WANdisco makes its platform GA

WANdisco made its LiveData platform generally available for Azure, with the LiveData Migrator capability to automate migration of on-prem data lakes to cloud and support business continuity. The offering is intended to pair with Azure Data Lake Storage.

"With LiveData Platform for Azure integrated with ADLS Gen2, customers have an opportunity to leverage a purpose-built solution for optimizing their migration costs and accelerating their timelines onto the Azure data platform. With today's general availability announcement, it's even easier for Azure customers to leverage our analytics offerings to expand their insights capabilities and get immediate value from their Hadoop to Azure migration,” stated Jurgen Willis, VP of Product Management, Microsoft Azure Storage.

"We are determined to close the cloud value gap, and the general availability of the LiveData Platform for Azure is a significant milestone in that journey. It's bringing the benefits of the Azure cloud even closer to enterprises of scale. With this Azure-native service offering, customers are getting even greater access to a proven solution for accelerating cloud transformation without business disruption or downtime. As more enterprises look to derive value from massive, distributed datasets, we see a tremendous opportunity to help them realize the full potential of the cloud,” said WANdisco CEO and Chairman David Richards.
