Cloudera announces its Data Warehouse for Hybrid Cloud

Cloudera has announced the general availability of Cloudera Data Warehouse. Cloudera Data Warehouse is a modern hybrid cloud data warehouse, trusted by nearly 800 large enterprises to store, analyze and manage data in public clouds and on-premises. Its hybrid, cloud-native architecture routinely handles 50 PB data workloads, delivers sub-microsecond query performance and serves clusters with hundreds of compute nodes. Cloudera Data Warehouse works where enterprises work, delivering the agility, security and governance enterprise IT needs, and the self-service analytics business people and data professionals demand.

Cloudera is further expanding its hybrid cloud data warehouse offerings with the availability of Cloudera Altus Data Warehouse, a modern data warehouse-as-a-service, built with the same powerful Cloudera Data Warehouse hybrid, cloud-native architecture. The all-new Cloudera Altus Data Warehouse provides as-a-service agility, with the hybrid cloud flexibility and performance that first-generation cloud data warehouses simply weren’t designed to deliver.

Altus Data Warehouse offers a superior analytics experience, governance, and performance. It’s also multi-cloud, running on both Microsoft Azure and AWS. Unlike first-generation cloud data warehouses, Altus Data Warehouse:

· Delivers a superior analytic experience and improves user productivity with zero-copy simplicity that eliminates the need to copy data into proprietary stores

· Accelerates analytic experimentation and collaboration with zero-admin data sharing for data science, machine learning, and real-time analytic workloads

· Maintains lineage and history for transient workloads, critical for governance and compliance

· Enables encryption at rest and in motion, with choice of key management, configured for clusters on creation and it’s GDPR and SOC2 compliant and is undergoing SOC2 certification

· Provides the scale, performance and hybrid flexibility to quickly and economically capitalize on new business requirements and opportunities

Anupam Singh, General Manager – Analytics, Cloudera, says, “As enterprises collect increasing amounts of data to support critical BI and analytics applications, they recognize the inherent need to leverage Cloudera’s scalable, hybrid, cloud-native data warehouse to better enable self-service flexibility and real-time insights. Simply put, traditional data warehouses and first-generation cloud data warehouses are not able to provide the performance, flexibility and control enterprises need to meet the standards for agility and scale of a modern operational environment.”
