Location: 1A 03

Who is this presentation for?

Big data architects (Spark and Hadoop), software providers, cloud architects, data executives, and data science managers

Description

The cloud is now the first choice for large-scale analytics, but organizations that have sunk investment into Hadoop on-premises are also challenged with maintaining operations. This can make a move to modern analytics platforms like Spark difficult or impossible. Paul Scott-Murphy dives into innovations for large-scale migration that can take full advantage of cloud-based analytics without disrupting operations.

This session is sponsored by WANdisco.
