Come listen to Adam walk through these issues and focus on getting you a big data lab of your very own, for free! We'll cover tools, vendor options, training you can do on your own. All for free in the spirit of good open source! There are a lot of options out there for you to begin to experiment and tinker. Have a great time and learn from those who have gone before you.
