I started this blog to share hints, tips, and tidbits of information to help others who are also on the journey to becoming an expert with Pivotal’s exciting technology.
Pivotal’s ambitious goal to provide a new generation of tools to help companies manage big data, get insights from that data, and put those insights into action with new applications faster than ever before is both an opportunity and a challenge. It’s an opportunity because of what we can do for our clients, but it’s a challenge because there is so much new technology to master. This new world brings together Data Science, tools from the Hadoop ecosystem, real-time in-memory data-grids, and agile development done using high level frameworks that help us deploy to cloud based environments where we can push our applications directly into the hands of our users with today's mobile devices.
If you don’t know where to start this journey, or if you are already well
into your journey but you could use a little help finding your way to that next
breakthrough, hopefully I can help. I don’t consider myself an expert in everything
- I told you I'm on this journey myself! However, years of experience has given me a bit of a head start, plus I have exceptional access to resources and information, and I have luxury of being able to focus exclusively
on Pivotal’s technology. So maybe I'm a little further along on my journey that most people. Hopefully I can
share some insights I've picked up on my journey, so you won’t have to discover the
path entirely on your own.
