In part 2 of the series focusing on the impact of evolving technology on the telecom industry, we sat down with Vijay Raja, Director of Industry & Solutions Marketing at Cloudera to get his views on how the sector is changing and where it goes next. Hi Vijay, thank you so much for joining us again. To continue where we left off, as industry players continue to shift toward a more 5G centric network, how is 5G impacting the industry from a data perspective?

Have you ever felt that, by looking at just numbers, that you are probably missing out on the bigger picture? That’s, of course, why we have visualizations – to form patterns out of those numbers that we can then interpret, as well as glean insights from and deepen our understanding of what the data reveals. Now, what if we bring numbers and visualizations together in a table, one way to explore those numbers and find hidden gems of meaning? Let’s have a look at mini charts!

There’s no doubt that cloud has become ubiquitous, and thank goodness for that in 2020. We wouldn’t have survived the challenges of this year without cloud. It’s supported everything, from the sudden changes in the way we work to the way we access healthcare and even shop for vital goods. While cloud is the vehicle, it’s what sits on it that makes it so valuable — data.

On August 18, we completed our Enterprise Data Cloud vision of bringing a truly hybrid cloud experience with the general availability of Cloudera Data Platform Private Cloud (CDP Private Cloud). CDP Private Cloud, which is based on Kubernetes (RedHat OpenShift), extends cloud-native speed, simplicity and economics for the connected data lifecycle to the on-prem world, enabling IT to respond to business needs faster and deliver rock-solid service levels so people can be more productive with data.

You can catch-up and read part 1 of the series, here. Thank you for joining us for part two of our discussion around data, analytics and machine learning within the Financial Service Sector Dr. Harmon.

With only about 35% of machine learning models making into production in the enterprise (IDC), it’s no wonder that production machine learning has become one of the most important focus areas for data scientists and ML engineers alike. As you may remember, we recently announced a full set of MLOps capabilities in Cloudera Machine Learning, our cloud native machine learning tool for the cloud.

Today, we announced the acquisition of the assets and IP of Knarr Analytics, an innovative start-up that provides real-time collaboration, sophisticated data exploration and insight capture capabilities, to complement Qlik’s cloud data and analytics platform.

In the last blog with Deloitte’s Marc Beierschoder, we talked about what the hybrid cloud is, why it can benefit a business and what the key blockers often are in implementation. You can read it here.
