Comment on Ask HN: Who is actually doing something with "Big Data"?

Comments

I've been using Big Data techniques(using nosql and processes such as map-reduce) to do data analysis and to produce useful and actionable information. My data isn't super huge right now, my mongodb data directory is at about 33GB. It is a good start and useful for working out techniques that can be applied to much larger datasets.

Great! I've been looking for that sort of comment. Can you help me get started on some idea to build a data analysis tool to produce some useful results out of some large data that would normally take a lot of time for data analysts? I just want want to make a good hadoop POC. Technology no problem, I just want help some sort of idea on the idea side.
