Hadoop User Group UK Sept meetup

[Klaas Bosteels]

Hi all,

The next HUGUK meetup will take place on Mon 6th Sept at Skills
Matter, starting at 6PM. Cloudera is sending Mike Olson, their CEO, to
talk about their Hadoop distribution and Ian Wrigley to present their
exciting new log collector Flume, and Andy Kent will explain how
Forward does the clever data analysis that recently got some coverage
from Wired. In addition to all these great presentations, we'll also
get treated with a lightning talk by Ian Broadhead about the usage of
Hadoop at Playfish, the social gaming site from Electronic Arts, and
rumour has it there will be several attendants who are looking to hire
Hadoop developers and/or data analysts. So better register now before
it's too late:

Hope to see some of you there,
Klaas
