The cloud provides an easy on-ramp to building and deploying Big Data solutions, particularly the latest technologies that favor scale-out architectures. Transitioning from initial deployment to a large-scale, highly performant operation may not be as easy.
Understanding the benefits, weaknesses, and performance characteristics of public cloud and bare metal cloud deployments can help you make the right decisions.
In his session at the 12th International Cloud Expo, Marc Jones, VP of Product Innovation for SoftLayer, will provide some insight into how to select the correct deployment strategy based on your Big Data application’s needs. This insight is based on SoftLayer’s extensive testing while creating Big Data solutions on our bare metal cloud platform.
