Four myths of Big Data Analytics:

1. If you want to build a big data system you have to use Hadoop–way too narrow of a perspective
2. Big data always provides better answers–not always true
3. Data Science is a science–if you only focus on the science, you are going to fail
4. Actionable insights is the goal for big data analytics or any analytics–that’s just plain wrong.
