Mountain View, CA (PRWEB) October 21, 2014 -- Qubole™, the award-winning provider of the next generation Cloud Big Data platform, announced that Ashish Thusoo, CEO and Co-Founder, will speak at the Ventana Research Summit on October 21, 2014.
Thusoo’s talk is titled “Utilizing Cloud to Embrace Data and Analytics” and will be presented as part of the Technology Innovation Exchange Sessions at the Summit. The session will begin at 2:00 PM Pacific, sandwiched between panels moderated by Ventana Research’s Mark Smith, CEO and Chief Research Officer, and Tony Cosentino, VP and Research Director.
“The Cloud, for all of the consumer buzz, is still underutilized by organizations who have so much to gain from scaling their Big Data efforts,” said Ashish Thusoo. “I’m excited to be presenting alongside other Ventana Award winners at the Summit and sharing best practices for migration.”
