It has 11 chapters. It will good, if readers can read some chapters online... Anyway, readers will see:
Chapter 1: We consider the market conditions that have enabled broad acceptance of big data analytics, including commoditization of hardware and software, increased data volumes, growing variation in types of data assets for analysis, different methods for data delivery, and increased expectations for real-time integration of analytical results into operational processes.In a book, it assists readers about Big Data. It still gives readers about exercises in each chapter, that will help readers think and imagine about big picture for each topic and then able to use idea/knowledge what they read in their work.
Chapter 2: In this chapter, we look at the characteristics of business problems that traditionally have required resources that exceeded the enterprises’ scopes, yet are suited to solutions that can take advantage of the big data platforms (either dedicated hardware or virtualized/cloud based).
Chapter 3: Who in the organization needs to be involved in the process of acquiring, proving, and deploying big data solutions? And what are their roles and responsibilities? This chapter looks at the adoption of new technology and how the organization must align to integrate into the system development life cycle.

Chapter 5: In this chapter, we look at the need for oversight and governance for the data, especially when those developing big data applications often bypass traditional IT and data management channels.
Chapter 6: In this chapter, we look at specialty-hardware designed for analytics and how they are engineered to accommodate large data sets.
Chapter 7: This chapter discusses and provides a high-level overview of tool suites such as Hadoop.
Chapter 8: This chapter examines the MapReduce programming model.
Chapter 9: In this chapter, we look at a variety of alternative methods of data management methods that are being adopted for big data application development.
