Microsoft Azure LiveData Platform launch
-- WANdisco's platform to facilitate petabyte scale cloud
migration without business interruption within the world's largest
cloud ecosystem
-- LiveData Platform automates and minimises risk of Hadoop
migration with an expected ROI of three months
-- New service platform to be further enhanced with two initial
bespoke service offerings for data migration and data
consistency
WANdisco (LSE: WAND), the LiveData company for machine learning
and AI, announces the availability of WANdisco LiveData Platform
for Azure in limited public preview, a new Azure service offering
available exclusively on Microsoft Azure. This launch marks a
landmark occasion in WANdisco's vendor partnership strategy, with
the Company being the first independent software vendor to be
integrated as a service within Microsoft Azure.
Customers are able to leverage this new Azure service with the
same seamless experience as any other native Azure service. The
LiveData Platform services are fully integrated in the Azure
Customer Portal, including the billing experience.
WANdisco management in conjunction with Microsoft are targeting
an addressable market of 200-300 exabytes of data on-premise, and
over the next 12 months expect to sign over 50 new customers on the
Azure platform.
The WANdisco LiveData Platform features the Company's patented
consensus engine which ensures data consistency, accuracy, and
accessibility across all environments - on-premise, hybrid
(on-premise and cloud), hybrid cloud, multi-region or multi-cloud.
Enterprises looking to migrate their on-premise data lake into the
cloud can use WANdisco LiveData Platform on Azure for a turnkey
data migration solution with zero business downtime.
WANdisco is also pleased to announce two initial services
available exclusively on the WANdisco LiveData Platform that work
in conjunction to address five further data migration scenarios at
petabyte scale that would otherwise be insurmountable. The two
products work to establish an active-active data plane between
locations, enabling data consistency between an enterprise's Big
Data Hadoop environment located on-premise and in Azure Data Lake
Storage:
-- LiveData Migrator for Azure - performs single scan migration of data
-- LiveData Plane for Azure - ensures any data changes are immediately captured and reflected
Further details on LiveData Migrator and LiveData Plane will be
made available in a following press release.
Leading up to Public Preview and in collaboration with
Microsoft, WANdisco worked with Infosys Ltd and a select number of
customers in Private Preview that successfully deployed the
LiveData Platform and utilised the LiveData Migrator for Azure
application. This initial success has led to excitement and
momentum in the Microsoft Azure ecosystem.
Satish HC, Executive Vice President, Data & Analytics,
Infosys Ltd, commented:
"WANdisco technology provides a unique platform to migrate
"live" data at scale into and within Azure without business
disruption. We have proven its capabilities in a multi-petabyte
scale customer environment. The native integration with Azure
simplifies deployment and makes LiveData Migrator for Azure the
primary choice in live data migration scenarios. We look forward to
working closely with WANdisco in the future to capitalise on the
migration opportunity."
Tad Brockway, Corporate Vice President for Microsoft Azure
Storage, Media and Edge, commented:
"Customers have a significant opportunity to optimize costs and
expand analytics and insights capabilities by moving their
on-premise data lakes to the cloud. WANDisco LiveData Migrator and
LiveData Plane are the first offerings to provide a fully
integrated and turnkey experience for customers migrating Hadoop
data into Azure Data Lake Storage seamlessly and without business
disruption."
WANdisco CEO and Chairman David Richards, commented:
"We are excited to be the first ISV launching a new service in
Microsoft Azure. The LiveData Platform service along with LiveData
Migrator for Azure and LiveData Plane for Azure offerings are the
culmination of joint engineering work between WANdisco and
Microsoft, with the objective of creating a new native Azure
service built around data movement and data consistency.
"These are just the first with plans to continue building more
turnkey solutions. Customers are already seeing the benefits and we
are excited to unlock this over $1B market opportunity we have with
Microsoft. We are also excited to play a key role in the ADLS Data
Lake Migration Program."
