Yahoo plans to host a summit / workshop on Apache Hadoop at our Sunnyvale campus on March 25th. Given the interest we are seeing from developers in a broad range of organizations, this seems like a good time to get together and brief each other on the progress that is being made.
We would like to cover topics in the areas of extensions being developed for Hadoop, innovative applications being built and deployed on Hadoop, and future extensions to the platform. Some of the speakers who have already committed to present are from organizations such as IBM, Intel, Carnegie Mellon University, UC Berkeley, Facebook and Yahoo!, and we are actively recruiting other leaders in the space. If you have an innovative application you would like to talk about, please let us know. Although there are limitations on the amount of time we have, we would love to hear from you. You can contact me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thanks and looking forward to hearing about your cool apps, Ajay
