RedPoint Global Delivers Big Data Management to Cloudera Enterprise 5

WELLESLEY HILLS, MA--(Marketwired - Oct 7, 2014) - RedPoint Global Inc. (www.redpoint.net), the data management and digital marketing software company, announced a partnership today with Cloudera to deliver greater data quality and data integration capabilities to users of Cloudera Enterprise 5, the leading Hadoop-powered enterprise platform driving enterprise data hubs worldwide. With this partnership, Cloudera users will now have access to the company's top-ranked RedPoint Data Management for Hadoop™ application that helps businesses leverage Big Data within Hadoop but without the need for specialized programming skills.

As a result of this partnership, RedPoint Global Data Management for Hadoop is now a Cloudera Certified Technology, enabling the Cloudera community to extract the most value from their data with lower risk and total cost of ownership. 

"Extracting value from Big Data is critical in gaining a competitive advantage in today's business environment," said Tim Stevens, vice president, Business and Corporate Development at Cloudera. "Companies are building out enterprise data hubs and leveraging tools like RedPoint Data Management for Hadoop to help them quickly uncover actionable insights that fuel growth."

With its visual, easy-to-use interface, RedPoint empowers traditional data analysts to manage Big Data without specialized and expensive MapReduce coding capabilities. Additionally, RedPoint Data Management for Hadoop saves time and valuable compute resources by applying data quality processing directly inside the cluster instead of utilizing traditional extraction processes. 

"Cloudera enterprise data hubs are empowering companies using Big Data to gain insights and make more informed business decisions faster," said RedPoint Global CEO Dale Renner. "RedPoint's data management and data integration offerings are helping to drive Cloudera users closer to unlocking the promise of Big Data. Gaining timely insights from the both unstructured and structured data is redefining the level of competition in the market today, and we're prepared to help meet this need head-on."

RedPoint Data Management for Hadoop enables companies to process data -- like social media posts, geospatial data and web activity; as well as structured data, such as customer records, sales transactions, and prospect lists -- directly within Hadoop. Companies are better equipped to find answers to complex business questions by looking across the enterprise where the data resides. RedPoint Data Management for Hadoop works seamlessly with both Hadoop and traditional databases to uncover meaningful insights that result in smarter business decisions.

RedPoint Global will offer demonstrations of RedPoint Data Management for Hadoop at Strata + Hadoop World 2014, taking place later this month in New York City. Cloudera is a co-presenter of Strata + Hadoop World 2014, the largest big data conference bringing together the most influential business decision makers, strategists, architects, developers, and analysts to shape the future of their businesses and technologies.
