and optimized data management and usage of data, giving them an edge over the competition for opportunities in high demand.
