Big Data Thought Leader Mark Madsen to Join SnapLogic's Building the Enterprise Data Lake Interactive Webinar

SAN MATEO, CA--(Marketwired - Nov 19, 2015) - SnapLogic, the only enterprise integration platform as a service (iPaaS) built for big data, today announced Mark Madsen, industry analyst with Third Nature, will be a featured speaker in SnapLogic's upcoming interactive webinar. He will be joined by Craig Stewart, SnapLogic's Senior Director of Product Management, and Erin Curtis, SnapLogic's Senior Director of Product Marketing to discuss the future of big data and importance of the new enterprise data lake reference architecture.

"Building a data lake requires thinking about the capabilities needed in the system," said Mark Madsen, Industry Analyst with Third Nature. "This is a bigger problem than just installing and using open source projects on top of Hadoop. Just as data integration is the foundation of the data warehouse, an end-to-end data processing capability is the core of the data lake. The new environment needs a new workhorse."

This interactive webinar will cover what is important when building a modern, multi-use data infrastructure, the difference between a Hadoop application vs. data lake infrastructure and the new enterprise data lake reference architecture.
