n the next few years, we will be routinely trying to use petabytes of data stored in multiple formats across different platforms. The volume and diversity of data make it extremely challenging to store, retrieve, analyze and utlize this information. Business, government agencies, and society needs experts with the skills and knowledge to design, develop and deploy complex information systems and applications that deal with multi-terabyte data sets.
It is not easy in terms of Digital archives to store terabytes and even petabytes of data in hundreds of data repositories supporting thousands of applications.
Maintaining such data repositories requires knowledge in ultra-large scale distributed systems, virtualization technologies, cloud computing, unstructured and semi-structured data management, optimization methods based on data replication and data migration, as well as in advanced data protection techniques.
In order to comprehensively analyze such volumes of information from disparate and various disciplines, information professionals will need to master advanced data integration techniques and business intelligence tools, crowdsourcing technologies, large-scale information fusion, data-intensive computation and semantic data management.
