O’Reilly’s Strata Conference brings together the leading minds in Big Data, learning from the decision makers currently using the power of Big Data to drive business strategy, as well as the practitioners who collect, analyze, and manipulate the data.
What to expect
.
This year we’ll be looking at Big Data deployments, now that the industry has had a few years to toy around with frameworks like Hadoop. Now that play time is over, the enterprise is looking for the best way to roll out a true Big Data solution, so looking at the real-world implications of these deployments will be a key study during the Strata conference.
That means we’ll be drilling down into the specifics of Big Data deployments, at the operational level. What’s it mean for your business’ cloud strategy? What’s the most cost-effective way to go about Big Data? How can Big Data be secured, and what should you look for in a data scientist?
