Cloud Expo Silicon Valley: Big Data Alchemy – Turning Big Iron into Gold!
We all see the potential value of Big Data systems – they allow us to distill golden nuggets of information from reams of customer data where it has lied dormant waiting to be freed. However, while the benefits of the Big Data dream are clear, there are a lot of nightmares that we must overcome to make that dream a reality. Managing massive bits of iron in the form of large server farms with petabytes of information is not for the faint of heart. What if there were a way to skip to the dream – deploy Big Data systems, access them from anywhere, without the nightmares?
In his session at the 11th International Cloud Expo, join Gordon Crenshaw, Sr. Solutions Consultant at Progress Software, and DataDirect’s Big Data alchemists as he shows you how to make this dream a reality.

Since we introduced our App Status Dashboards page, it has proven to be our most popular offering.

The OpenStack community and commercial ecosystem are not mutually exclusive.

Cloud Expo Silicon Valley: Impact of Big Data & Cloud on Data Connectivity
How can we regain control of our data and get a complete view of critical information, while still reaping the many benefits that SaaS has to offer? The explosion in Software as a Service has changed the world of data access dramatically. Business critical information that was once within the four walls of the organization is now locked in a variety of SaaS applications deployed on the public Internet. This presents a serious challenge to business decision makers who are driven to make the right choices for their organizations based on a now incomplete picture of the world.
In his General Session at the 11th International Cloud Expo, Michael Benedict, Vice President and Business Line Manager at Progress Software, will look at how you overcome these challenges and regain full visibility to your business data wherever it may live.
