Ecommerce incubator builds Hadoop-based behaviour analysis system
The analysis platform will be used to examine the activities of people visiting the websites Rocket supports. Since 2007, Rocket Internet has supported the development of several companies, including Alando, which was sold to eBay, and BillPay, which was sold to wonga.com.
