Big announcement on #theCUBE with @jameskobielus #sparkinsight

Spark is an immature market, but so was Hadoop 5 years ago, and look at where Hadoop is now -- IBM Big Data Evangelist James Kobielus live on #theCUBE

#IBM recognizes that the #spark and #hadoop were a growing phenomenon in technology #sparkinsight

We want to show that IBM understands the importance of Spark. We announced today the Spark Innovation Center in San Francisco. Also announcing a beta of Spark on BlueMix -- IBM Big Data Evangelist James Kobielus live on #theCUBE

Also announced Spark inside the Watson Health Cloud.

We want to show the industry that #IBM is committed to #opensource and #spark #sparkinsight

IBM announces an #OpenSource Development center for #IBM and their partners to work on #Spark platforms. #sparkinsight with @jameskobielus

It’s a strong ongoing commitment to Spark from senior executives on down. We have been working on these things for a couple of years, and this is the big coming-out party - IBM Big Data Evangelist James Kobielus live on #theCUBE

"Spark is a compliment to Hadoop, not a substitute"
#SparkInsight

#Spark is a compliment to #hadoop. Not an augmentation. @jameskobielus on #theCUBE #sparkinsight

Spark is a compliment to Hadoop & Map Reduce, not an alternative - IBM Big Data Evangelist James Kobielus live on #theCUBE

machine learning, #IoT and integrated stacks is what #spark is ideal for #sparkinsight

If a customer is using wearables, #Spark #data stream is as close to #realtime and behavioral data as you can get. We are now able to find the patterns relating to individual relationships and look at what the customer is responding to. -@jameskobielus

With #spark, You can serve the customer better for realtime use cases. - @jameskobielus on #theCUBE #sparkinsight

#IMB is investing a lot of resources into the education of #Spark. For example: #bigdata University and places like #Galvanize are great places to start learning! @jameskobielus on @thecube #theCUBE #SparkInsight #bigdata #machinelearning

Spark is geared toward massively parallel iterative modeling of data, graph analytics & so forth - IBM Big Data Evangelist James Kobielus live on #theCUBE

Spark is geared towards exploration and it is an in memory platform. @jameskobielus and #theCUBE at #SparkInsight

Hadoop is basically mature now. I think #Spark will be where #Hadoop is in 2-3 years. #IBM Big Data Evangelist James Kobielus live on #theCUBE

#spark is the analytics operating system to unlock the value behind #bigdata

Spark is the analytics operating system (for the data economy)
- @BethTSmith f/ #IBM on #theCUBE
#Spark @SparkInsight

It's about having universal access to data to get intelligence to applications and systems

#spark is committed to training a million data scientists around the world to understand #spark. - @BethTSmith on #theCUBE #sparkinsight

We all know that data's the next natural resource,.... it's about unlocking insight in that data
- @BethTSmith f/ #IBM on #theCUBE
#Spark @SparkInsight #BigData

#Spark as a service will be available in #Bluemix at #IBM #sparkinsight

An operating system is like a nervous system, provides the underpinning for the solutions above it
- @BethTSmith f/ #IBM on #theCUBE
#Spark @SparkInsight #BigData

We’ll have a number of different places where Spark will show up., it’s an underpinning for solutions above it. - #IBM Analytics Platform General Manager Beth Smith live on #theCUBE

If you think about this being the decade of data & analytics it is the community around that. Open Source is a big part of that community. - #IBM Analytics Platform General Manager Beth Smith live on #theCUBE

At the end of the day, it's about Innovation, and innovation comes from community

The man himself @JSHorwitz http://bits.blogs.ny... #newyorktimes #sparkinsight

Why #spark? "It's a new generation; It's a #newway of thinking about #data."

We're making data fun again. Worldwide Director of Marketing for the #IBM Analytics Platform Joel Horwitz

The driving factor is anyone can use this platform.- @JSHorwitz on #theCUBE at #SparkInsight #bigdata

@arianagradow its all about the community

We’ve reached this inflection point. There’s a whole generation of creative people who can pick this up now and use it without any barrier to entry - Worldwide Director of Marketing for the #IBM Analytics Platform Joel Horwitz live on #theCUBE

Joel Horwitz: The more we can shorten the agile dev. cycle time, between insight & action, the better everyone will be. #SparkInsight

"#datalakes are becoming a #datamarsh because the data just sits there... until #spark gets involved." - @JSHorwitz on #theCUBE at #SparkInsight #bigdata

#sparkinsight California is where the action is because people share more and technology cuts through the noise

This is the start of a new beginning. First, we need to train more developers and then we are going to be driving hard to getting #Spark out there and into the hands of the Business owners. -@JSHorwitz on #theCUBE at #SparkInsight #bigdata

"We put students in a classroom that is in an industry environment." -@MikeTamir Chief Science Officer, @Galvanize on #theCUBE #sparkinsight

I like to describe Galvanze as a "teaching hospital" for data scientists

The appetite is huge. You're seeing machine learning in action.
- Mike Tamir f/ @Galvanize LIVE on #theCUBE
#Spark #SparkInsight #BigData

We’re all seeing machine learning every day in Amazon, Google, etc. A lot of people want to learn how that works and improve on it. Galvanize Chief Science Officer @MikeTamir live on #theCUBE from #IBM #SparkInsight

Things are moving faster than they did in the past, because of increased connectivity, really accelerating open source (people are connected all over the world)
