A very good reference for an organization adopting Cloud and Big Data is -  EMC's IT Team . At EMC World 2012, the team shared some insight into the new roles gaining wider adoption in their journey to IT-as a service.  Here are interesting shots from the session : 

Data visualization  is the study of the visual representation of data, meaning "information that has been abstracted in some schematic form, including attributes or variables for the units of information". The Human Face of Big Data   is a global, crowdsourced media project focusing on humanity's new ability to collect, analyze and visualize vast amounts of data in real time.   Data visualizations help paint a picture of how Big Data affects and measures our lives. These revealing new interactive data visualizations were created for The Human Face of Big Data project Mission Control. A team of designers and data scientists from EMC Cloud Services, EMC Greenplum, and Tableau Software analyzed one billion unique global tweets from Twitter, along with other data, to amplify themes and stories from the project. A data set of approximately 170 billion unique data elements was drawn from the billion tweets and loaded into an EMC Greenplum Data Computing A...
