"Karmasphere was founded based on the realization that organizations need new big data strategies, technologies and techniques to be successful, so I enthusiastically accepted the opportunity to chair this event," said Hall. "Strata's Enterprise Big Data day lays out the roadmap to get organizations up to speed on big data. Attendees will hear about the issues of managing data and learn how to use data science powerfully in their organization."

"For instance, the "Big Data is a Business Problem" presentation dives into how the relationship between IT and business must change for big data implementations to succeed. And, in the "Data Wrangling: Making People Productive with Data" session, attendees will learn how to avoid productivity bottlenecks in data analysis."

The program's chair, Martin Hall, brings a strong entrepreneurial track record and a history of pioneering new Internet technologies and markets.
