Presentation Summary
Data are assets that enrich yet burden organizations at the same time. The multitude of challenges from data storage to data security, from the edge to the cloud, are forcing end-user organizations to look beyond traditional solutions offered by vendors. Many are turning to SODA Foundation, an open source project under Linux Foundation, which offers a neutral forum for data and storage collaboration and innovation.
Kei Kusunoki and Steven Tan introduced the projects in the SODA ecosystem and how these projects help end-users address their data and storage challenges. Tomoko Kondo of Softbank discussed their data lake use case scenario and shared the blueprint for a data lake project that can address their challenges.
