SQream Announces Hadoop SQL Big Data Challenge to Unlock Business Critical Insights

Users Can Uncover Previously Unobtainable Insights and Achieve up to 100X Faster Query Results from Massive Hadoop Data Stores

SQream announced the kickoff of its Hadoop SQL Big Data Challenge, in advance of the upcoming Strata Data Conference in New York. In this challenge, SQream will take on the biggest SQL query challenges facing Hadoop professionals. Qualified participants will be invited to install SQream DB alongside Hadoop to significantly reduce the time it takes to execute their most difficult queries.

Users commonly suffer from lengthy data ingest and preparation times, and long-running queries that take days or hours, or never complete due to an overload on system resources. These query issues hinder data analysts and scientists from exploring their data, which can have a direct impact on company revenue, customer satisfaction, risk management and competitive advantage.
