,----[ Quote ]
| Does using open source software pay off in a total cost sense when compared
| to commercial offerings today? Is it worth the usually lower cost, or will an
| enterprise that casts its lot with FOSS be trapped in a high-risk situation
| where they can't get support and innovation?

,----[ Quote ]
| But Cloudera has heavyweight backing. It has raised money from venture
| capital group Accel Partners (though admittedly only a tepid $5 million). And
| its array of additional investors reads like a list of tech glitterati,
| including Marten Mickos, former MySQL CEO, and Diane Green, former VMware
| CEO.

Cloudera floats commercial Hadoop distro
,----[ Quote ]
| The analogy with Linux is plain enough: They want something akin to the
