Big Data and the accelerating pace of business is placing a premium on the ability to easily access and visually explore any information source at any speed, especially real-time. Integration of technology acquired in the recent Panopticon acquisition puts Datawatch at the forefront of this rapidly emerging market for next generation analytics.

Under the reorganization, all products now carry the Datawatch name, reflecting the merging of existing and acquired technologies and the advanced, next-generation analytical capabilities this provides. The integrated Datawatch family includes the following products:

Datawatch Desktop: Design visualizations against any data source supported under the former Panopticon Designer product, as well as design and develop models to visualize less than structured data from sources supported by the former Datawatch Monarch Professional product. Datawatch Desktop can be used to design and develop models for individual use or for deployment in the Datawatch Server environment.

Datawatch Server: Integrates the best capabilities of the former Datawatch Enterprise Server and Panopticon Server to automate, manage, store and visualize information from any data source that can be modeled via the Datawatch Desktop or Datawatch Modeler offerings. Datawatch Server will be offered with three different licensing options to facilitate multiple deployments scenarios.

Datawatch Modeler:  Model and extract analytical assets from structured or less-than-structured sources like PDFs, reports and EDI streams, and then use this data in a self-service manner on their desktop or move it to the Datawatch Server for broader analytical use. The product was formerly known as Datawatch Monarch Professional, and offers a subset of the capabilities of the complete Datawatch Desktop.

Datawatch Automator: To process larger sets of semi-structured data that has been modeled using Datawatch Modeler, Datawatch Automator allows you to schedule and automate these processes, and distribute this data to other users throughout the organization.  This product, formerly known as Datawatch Data Pump, is part of the Datawatch Server family.

Datawatch Report Mining Server:  Connects to and allows users to transforms documents stored in enterprise content management systems into analytical data that can be used for visual data discovery and other types of analysis.

Datawatch Report Manager On-Demand:  High volume, high velocity loading and storage technology offering powerful, centralized management of various forms of data.

"Success in next-generation analytics hinges on the ability to easily access any data source and make it available for visual discovery at any speed," said Ben Plummer, chief marketing officer and senior vice president, Strategic Alliances for Datawatch. "We are the first, and only, company able to offer organizations the solutions they need to do true next-generation analytics and our product line integration, packaging, and branding are designed to  reflect these capabilities. "

In step with the rapidly evolving Big Data and analytics markets, Datawatch is continuing to innovate across its product line so organizations can analyze and understand any data variety, regardless of structure, at real-time velocity, in an unmatched visual data discovery environment.
