Information technology has been at the heart of governments around the world, enabling them to deliver vital citizen services, such as healthcare, transportation, employment, and national security. All of these functions rest on technology and share a valuable commodity: data. Data is produced and consumed in ever-increasing amounts and therefore must be protected. After all, […]
Apache Ozone is a distributed, scalable, and high-performance object store, available with Cloudera Data Platform (CDP), that can scale to billions of objects of varying sizes. It was designed as a native object store to provide extreme scale, performance, and reliability to handle multiple analytics workloads using either S3 API or the traditional Hadoop API. […]
Data is the fuel that drives government, enables transparency, and powers citizen services. But while state and local governments seek to improve policies, decision making, and the services constituents rely upon, data silos create accessibility and sharing challenges that hinder public sector agencies from transforming their data into a strategic asset and leveraging it for […]

But information broadly, and the management of data specifically, is still “the” critical factor for situational awareness, streamlined operations, and a host of other use cases across today’s tech-driven […]
Fine grained access control (FGAC) with Spark Apache Spark with its rich data APIs has been the processing engine of choice in a wide range of applications from data engineering to machine learning, but its security integration has been a pain point. Many enterprise customers need finer granularity of control, in particular at the column […]
Much of the hype around big data and analytics focuses on business value and bottom-line impacts. Those are enormously important in the private and public sectors alike. But for government agencies, there is a greater mission: improving people’s lives. Data makes the most ambitious and even idealistic goals—like making the world a better place—possible. This […]
Here at Cloudera, we’re committed to helping make the lives of data practitioners as painless as possible. For data scientists, we continue to provide new Applied Machine Learning Prototypes (AMPs), which are open source and available on GitHub. These pre-built reference examples are complete end-to-end data science projects. In Cloudera Machine Learning (CML), you can […]
