Squeezing more value out of data | #HadoopSummit
Cloudera, Inc.’s Todd Laurence, director, global partner sales, and Michael Crutcher, director of product management, joined theCUBE, SiliconANGLE’s Media team, at Hadoop Summit 2015 to discuss how Cloudera’s close relationship with EMC is benefiting its Isilon scale-out NAS storage customers and “bringing analytics to data where it lives today in EMC Isilon.”
Cloudera adds capability on top of EMC Isilon deep storage
According to Laurence, the value proposition of Hadoop to the EMC Isilon customer is different to the market as a whole.
“What drives (Isilon) customers is that Cloudera adds capability on top of the deep storage that Isilon provides,” he said. “They are not looking for a new solution, but want more value out of data they already have in their data lake.”
As a software company, Cloudera’s long history with Cloud computing gives the company a knowledge base that is leveraged to the customer’s benefit through the application of existing solutions to new problems. However, Cloudera does not aspire to be a solutions provider.
Laurence told theCUBE, “Our global systems integrator partners are the folks that are working with us to take what we have done; we have all the assets, but we don’t aspire to be an applications company.”
