Hi Vicki,
Thank you for this insightful article. I have sooo many questions...
But I will keep it short. ;))

In your article you mentioned Hadoop, do you have any interesting tutorials or hands-on demos that you can recommend?

The complement of Hadoop seems (too me) to be Docker. Do you work with it much? Do you see companies migrating toward it? Comments?

One more thing, Bioinformaticians are another pipeline into D.S. ;P

Thank You,
Matt

Hi Matt,

Hadoop is already on its way out, but it never hurts to learn. If you really want to go this route, I'd recommend studying for a Cloudera certification, which will get you some hands-on work with it. I'd instead now recommend learning Spark. Hadoop and Docker aren't really related.
