The service includes MapR taking on operational responsibilities including patching, monitoring, optimizing performance, SLA management, regular customer reviews and security updates.

Select members from the MapR Converge Partners program also serve a key role in the new MapR Managed Services by managing the application infrastructure, such as servers, network, or applications.

Emtec’s managed services solutions and deep expertise with the MapR platform offers organizations a cost-effective way to better understand their data and build continuous improvement enterprise-wide.”

The new MapR Managed Services enable companies to quickly deploy and maintain the MapR Platform without hiring and onboarding specialized operations staff.  The service will be available to MapR customers worldwide.
