This Federated Big Data Experimenting hub is a cooperative innovating environment, where large industry, SME and start-ups, and academia join forces to validate ideas for new Big Data products and services. This will be realised by proposing and executing small-size Big Data experiments on industry relevant data-sets for identified market challenges and to validate these new market opportunities.
The Big Data Experimentation Hub is a virtual data space using standards and common governance models to facilitate the secure exchange and easy linkage of data in business ecosystems. It thereby provides a basis for creating and experimenting new Big Data Value use cases, while at the same time ensuring digital sovereignty of data owners.
Verticals or domains can create their own solutions for Big Data experiments but this means that the speed to apply new tools to build novel solutions is slower.
