‘Opportunity lies in the government and mid-tier’
verticalizing our team into central, state, public sector undertaking, and defense. Also, we are now trying to follow a more mature model. With some state MMPS being rolled out, states are onto their journey of building their own infrastructure and solutions. Hence we thinking about ways to engage with the states.
In order to ensure that we continue doing well in the public sector, we have a dedicated team which is focused on identifying 9-10 deals and going after that. Soon in defense, too, we will start seeing the results.
How are you leveraging the Greenplum acquisition in the Indian context?
Greenplum paves the way for big data and analytics in big data. Since wherever you have a large customer base, you want real-time information, which should be integrated with some aspects of social media. Hence from the perspective of real-time analytics, Greenplum analytics plays a critical role and it is relevant for industries that are future oriented. It fits into cloud and big data.
How big is the big data opportunity?
Information is growing at an impossible speed which is all about unstructured data. Simultaneously, it’s difficult to store such data. Therefore we have products that help in storing all of the structured and unstructured data. But the key question is how to put all information together for business and workflow. Greenplum addresses this by putting big data onto storage and then building analytics around it. So, you combine social media and unstructured data and then create something that your customers will value and will accelerate your business.
