Highlighting achievements in 8 categories
The 2017 Data Impact Awards recognize organizations’ achievements with the Cloudera platform across eight categories, classified into three overarching themes.
Business impact
This theme of categories showcases projects that generate top-line growth, bottom-line savings, increased competitive advantage, and/or net new revenue streams.
Technical impact
This theme of categories showcases technical innovation and improved efficiencies that impact the wider organization and your end customers.
Special impact
This theme of categories captures some of the unique use cases not represented in the other two themes, including impact outside the business sphere as well as for the newest users.
