hadoopchat

This is where I have heard people think of a two-tier data strategy what I call first-class and second-class data strategy.

I think open data sharing is the need of time and business should not mind it. Offcourse business should not be strong DPA enforced.

less critical data on to #hadoop. but would love to hear problems in this approach / strategy

data sharing will be the norm in the near future. sharing data is power; many web scale companies are already doing this

@shankarsitarama I spoke with Tyler Bell @twbell at @Factual yesterday look at this company they are the platform for open data.

@shankarsitarama 1st class data is the active realtime data used in apps that needs to be "on hand". 3Par from @hpstorage has been a big winner in this kind of deployments

There is also a question about what they should do vs. others. Paradigm shift.

Thanks!

Is their any specific book to refer which can assist in the exam preparation?

yes come on in this is open chat

managing information on a system like peoplesoft is top concern so #hadoop brings ingestion of unstructured data a breeze; many collect data then act on it later

I think it should be possible with some training. It is not rocket science, I can say that. :)

Definitely I agree! I done some self study and it seems manageable to me.

IMO it is that paradigm shift from structured data to unstructured data that is essential for success.

I think that Hadoop will be a big standard and will eventually change datawarehouses like disk drives replaced tape. the innovation ontop of Hadoop will be the big thing imo

I feel the key to hadoop success is the enablement of good analytics and powerful usecases

@microsoft is getting deeper into #bigdata http://gigaom.com/2014/04/15/microsoft-is-trying-to-be-the-platform-company-for-big-data-apps-too/ says @derrickharris at @gigaom

@siliconangle had @jeffreyfkelly weights in on @microsoft #bigdata play http://siliconangle.com/blog/2014/04/15/the-data-economy-microsofts-cautious-big-data-vision/ when CEO was in SF last week

would love to hear thoughts about @microsoft move, what do you'll feel?

we see Hadoop as highly complementary and integrate with all distros as you know. The customers that are successful are those who align their use case(s) with the right technology for the job

Came across this article & thought did a good job highlighting differentiators for Cloudera vs. @Hortonworks @Pivotal http://www.infoworld.com/t/hadoop/how-cloudera-plans-stand-out-the-hadoop-herd-240828

@Pentaho saw that article they compared @cloudera to @gopivotal which paints cloudera as proprietary; Cloudera contributes way more to #hadoop than Pivotal by a long shot

Hadoop is very important; yes i've heard it's hard to deal with but its early; hyperscale mkt is for companies with deep domain expertise; relying on services from vendors only really is working at POCs not full deployment if no experise

this is why training is so huge; like in openstack for cloud anyone with expertise is getting hired fast; the need is to abstract the complexities away from installing & running #hadoop

I totally agree that training is key. by that i mean well designed trg that targets the specific complexities and builds skills in those areas

Agree - early adoption is key, new logo capture. If Hadoop firms follow "land and expand" methodology and provide great service and support, growth will come naturally. The leading and progressive firms will create a competitive advantage for themselves

I don't think generic training / courses of cloudera / hortonworks and even udacity, coursera etc. cut it.

Hadoop is not a rip n replace technology it works with lots of legacy and new vendor specific solutions; the line is where the use case is; it's a new model

this came up at the Percona Live event few weeks ago. Many see hadoop just as a data store nothing more; Some want more comprehensive solutions for low latency data at the app level

I've heard people talk of "first class" data and hadoop being used for "second class" data. would love to hear comments / take on this?

@furrier investors are interested in revolution but customers are more typically interested in evolution

$900 million investment; Cloudera disclosed that $540 million went to the company $360 paid out investors

Pure Storage another Greylock company raised huge round 225m indicates that Cloudera is playing the long game to stay true to their vision of building a disruptive platform; time to bake it out is key to their future; 500m in working capital nice

the old saying is "its hard to go out of business with money in the bank" boy they are really struggling - not
