Edd Dumbill | Strata Data Conference 2013
Edd Dumbill joins SiliconAngle's John Furrier and Wikibon Analyst Dave Vellante inside theCUBE at Strata Conference 2013. Dumbill is the Principal Analyst for O'Reilly Radar and Program Chair for the O'Reilly Strata Conference. Dumbill has hosted Strata in previous years, so he is no stranger to the event. In the 2013 interview, he shares his view on Big Data and where he sees it going. Dumbill makes mention of Facebook's cold servers, (servers whose sole purpose for exsistence are to store old data namely photograph's, that will never be used or viewed again), when discussing the topic of data storage and data management. This prompted John Furrier to make mention of Intel's offering of Hadoop, which will store that type of "useless" data down to the chip level, leaving room for "performance and security.
