Teradata Uses Revelytix Loom for Smarter Hadoop

July 26, 2013

The popular open source database technology system Hadoop has many strategic partners that have created portfolios for integrating with Hadoop. We heard about another one in Data Center Knowledge’s article “Teradata Announces Portfolio for Hadoop.” Teradata specializes in analytic technologies like data warehousing and business intelligence.

Teradata’s portfolio for Hadoop features Hadoop-based product platforms, software, consulting services, training and customer support. It uses Revelytix Loom. The press release “Revelytix Announces General Availability of Loom for Hadoop” tells us more about that.

According to Scott Gnau, president, Teradata Labs:

‘“Teradata is now off and running as a trusted single source for all things Hadoop with many leading customers such as Dell, Inc., Otto Group, PT XL Axiata Tbk mobile telecommunications, Swisscom Schweiz AG, and Wells Fargo Bank. We built The Teradata Portfolio for Hadoop to support organizations struggling with Hadoop implementations by taking the complexity and cost out of deploying and managing the solutions.’”

As far as the Revelytix Loom, it provides a smarter Hadoop for the Teradata Appliance for Hadoop. What does that mean? Just a little something like dynamic dataset management and automatic parsing for new files.
