MapR Technologies, the Hadoop outfit, is launching European operations in
support of its growing community of customers and partners there.
Its new headquarters in London will provide MapR with a base for sales to
accelerate the adoption of its high-performance enterprise-grade Hadoop
distribution.
MapR CEO John Schroeder says, “There has been phenomenal Hadoop
demand across Europe.”
The new office will help support existing strategic agreements between
MapR and EMC, Google, Cisco and Amazon as well as system integration
partners across the region.
