Tableau Tech Talk: Help People See and Understand Their Data
1/21; 6pm-7pm; EEB125
Come learn how Tableau Software is changing the big data industry by democratizing data. Similar to how desktop publishing or the spreadsheet put powerful tools into the hands of the people who needed to use them, Tableau gives people the ability to visualize and analyze their own data. Learn how doctors, scientists, programmers, and even gamers are empowered to discover their data at the speed of thought. We are on a mission to fundamentally change the way people interact with their data. Come and see.
Tableau Software is one of the fastest growing technology companies in the world. Tableau makes fast analytics and visualization products that help people see and understand data of any size or format.

Whitepages Tech Talk: Scalability Sucks
1/16; 6-7:30pm; EEB125
By: Dr. Steve Hanks, Principal Data Scientist, WhitePages.com For all CSE students who want to learn more about scalability. The world of Scalability is glamorous and magical: we get to use cool technologies with sexy names, and magical things happen, we have a tough problem and we throw a Scalability Technology at it, and results flow quickly and easily…..or so it seems from the outside and/or in the classroom. Our experience (WhitePages Data Group) has been a quite different. We have significant, challenging problems of scale, both in the size of our data artifacts, and in the number of updates we have to process to keep it accurate and up to date. But our day-to-day lives are much more mundane than the glamorous world where Hadoop meets NoSql meets Scala, and results flow smoothly, and bigger problems are solved by bolting on a node or two. While we are heavy users of Hadoop, are typically running EC2 instances in the hundreds, and are exploring three of four alternatives to Postgres, we have found no “silver bullet” technology, cutting-edge or otherwise. Rather, for us, scaling problems tend to be insidious and move around a lot, and we feel like firefighters (or worse, like mole-whackers) at least as often as we feel like Data Scientists. While we are heavy users of Hadoop, typically running EC2 instances in the hundreds and exploring three or four alternatives to Postgres, we have found no “silver bullet” technology, cutting-edge or otherwise.
