6:30 – 7:00 Q & A

• What it takes to bring Hadoop to a production-ready state

While Hadoop may be a hot topic and is probably the buzziest big data term, the fact is that many Hadoop projects get stuck in pilot mode. We hear a number of reasons for this.

• “It’s too complicated.”

• “I don’t have the right resources.”

• “Security and compliance are never going to approve this.”

This session digs deep into why certain projects seem destined to remain in development. We’ll also cover what it takes to bring Hadoop to a production-ready state and convince management that it’s time to start using Hadoop to store and analyze real business data.

Attendees will leave the session knowing -The five most common reasons development projects on Hadoop get stalled.

How to overcome some of the biggest blockers to implementation including finding the right resources, providing training and securing the Hadoop environment.
