Zoomdata Introduces Smart Connector for Vertica Advanced Analytics Database from Hewlett Packard Enterprise

SAN MATEO, CA--(Marketwired - Mar 14, 2017) -  Zoomdata, developers of the world's fastest visual analytics platform for big data, today announced a new Smart Connector™ for the Vertica Advanced Analytics database from Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Leading Vertica systems integrator, Clarity Insights, will offer customers pre-integrated Zoomdata packages for Vertica as well as other supported data sources.

"Enterprises that embrace Big Data analytics platforms are changing the dynamics across multiple industries -- from data monetization to customer retention to compliance to traffic optimization," said Bruce Jones, vice president of sales for Big Data at HPE. "Increasingly, organizations are supplementing or replacing their legacy enterprise data warehouse with the Vertica Advanced Analytics Platform and we're pleased that customers will be able to immediately gain advantage with the joint solutions from Zoomdata and Clarity Insights."

Vertica was designed to run in enterprise data centers on commodity hardware, across multiple cloud platforms and natively on Hadoop nodes. It is designed to analyze all forms of data, wherever it is stored, to provide a best-in-class, unified analytics platform that will forever be independent from underlying infrastructure.

As the largest onshore data and analytics consultancy in the United States, Clarity Insights helps companies unleash their insights. Established in 2008, the firm has built out the largest HPE Vertica production environments at the largest scale-out data centers in Silicon Valley. The firm works across the full data stack and has in-depth industry expertise in the financial services, insurance, retail, CPG, technology, healthcare, communications, media and entertainment industries.
