Waterline Data Now Available on Microsoft Azure HDInsight

ORLANDO, Fla., Sept. 25, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Waterline Data, a global leader in data cataloging solutions and applications, today announced that Waterline Data Catalog is now available on Microsoft Azure HDInsight, an easy, cost-effective, enterprise-grade service for open source analytics that enables customers to easily run popular open source frameworks including Apache Hadoop, Spark, Kafka, and others. Joint global customers are already successfully leveraging Waterline Data on Azure HDInsight for faster conversion of data into business-driving insights. The announcement was made from Microsoft Ignite 2018.

The Waterline Data Catalog is the industry's most scalable solution designed to help the petabyte enterprise dramatically accelerate the discovery, governance and use of big data. The solution, which uses sophisticated AI and machine learning coupled with advanced data fingerprinting techniques to overcome the low accuracy rates of other offerings, is in use by some of the world's largest financial, food & beverage, tech, healthcare, pharmaceutical and manufacturing companies in the Fortune 100 and Global Fortune 500.

"We are seeing significant growth in the number of organizations moving from on-premises to cloud-based or hybrid environments for their data analytics needs," said Matt Aslett, Research Vice President at 451 Research. "As more and more data is generated and stored in the public cloud, the ability to access that data as a foundation for self-service data discovery and analytics is an accelerator to achieving business insight."

The Waterline Data Catalog was specifically designed to resolve the challenges of high volume and high variety data by creating a real-time, virtual view of the enterprise's entire data estate even as new data pours in. The platform provides an easy to use "shop for data" interface to the enterprise's data estate to help business analysts use every day business terms to find the data sets they need for self-service analytics without having to rely on IT.

"For many data-driven enterprises, the ability to remain competitive will rely heavily on the accuracy of their data, the speed in which they're able to convert data into valuable insights and the ability to scale," said Kailash Ambwani, CEO of Waterline Data. "With our ability to automatically profile and tag billions of rows of data and our advanced data fingerprinting techniques, Waterline is by far the most scalable and accurate data platform in the industry, helping customers cut data processing time by up to 10X."

With Waterline's automated discovery of data, organizations can leverage all the benefits of the cloud by providing a single point of governance to ensure data is findable, understandable, tracked and trusted. Enterprises can also quickly meet GDPR and other regulatory requirements while ensuring all data remains in a permanent state of compliance. Waterline works across an organization's entire distributed data estate, whether the data resides in the cloud, relational databases, on-premises or a hybrid environment.

"Having Waterline Data on Microsoft Azure HDInsight brings tremendous value to anyone building on our public cloud," said 'JG' Chirapurath, General Manager, Azure Data & Artificial Intelligence, Microsoft Corp. "With Waterline Data Catalog and HDInsight, customers can easily discover, organize, and govern their data, all at the scale of Azure—a combination that can truly help customers put their data to work with accelerated time to value at dramatically reduced costs."
