Hi Folks,
Here are my slides from the IBM big data symposium. This was a good event. IBM announced a new release of their Apache Hadoop based Big Insights platform. It is great to hear their commitment to Apache. Yahoo was there talking about our experiences and uses of Hadoop. I got a lot of questions about why we invest in Hadoop, so let me point you back to my post on that and our commitment to Apache Hadoop. (http://yhoo.it/e8p3Dd and http://yhoo.it/i9Ww8W)
Thanks,
