Selfless Analytic Partnerships Score Big

July 29, 2013

One would think the big data analytics field would be cutthroat and bloody with competition. Oddly, though, it is actually a mostly friendly affair. It seems like we hear more and more about disparate firms partnering up to give customers a better product. Such was the case with this recent Business Wire story, “JackBe Unveils Presto Real-Time Analytics Add On with Terracotta Big Memory.”

According to the story:

“JackBe®, the leading provider of Real-Time Actionable Intelligence software, today released its Presto Real-Time Analytics Add-On With Terracotta BigMemory (RTA Add-On), which bundles Terracotta’s enterprise-grade BigMemory in-memory data management platform for seamless high performance in-memory analytics. This supercharged combination of in-memory and analytics allows Presto to mash Big Data with live and transactional enterprise data into actionable dashboards in a fraction of the time required by traditional methods, putting real-time Big Data analytics at the fingertips of decision-makers.”

We like the way these two companies are playing to their strengths. When selfless analytics minds do that, the customers score big. It is reminiscent of the IBM big data partnership. In these cases we are seeing savvy companies partnering to do something extraordinary.
