Hi Folks 15,000 people attended SXSW Interactive last year. As such, a couple of folks from the Apache Hadoop and Cassandra community have joined up to put together a "Big Data for everyone" panel at SXSW next year. The intent is to proselytize both the Online and Offline Big Data stack (incl. HBase, Pig, Hive, etc.) to the as yet uninformed. There are no agendas here other than getting the word out and educating the audience.
Acceptance to SXSW is partially democratic and community votes for the session greatly affect the outcome. If you have a few minutes, please sign up and vote for our panel. We'd really appreciate it. Voting closes on Friday. http://panelpicker.sxsw.com/ideas/view/7475 Regards Steve Watt
