Top insights into the evolving role of the CTO | #BestoftheCUBE
Some of the brightest minds in technology visit theCUBE, from the SiliconANGLE Media team, to explore the industry’s latest innovations or areas where the science needs to catch up with the needs of the enterprise.
The topics on the minds of many Chief Technology Officers (CTO) ranged from teamwork and open source to the lack of skilled resources. Here are just a few of the many interviews that exposed the issues facing today’s CTO.
Bill Schmarzo & Aidan O’Brien
Bill Schmarzo, CTO of EMC, and Aidan O’Brien, senior director of EMC, stopped by theCUBE at BigDataNYC 2015 to offer insight into the success that teamwork in Big Data is happening when there is a willingness to share data in a company.

Mike Tamir
Although Mike Tamir, chief science officer and executive VP of data science and education at Galvanize, Inc., is not technically titled CTO, he brought a great deal of insight to theCUBE when he visited during IBM Insight 2015. He discussed the huge demand for highly skilled data scientists and the lack of supply throughout the industry.

Scott Gnau
According to Hortonworks, Inc. CTO Scott Gnau, “You cannot ‘out innovate’ the open-community model.” When Gnau joined theCUBE during BigDataNYC 2015, he described his company’s strategy as focusing on making the core better and leveraging the open community instead of beginning new projects.

Scott Gnau & Ron Bodkin
Dave Vellante of theCUBE invited Ron Bodkin and Scott Gnau to a discussion at BigDataNYC 2015 to share their thoughts on the future of Big Data. Bodkin is the founder and president of Think Big, a Teradata Corp. Company, and Gnau is the CTO at Hortonworks, Inc.
