Hadoop Summit Brings Exciting Announcements
July 4, 2013
Hadoop Summit began on June 26 in San Jose and the opening day alone brought several exciting announcements. Conference season is a great time for companies to make big announcements and ride the momentum. Andrew Brust for ZD Net covers the opening day festivities in his story, “Hadoop Summit Opening Day Brings Multiple Announcements.”
He begins:
“Big Data companies love to partner, and release new products, and they especially love to synchronize the announcement of those team-ups and releases with major Big Data conferences. Today is the first day of the 2-day Hadoop Summit conference in San Jose, and several announcements have already come in.”
MapR/Fusion-io and Zettaset/Informatica announced new partnerships, and Couchbase announced a new release. LucidWorks was a major sponsor of the event, as they incorporate Hadoop technology into their product offerings: LucidWorks Search and LucidWorks Big Data. As more and more open source vendors cooperate, the technology just keeps getting better and better, growing by leaps and bounds. Enterprises no longer have a reason to dismiss open source technology – it is here to stay.
