They touched on a variety of key announcements, including the “fallout from the ODP.” “In general,” Furrier commented, his impression is that “the big guys are aligning.” EMC in particular “is looking really good,” Furrier added, recounting how EMC plans to reinvent itself. The tech giant describes this strategy as “putting itself out of business” as it goes through the process of “reinventing its own future.” EMC is accomplishing their goals by dividing its efforts between two divisions: the “bread and butter” division that “pays the freight” and a new emerging tech group that fosters innovation and experimental technology. Furrier pointed out that Hortonworks Inc. has also had a prominent presence at the conference. Despite the fusion he saw of analytics with applications, Furrier wondered whether there was any “meat on the bone.” Kelly had similar reservations, commenting, “we’re still waiting.” Kelly also called out that there has been a greater focus on analytics at Hadoop World. Big Data, he said, “is getting to the next step.” Rather than just saving companies money, Big Data users are finding ways of “driving new revenue.” There’s a “ton of innovation happening,” Kelly said, although it “takes some time to coalesce around the application.”
