Ron Bodkin - Hadoop Summit 2013 - Studio B - #HadoopSummit
Ron Bodkin, Think Big Analytics, at Hadoop Summit 2013 with Winston Edmondson. Los Altos based services provider, Think Big Analytics, was founded by Rod Bodkin. Rod was in attendance at the 2013 Hadoop Summit and was invited to join SiliconAngle Head Writer, Winston Edmondson, inside theCUBE, for Bodkins thoughts on the event. EMC's Jeffrey Kelley gives offers us the following backround information on the service provider, Think Big Analytics: "Think Big Analytics provides its customers a one-week "brainstorming" session to both educate them as to what Hadoop can and cannot do, and to identify the areas of the business that would most benefit from the use of Hadoop. The brainstorming session is followed by a six-week implementation process that the company says results in "a robust platform for launching a real time data architecture and the new business solutions that rely on its data." "Though the company is just a year old, it already boasts a number of Fortune 500 customers, as well as Bodkin's alma mater Quantcas." @thecube #hadoopsummit
