BlueData, provider of a leading infrastructure software platform for Big Data, announced the spring release for the BlueData EPIC software platform. With this new product release, available immediately, BlueData introduces several new enhancements to provide enterprise-class security and quality of service (QoS) for multi-tenant Big Data deployments. In addition, BlueData continues to add support for new applications and frameworks to provide a simple, flexible, and extensible Big-Data-as-a-Service (BDaaS) environment on-premises.
Complexity remains a major barrier to adoption for Big Data technologies like Hadoop and Spark. BlueData’s software innovations make it easy to deploy Big Data infrastructure and applications, leveraging Docker containers to provide a self-service BDaaS experience on-premises together with the highest levels of security and performance for Big Data analytics in the enterprise.
This software release incorporates dozens of new features and functionality enhancements requested by BlueData’s rapidly growing roster of customers across multiple industries – including financial services, pharmaceutical, healthcare, technology, telecommunications, energy, government, and education. These customers selected the BlueData software platform for its game-changing ability to simplify and accelerate on-premises Big Data deployments, combined with its enterprise-grade functionality to support a wide range of use cases from initial prototyping to production environments.
The enterprise version of BlueData’s software platform now provides additional security and governance capabilities to meet enterprise-class auditing and regulatory compliance requirements. Other new functionality includes more granular resource management controls, QoS-based allocation, performance optimizations, and quota enforcement for multi-tenant Big Data deployments. Furthermore, BlueData has extended its support for Big Data applications and tools including Cloudera Navigator and Ranger for data governance and security administration; HAWQ for massively parallel processing analytics; and Geode (Gemfire) as well as Cassandra and Kafka for real-time analytics.
BlueData is working with customers in every industry and at all stages of their Big Data journey, from early experimentation and lab environments for dev/test to enterprise-wide production implementations,” said Kumar Sreekanti, CEO of BlueData. “Our solution is highly flexible and scalable, supporting any Big Data use case and accelerating our customers’ deployments as they move through each stage of their journey. This new spring release is another key milestone for us, solidifying BlueData’s position as the leading infrastructure platform for Big-Data-as-a-Service in the enterprise.”
