Cloudera and Quest Software – working together in scale

June 30th, 2010 by Andy Grant

OK, so I tweaked some messaging that Cloudera is using in their video content on their website.  We had the chance to meet with the folks at Cloudera the other day to discuss the exciting opportunities that are avaialable to us due ot the new relationship that was developed with Quest Software.  Specifically, this relationship is based on a partnership to develop, support and distribute an Oracle connector for Hadoop.  My first comment about this is simply “wow”. To say that these people are incredibly smart and driven by the desire to provide accessibility to, management of; and, more importantly VALUE from distributed data to the market is somewhat of an understatement.  The Cloudera peeps are making their mark and it’s amazing to be able to work with them in doing so.  The Oracle – Hadoop connector is the basis of the relationship, but it’s going to be truly fun to not only contribute to the success of this partnership, but to also grow the relationship in creative and beneficial ways for our companies and the community.  Fun stuff!
