Go global with data science at Datapalooza

Over at Data-Mania, I've started a blog series on analytics as a service, specifically focusing on IBM's Watson Analytics technology. I originally planned this series because I wanted to quash some recurring worries I've heard among the data science community. Accordingly, I'll be demonstrating that IBM's Watson Analytics technology was unequivocally not designed to annihilate the careers of data science professionals. What's more, I'll be underscoring just how much IBM is doing to foster, cultivate and enrich the careers of working professionals in the big data and data science space. The Datapalooza event is one major avenue by which IBM is supporting the data science community, seeking to educate the "next generation of data scientists on how to apply their minds, creativity, and tools in the creation of innovative data products." That sounds pretty cool, right?
