Cloudera has unveiled Cloudera Enterprise, a next generation data management software which is designed for organisations to leverage the Apache Hadoop platform in a production environment.
The company claims that organisations can cost-effectively store, manage and analyse all of their data; and enables organisations to quickly and easily take advantage of the power of Hadoop to extract value out of their most granular and voluminous data, which often had to be either put to long-term storage or discarded.
According to Cloudera, Cloudera Enterprise combines Cloudera’s Distribution for Hadoop (CDH) with integrated deployment management tools and enterprise-class support to enable organisations to put Apache Hadoop into production.
The company said that the feature-rich tools include authorisation management and provisioning, integration configuration and monitoring and resource management, and simplify the operation of Hadoop clusters as they grow and mature.
The authorisation management and provisioning tool enables organisations to monitor and manage user activity within a cluster; integration configuration and monitoring tool eases the management of data integration points into a Hadoop cluster.
In addition, resource management tool lets administrators monitor usage of assets within a Hadoop cluster. Features include user and group usage tracking which enables track back and cross charge activity, and quota administration which allows administrators set quotas for resource usage protecting and controlling against over resource usage within a cluster.
Mike Olson, CEO of Cloudera, said: "More and more organisations are struggling with an onslaught of data and are turning to Hadoop to address their storage and analysis challenges.
"Cloudera is leading the way with Cloudera Enterprise. We offer a package of software and support that lowers the barriers and enables them to easily and safely put Hadoop into production."
