MemSQL could be a good fit if you need a SQL-based data warehousing tool. They have pretty good integration with Kafka and BI tools.

For my use case I would prefer to have 100% of system resources on one OS. Also, I'm coming from a Mac and would prefer the "integrated" feel if that makes sense

As with most things, I think that it is a trade off. There is a very delicate balance between security and privacy.

Too much surveillance

- General public feels incredibly uncomfortable due to lack of privacy

- An incredibly scary amount of power in the hands of whoever has access to that information ( and who knows what they will do with it )

- Reduced risk of terrorism and security concerns

Too little

- Increased risk of terrorism + massive security concerns due to lack of intelligence ( it's like trying to find a needle in a huge haystack )

- Public feels safe due to perceived increased privacy and yet feels unsafe due to ( potentially ) increased number of terrorist incidents.

It's a rather difficult problem to solve. How can we extract critical security information without invading people's privacy?

Looks to be a really interesting article. Would really appreciate a font change and justified text though.

This is a really lovely story. I'm not usually one to be sentimental bit this has got me thinking of my priorities in life.

Curious how Microsoft can enter the market this openly. Don't they have an agreement of some sort with hardware manufacturers ( HP, Dell etc) that they won't enter the market?
