At Strata Data, it appeared that artificial intelligence, machine learning, and the promise of game-changing insights from big data were at the forefront of everyone’s mind. Cloudera aimed to demystify the “how” in the AI and big data equation at Strata Data through helpful sessions, anticipated keynotes, and new product announcements to alleviate the mystery associated with leveraging this revolutionary technology. Amongst these activities, the Cloudera Partner Summit is the key event that highlights the Cloudera partner ecosystem and its contribution to AI/ML through real-life use cases.

The Cloudera Partner Summit is the yearly gathering of Cloudera partners, who are also in town attending Strata Data in New York. This year, the Cloudera Partner Summit was held at the New York Stock Exchange on September 11 and the event included sharing of latest news from Cloudera executives, cutting-edge trends in products and technologies (machine learning, analytics, and cloud), updates on Cloudera’s partner strategy, as well as a celebration of partnering success at the partner awards ceremony.
