Please join us for a quick introduction to the residency program and get a chance to meet the authors that created the recently published Cloudera Data Platform Private Cloud Base with IBM Spectrum Scale where they will discuss their background, involvement in the solution, and the Redbooks authoring experience. This will be followed by a discussion of the solution and Q&As focused on the technology covered in this Redbooks publication.
