The Hadoop juggernaut keeps on rolling
Back at the end of August I put together a post where I stated that “Hadoop adoption seems to be accelerating“. Now, just a few months later, it is clear that the Hadoop juggernaut just keeps on rolling and that many organizations are adding it to their IT architectures.
Lets take a look at what has been going on (this is in addition to my September post which summarized the latest Hadoop news across Hortonworks, Cloudera and MapR) out there in the busy world of Hadoop.
Hortonworks results
On November 4th Hortonworks released their Q3 earnings. Their Q3 GAAP revenue came in at $33.1 Million up 159% from Q3 2014 and also up from the $30.7 million they reported for Q2. Their Q4 guidance of between $118.6 million and $120.6 million is also pretty healthy as it is above the guidance they provided in Q2 suggesting a strong customer interest they believe they can translate to sales.

9 å¹´Good read Mark. What is your assessment in terms of adopters finding the right skill set for these additions? I bet there are some interesting findings in terms of market edge in how quick the adopter(s) re-tool and how market is reacting to providing such skill set(s)? As always enjoy your insight. Keep 'em coming.
