The Enterprise Data Cloud Comes To Asia Pacific
The
introduction of Cloudera Data Platform Private Cloud, built on Red Hat
OpenShift, accelerates data-driven digital transformation across private and
hybrid cloud with cloud-native speed, scale and economics
Cloudera, (NYSE: CLDR), the enterprise data
cloud company, announced the culmination of the enterprise data cloud with the
premiere of Cloudera Data Platform Private Cloud (CDP Private Cloud). CDP
Private Cloud is built for hybrid cloud, enabling enterprises to seamlessly
connect their on-premise private clouds to public clouds with consistent,
built-in security and governance.
The
enterprise data cloud delivers powerful, self-service analytics across hybrid
and multi-cloud environments, delivering value from edge to AI. CDP Private Cloud, supported by Red Hat OpenShift,
completes the vision of an enterprise data cloud with a powerful hybrid
architecture, powered by Kubernetes, that separates compute and storage for
greater agility, ease of use, and more efficient use of private and public
cloud infrastructure.
“Every
enterprise-scale organization needs to become truly data driven to navigate an
increasingly volatile operating environment, but that ability has remained
elusive for many until now,” said Mark Micallef, vice president of Asia Pacific
and Japan ,
Cloudera. “The culmination of the vision for an enterprise data cloud allows
business to navigate complex data processes across multiple clouds, manage data
governance, and enable multi-function analytics, regardless of where the data
resides. IT can now say yes to any analytic function on any cloud, enabling the
speed and agility the business wants with the security and governance the
enterprise demands.”
According
to IDC[1],
business agility is the most important trigger factor for considering cloud and
by 2021, over 90% of enterprises in Asia Pacific will rely on a mix of
on-premises/dedicated private cloud, several public clouds, and legacy
platforms to meet their infrastructure needs.
“Highly regulated industries
in India
like telecom, banking, and financial services, have security, governance and
regulatory compliances that can sometimes restrict business flexibility. As
businesses strive to swiftly respond to evolving market conditions, it may
cause the rise of shadow IT,” said Vinod Ganesan, country manager – India ,
Cloudera. “Our CDP private cloud helps organizations leverage the complete
power of cloud for agility while enhancing their security, governance, and
compliance capabilities. It also serves as the crucial data foundation for
AI-driven organizations by allowing data scientists to provision compute on
demand without affecting regular mission-critical workloads.”
Together, Red Hat OpenShift and CDP Private Cloud help create
an essential hybrid, multi-cloud data architecture, enabling teams to rapidly
onboard mission-critical applications and run them anywhere, without disrupting
existing ones. Companies can now collect,
enrich, report, serve and model enterprise data for any business use case in
any cloud. CDP Private Cloud modernizes
data platforms by leveraging decoupled storage and compute with containers and
Kubernetes to accelerate time value by 10x. This ensures critical workloads
meet their SLAs, realizing the vision of a consistent hybrid data cloud.
CDP Private Cloud extends cloud-native speed, scale and
economics for the connected data lifecycle, enabling IT to say yes to the
business:
● Easily deliver data analytics and machine learning
services, up to 10x faster than traditional data management solutions and cloud
services to react faster to changing business requirements and eliminate the
risks of shadow IT.
● Meet the exponential demand for data analytics and
machine learning services, with a Petabyte-scale hybrid data architecture that
can flex to use private and public clouds, delivering faster time to value and
supporting critical workloads at scale.
● Optimize and share compute infrastructure across the
data lifecycle – streaming, engineering, warehousing and machine learning –
increasing efficiency and lowering cost by reducing compute infrastructure
requirements for data analytics and eliminating needless data replication.
● Ensure security and governance policies are easily and
consistently enforced across hybrid and multi-cloud cloud deployments to reduce
the risk of regulatory compliance issues and the resulting fines.
● Invest in a platform powered by open source, ensuring
continual, rapid innovation to address evolving business requirements today and
tomorrow.
“Cloud-native infrastructure like Kubernetes provides a
strong foundation for next-generation data analytics platforms,” said Dirk
Peter van Leeuwen, senior vice president and general manager, Asia Pacific, Red
Hat. “We’re pleased to deliver the preferred container solution for CDP Private
Cloud with Red Hat OpenShift, helping organizations to transform data into
clearer and more actionable enterprise insights.”
Asia Pacific customers say yes to the Enterprise Data Cloud
Since
the launch of CDP in 2019, Cloudera has seen strong adoption momentum in
Asia Pacific across numerous sectors, including telecommunications, public
sector, financial services, and manufacturing, among others. Some of these
publicly referenceable customers include Globe Telecom, Kasikornbank, PT
Citilink, and Telkomsel.
