New Release Delivers Enterprise-Grade Scalability, Security, and Performance for Distributed Data Science
SANTA CLARA, CA--(Marketwired - Jun 13, 2017) - BlueData®, provider of the leading Big-Data-as-a-Service (BDaaS) software platform, today announced BlueData EPIC™ version 3.0. This major new release provides increased scalability, enhanced networking, significant security and performance optimizations, and new functionality for distributed data science operations. With BlueData EPIC 3.0, enterprises can quickly and easily deploy large-scale production environments for Big Data analytics and data science running in Docker containers -- either on-premises, in the public cloud, or in a hybrid architecture.
Enterprise deployments of the BlueData EPIC software platform have expanded significantly over the past year, driven by increased adoption of Docker containers and cloud computing for Big Data. Many of these enterprises want their Big Data workloads running in a hybrid model that spans both on-premises and public cloud infrastructure, whether for initial dev/test and sandbox environments or large-scale production deployments. These organizations need a solution that can scale to thousands of containers, with agility and flexibility for distributed data science operations in a multi-tenant architecture. And for Big Data workloads deployed on-premises, they want minimal to no changes to their existing network and security infrastructure.
BlueData EPIC 3.0 addresses these needs by introducing several significant upgrades. These include:
"Our customers now include some of the world's largest companies, with some of the biggest Big Data deployments in the world. I'm very pleased to see our product roadmap being shaped by increased usage and expansion of production environments within these large enterprises," said Kumar Sreekanti, CEO and co-founder of BlueData. "EPIC 3.0 is one of our most significant software releases so far. It delivers the enterprise-class scalability, security, and performance that these customers need -- and solidifies EPIC's position as the leading software platform for Big-Data-as-a-Service."
BlueData will be featuring the new BlueData EPIC 3.0 release at the DataWorks Summit in San Jose this week (at booth #1104).
