apR Technologies, Inc, a pioneer in delivering one
platform for all data, across every cloud, has announced
breakthrough capabilities for building powerful, real-time
streaming and global IoT applications. New enhancements to the
MapR Converged Data Platform release 6.0.1 and MapR Expansion
Pack 5.0, including Event Streams (MapR-ES), Apache Spark and

analytics that can be used to divide and aggregate the streams into
hundreds-of-thousands of logical topics.
