Rocket Fuel's CTO, Mark Torrance, spoke at VentureBeat's DataBeat event in San Francisco on May 19, 2014. Mark's panel, "Data Driving Ad Targeting and Personalization," discussed how to best utilize first and third-party data to provide agencies and marketers with new levels of scale and relevance.

Rocket Fuel's chief architect, Abhijit Pol; systems engineer, Ishan Chhabra; and senior engineer, Shrijeet Paliwal, all spoke at HBaseCon 2014 in San Francisco on May 5. Attendees include Apache HBase contributors, developers, administrators, and users of all skill levels. The trio presented as part of the Case Studies Track, "Blackbird: Storing Billions of Rows a Couple of Milliseconds Away," discussing the system they built on top of HBase that makes billions of rich, anonymous user profiles available for real-time advertising decisions via Rocket Fuel's artificial intelligence platform.

"Rocket Fuel and other entrepreneurs and companies benefit greatly from the open source community," said George John, Rocket Fuel's Chairman and CEO.
