BlueData enables enterprises to easily run containerized Big Data workloads in a self-service, elastic, and multi-tenant environment – whether on-premises, in the public cloud, or in a hybrid architecture. Using BlueData’s EPIC software, data science teams can spin up instant clusters and get on-demand access to the applications, data, and infrastructure they need. “Today, more than ever, businesses rely on IT to deliver a competitive edge,” remarked Thomas Hogan, group publisher at DBTA. “However, it has become very difficult to sift through all the hype and identify products that produce results in the real world. We created this list to do the heavy lifting for you and point out the products that are really transforming enterprise data management and analysis.” You can find DBTA’s full list of “Trend-Setting Products for 2018” here and the spotlight on BlueData here.

It’s exciting to see these trends become more broadly adopted in the industry by our enterprise customers and partners around the world.” The announcement is the latest in a series of awards and recognition for BlueData over the past several months.
