WANdisco LiveAnalytics Now Supports Databricks on AWS with Continuous Data Analytics

SAN RAMON, Calif., and AMSTERDAM, Holland, Oct. 17, 2019 — WANdisco, the LiveData company, announced today at Spark + AI Summit Europe an expansion of its LiveAnalytics solution for Databricks, which is now supported on AWS. The collaboration will ensure uninterrupted business insights for AWS users who are migrating data from on-premises Hadoop environments into Spark-based analytics in the AWS cloud.

The recently launched LiveAnalytics allows both migrated and migrating data to be immediately and continuously available for analysis. The platform works together with WANdisco’s LiveMigrator, which systematically enables enterprises’ on-premises data to be consistent with migrated cloud-based data on a petabyte scale. With LiveAnalytics and LiveMigrator working in tandem, business operations, and analytics can operate unhindered as data shifts to the cloud.

“With this partnership, WANdisco further integrates its functions with Databricks to help enterprises modernize their analytics platform,” said WANdisco CEO David Richards. “Enterprises can now migrate on-premises Hadoop analytics into AWS Databricks without any disruption to their analytics processing, offering a smooth and easy transition from Hadoop to Spark.”

WANdisco also recently commissioned an independent evaluation of the performance and scale benefits that come with LiveAnalytics and WANdisco’s general migration capabilities. The study compared the time needed by WANdisco and Cloudera BDR to first take advantage of migrated data. The study showed that regardless of the scale of data, WANdisco made the data available after three minutes while Cloudera BDR would take 85 days for a petabyte of data.
