What are the benefits of becoming a Cloudera Service Provider

abhishes — Thu, 01 Jan 2015 20:15:07 GMT

My organization is a services and consulting company.

I am reading this PDF http://blog.cloudera.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Cloudera-Connect-Program-Overview.pdf

but upon reading this its still not clear to me that what is the benefit for a services and consulting company to become a cloudera service provider.

is there some other material on this?

** Please forgive if this is not the right place to post this. I could not find any forum which was suitable to post this question. **

Abhishek,

That brochure is extremely out of date and thus we have just taken it offline.

I looked at the URL which you gave me and its still very thin for Service providers. it just says

Service providers deliver Apache Hadoop-based solutions and services to end users interested in leveraging Cloudera’s training resources, support and brand.

* How is the support offered to a partner any different from normal cludera support which I get if I purchase Data Hub Edition?

* Are there regular training events? or just 1 training which you give at the time of signing up the partner agreement? If there are perioidic trainings then is there a schedule for these partner trainings?

* Can you eloborate on what "brand" means above?
