Kapow Reinforces It Is a Big Data Platform
July 21, 2013
Short honk: Data integration, like search, is expanding. We noted a news release called “Kapow Software Quarterly Revenue Rises as Newly Acquired Customer Bookings and Subscriptions Fuel Growth.” The news release explains that a privately held firm is growing. The important point for me was this phrase: “a leading Big Data solution provider.”
The news release explains:
The Kapow Enterprise Big Data Integration Platform enables companies to integrate any cloud or on-premise data source using Kapow Software’s patented, intelligent integration workflows and Synthetic APIs™. Once the critical data is found and surgically extracted, Kapow Enterprise 9.2 delivers timely information to the workforce in an easily consumable form called Kapow Kapplets™ through an enterprise app library offering called the Kapow KappZone™. KappZones can be easily branded and distributed for employees to discover and use on any computing device they choose.
The Kapow Web site points out that the company’s business includes:
- Content integration
- Content migration
- Legacy application integration
- Enterprise search.
The company also offers three aforementioned products: Katalyst, Kapplets, and KappZone. I find this semantic embrace fascinating and indicative of a trend in which vendors pretty much do anything related to information which is, it seems, Big Data.
