Azure LiveData Platform Go-To-Market Launch
-- Joint go-to-market launch harnesses Microsoft's sales and marketing capabilities
-- Enables seamless and efficient migration of complex analytical workloads to Azure
WANdisco (WAND.L), the LiveData company, announces the
go-to-market launch of its LiveData Platform for Azure in public
preview. The Platform is being launched by Microsoft as the
preferred solution for Hadoop data lake migrations to Azure,
accompanied by a go-to-market campaign.
This launch is of great significance to WANdisco and marks the
culmination of years of co-development with Microsoft and the
beginning of the next stage in the product's maturity as an Azure
native solution.
WANdisco's LiveData Platform for Azure enables Hadoop data lake
migrations to be managed through the Azure portal. Data migration
can be initiated in minutes and with zero business downtime,
compared to other cost or time prohibitive alternatives.
As described by Jurgen Willis, General Manager Azure
Engineering/Azure Storage, in Microsoft's blog post launching the
service, " enterprises are increasingly looking to leverage Azure
analytics services (e.g. Azure Databricks, Azure Synapse) to build
transformative and secure analytical services".
As part of the go-to-market campaign, LiveData Migrator will be
a featured listing in the Azure portal for Storage , Migration and
in the overall Marketplace featured applications giving significant
prominence to the solution. Alongside the launch there will also be
an acceleration of internal enablement and promotion amongst
Microsoft sellers.
Following the delivery of this significant strategic milestone
in line with our expected timeline and go-to-market activity by
Microsoft, the Board re-iterates its confidence in the guidance
given to the market at the time of its interim results.
The Company will host an analyst presentation today at 14.00pm
GMT to discuss the announcement, to attend please use this link

WANdisco CEO and Chairman David Richards, commented:
"This is a defining moment in the Company's history. Alongside
Microsoft, we have worked hard over the last 15 months to
co-engineer a turnkey experience for Azure customers migrating
business-critical Hadoop to Azure. We are confident that with the
ongoing support from Microsoft, this will open up more
opportunities to our addressable market by removing the complexity
and risk of migration for all customers. Enterprises can now
accelerate their Digital Transformation and take advantage of the
insights from analytical services in Azure.
We are confident in achieving our goals for 2021, including the
signing of over 50 customers on Azure and migrating at least 100PB
of data."
Dawit Alemu, Technical Architecture Lead Analytics CoE, Johnson
Controls, said:
"We were intrigued by Analytics services on Azure and wanted to
use them to make data-driven decisions more effectively but
migrating Hadoop data lakes is a problem we have had for some time.
We were very happy to try the new WANdisco LiveData Platform for
Azure and were able to quickly migrate our data without issues. We
were also impressed that we could manage our migration entirely
through the Azure portal."
