Pivotal announces availability of “Pivotal Big Data Suite”

Pivotal has announced availability of the Pivotal Big Data Suite, an annual subscription-based software, support, and maintenance package that bundles Pivotal Greenplum Database, Pivotal GemFire, Pivotal SQLFire, Pivotal GemFire XD, Pivotal HAWQ, and Pivotal HD into a flexible pool of big and fast data products for customers. Pivotal Big Data Suite is available through an aggressively priced subscription model based on the number of cores on two- and three-year terms.

The merging of traditional and next-generation data infrastructure technologies is defined as a “Business Data Lake”. The Pivotal Big Data Suite fills a much-needed gap in the market, helping enterprise companies to capitalize on explosive data growth by offering a multi-faceted data portfolio with a “use it as you need it” pricing model.

With the rapid proliferation of Hadoop-based data storage requirements, traditional software consumption models are significant, cost-prohibitive obstacles to enterprise success in big data. Only Pivotal offers an unlimited subscription to Pivotal HD, today’s leading enterprise Hadoop distribution. With the Pivotal Big Data Suite, unlimited Pivotal HD empowers enterprises to stretch their Business Data Lakes to store everything and analyze anything, without fear of runaway licence and support costs.

Arun Ramachandran, Country Manager, Pivotal, said, “The capabilities presented by big data analytics present an unique opportunity for Indian enterprises to learn from data and establish radical new ways of interacting with customers, streamlining business cycles, and reducing operational costs while stimulating huge opportunity for businesses. Pivotal's Big Data Suite allows organizations to store everything, analyze anything and build the right application to leverage business value. The new subscription licensing model that allows customers to interchangeably use in-memory data grids or massively parallel processing in-database analytics or leverage SQL on Hadoop present a hugely differentiated approach allowing customers a highly cost-efficient mechanism to embarking on their big data initiatives.”

Pivotal Big Data Suite is available now.
