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

NEW YORK, Sept. 5, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- SQream announced today 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.

SQream DB has a proven track record helping organizations in finance, telecom, retail, ad tech, and more to reduce query times from days to hours and hours to minutes or even seconds, enabling them to significantly increase the amount of data they can analyze. In many cases, this results in the discovery of previously unobtainable insights that have direct ramifications on their business.

"Time and again, data analysts and scientists have no choice but to analyze subsets of Hadoop data, leaving troves of data unanalyzed at the cost of lost efficiencies, customer satisfaction, revenues, and business opportunities," said Ami Gal, CEO and co-founder of SQream. "To uncover these business-critical insights, data experts need fast, flexible, and direct access to their raw data. SQream DB brings mass data analytics as a complement to the Hadoop ecosystem, enabling organizations to generate faster, more accurate, and previously unobtainable insights."
