Attunity Reports Record Revenues for Third Quarter 2015BURLINGTON, Mass., Nov. 4, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Attunity, Ltd. (NASDAQ CM: ATTU), a leading provider of big data management software solutions, today reported its unaudited financial results for the three month period ended September 30, 2015. "The record revenue we reported for the quarter was driven by scaling our direct sales force, expanding our big data solutions for enterprise and cloud environments and delivering on effective marketing and business development programs. Each of these factors is continually feeding a pipeline of customer orders that are becoming larger in scope and value, and across a wider base of new customers than ever before," said Shimon Alon, Chairman and CEO of Attunity. "We are experiencing strong activity and increasing interest from customers, partners and other vendors across all of our product offerings, geographies and business lines. As we further extend our portfolio of innovative Big Data management solutions, we are able to support a larger number of different environments, such as data warehouses, clouds, Hadoop, open source, and others." Recent Operational Highlights:
Financial Highlights for Q3 2015, compared with Q3 2014:
"Our strong partnerships with the major Big Data vendors have resulted in an extension of the OEM agreements we have with Microsoft and another leading global provider of business software and hardware systems. These agreements enable us to continue to generate leads and revenue, enhancing our brand. Working closely together with the Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Azure teams, we are becoming a critical enabler of database migration services that facilitate data transfers between on-premises and cloud environments," continued Mr. Alon. Big Data Management and Cloud Solutions Attunity enhanced its replication platform for the cloud "CloudBeam," with the launch of a version for Microsoft Azure, as well as an expanded portfolio for AWS Cloud with support for Hadoop. The Company has already closed the first CloudBeam solution order for the Microsoft Azure SQL Data Warehouse and is building a growing pipeline working jointly with the Microsoft cloud team. Attunity Visibility has become a trusted solution for enterprises, optimizing performance and balancing workloads from traditional data warehouses to Hadoop. Now, as enterprises look to adopt Hadoop at scale, they need to prioritize investments and make more informed decisions to optimize the value to business users. To accommodate this growing market need, Attunity enhanced Visibility with the launch of "Attunity Visibility 7.0" in order to enable data usage analytics in large Hadoop clusters. With these capabilities, Attunity Visibility is the market's only Big Data Management solution offering users business insights on the utilization of both Hadoop and data warehouses. Sales and Marketing The Company continued to expand its sales, marketing and business development teams, having grown the total headcount nearly 40% compared with the same period in 2014. These investments in sales and marketing, along with an expanded presence in the Big Data space at events and with analysts, have resulted in steady new customer acquisition and a strong sales pipeline. More importantly, we believe they will enable us to position the Company for sustainable long-term growth through the remainder of the year. "By working closely with the AWS and Microsoft Azure teams, we are now widely recognized as a keystone for database migration services that facilitate data transfers between on-premises and cloud environments. The strong partnership with the major Big Data vendors resulted in extending the OEM agreements we have with Microsoft and another leading global provider of business software and hardware systems," concluded Mr. Alon.
