For ExxonMobil, Ares Trading (Merck), and the University of California San Diego (UCSD), the right strategy is taking full advantage of the cloud. All three organizations have partnered with Cloudera, leveraging a hybrid or cloud-based architecture to improve the lives of the people who depend on their organizations’ data.
