Webinar – Optimizing Data Analytics in a Hybrid Cloud World – (April 21st @ 1pm ET)
Most companies are not “born in the cloud.” They need to work with data that is scattered across operational databases, data warehouses, and data lakes, each of which may be in the corporate data center or the major public clouds. This distributed, dispersed nature of data should be embraced, as it is an integral part of analytics.
GigaOm and Starburst are partnering for this webinar to explore using a unified data consumption and access layer, like Presto, that is optimized for performance and ready for data distributed across platforms and physical locations. Register Here
