Free Webinar: How BI & Data Science Gets Results
November 16, Online
Statistical/data science models can now run on Hadoop in a much more cost-effective manner than a few years ago. This results in fostering the convergence of traditional BI and Data Science disciplines (machine learning, artificial intelligence... etc). Join the discussion with an incredible panel including ODPi, 4C Decision, ZEPL, and Pivotal, as we'll share how this phenomenon is going to impact the Hadoop standard.

Tarmak is a new toolkit for managing and provisioning a Kubernetes cluster. It makes use of Packer, Puppet, Terraform and Docker to provide a degree of platform independence, but provides a higher-level CLI interface and good defaults for a secure, CI/CD ready cluster.
