REVELYTIX to Push Forward with Big Data Initiatives for U.S. Department of Defense In 2013

SPARKS, Md., Feb. 26, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Big Data software and tools provider Revelytix today announced that it will provide big data software and services for the United States Department of Defense (DOD) during 2013, deepening the multi-year big data relationship already in place. The DOD has relied on Revelytix for three years to create its data architecture and provide support to allow it to establish common architecture and semantics across all military service branches.

Revelytix CEO Mike Lang stated, "The management team at Revelytix has been working on complex data processing and data management problems for the federal government for the past 12 years.  Our first company, Metamatrix, now part of Red Hat, produced data processing software used in the intelligence community and the DOD.  Revelytix has been working for the DOD for the past four years specifically on the problem of processing and managing highly distributed sets of data.  The resulting Revelytix technology is now in full production.

"A year ago we started incorporating our core intellectual property into a new product running on Hadoop clusters.  The resulting product is Loom Dataset Management for Hadoop.  It incorporates state of the art data processing and data management capabilities in Hadoop that have been forged in the real world on large sets of distributed data.  

"In 2013, we will push ahead with broad implementation of the data management capabilities now in place at DOD.  In fact, recent federal legislation is mandating that requests for DOD funding use the approach we've partnered with DOD to implement. There will be significant gains in the manageability of so much huge, important data."

Revelytix provides Loom Dataset Management for Hadoop which makes managing complex datasets easier for enterprises and their data scientists. Loom is the product of the Revelytix team's 14 years of big data experience for large enterprises and the U.S. Department of Defense. Loom increases the productivity of all users by adding dataset management to the Hadoop information processing platform.
