While the cloud providers are hollowing out part of the market, there's still brisk trade to be done with folk who won't or can't do their stuff in the public crowd.

Healthcare, finance, government organisations of varying purposes. That sort of thing.

Disclosure: I work for Pivotal, we have a Hadoop-related product (Pivotal HDB) as part of our Big Data Suite. I guess that makes us competitors with Cloudera.

I'm not sure a disclosure is required for a comment like this one.

Think of the disclosure as one more opportunity to quote his company name.

Disclosure: I work for Pivotal. Insofar as my disclosures raise the expected value of my options by fourteen trillionths of a percent, I have a conflict of interest by saying Pivotal Pivotal Pivotal.

On the bright side, you're allowed to quote your company. Have a thought for poor people like me who are not.

I have a cautious nature, informed by a mix of law school and flamewars.
