Mountain View, CA (PRWEB) January 14, 2014 -- Qubole™, a leading provider of the next generation Cloud Big Data platform, is proud to feature Ovum Research’s Tony Baer in the next webinar of the ‘Secrets from the Pros’ series. On Wednesday, January 15, 2014 at 11:00 AM PST, Baer will join Qubole CEO Ashish Thusoo to present “Big Data in No Time: Getting Started with Big Data Quickly”.
As the barriers of entry to Big Data have reduced dramatically, enterprises of all sizes can take advantage of the technology. The only question is, what is the easiest way to get started?
Thusoo and Baer will bring their expertise to the public in this free webinar, in which attendees will learn about:
• The impact that Cloud-based Big Data has had on IT operations, data centers, and the enterprise.
• Real world Big Data use cases in the enterprise: customer churn analysis, sales and marketing, and operations improvement.
• How to leverage existing talent and resources (ie. SQL, Java skills) into immediate Hadoop success.
• Best practices for solving familiar problems in more efficient ways using Hadoop.
“Technology has revolutionized the way that enterprises tackle their business problems, while the Cloud has brought those tools to companies of all sizes. I am excited to have Tony Baer participate in this webinar to discuss how easy it is to get started in Big Data,” said Ashish Thusoo.
