WANdisco announced their global
agreement with Infosys, a global leader in next-generation digital
services and consulting. Together, WANdisco and Infosys will help enterprises
to successfully migrate their data lakes to major public clouds including
Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud.
WANdisco's
LiveData Migrator, the first new native Microsoft Azure service launched on top of
WANdisco's LiveData Platform for Azure, will ensure the seamless migration of
data lakes to ADLS (Azure Data Lake Storage) and take advantage of cloud
economics and machine learning-powered cloud analytics (with services like
Azure Databricks). Infosys will leverage LiveData Migrator to help enterprises
transition on-premise data lakes to the cloud and ensure continued business
performance.
Infosys
Data Wizard solution augments WANdisco's LiveData Migrator offering by providing rich graphical user interface-driven
migration life cycle management. The solution provides a seamless and intuitive
user experience for inventory collection, analysis, migration planning,
migration, validation and data certification, thus automating the end-to-end
data migration life cycle. This solution facilitates quick and easy movement of
petabytes of data to the cloud. Enabling enterprises to tap into the power of
artificial intelligence and machine learning for analyzing data to generate
faster and deeper business insights at a lower cost compared to on-premises.
"Data
lake migration is a complex problem to solve, particularly when business
downtime is not an option," said WANdisco CEO David Richards. "Only our
patented technology has a proven capability to ensure zero downtime and zero
risk. We are excited to be partnering with Infosys to expand our market reach
and leverage its vast experience and cloud capabilities, and help customers
accelerate their journey to the cloud."
"Enterprises are recognizing
that to truly achieve digital transformation, they need to leverage the economics
and capabilities of the cloud," said Satish HC, Executive Vice President,
Data & Analytics, Infosys. "However, enterprises who have
historically invested in on-premise data lakes have run into challenges with
manual or batch migration of business critical data to the cloud. With Infosys Cobalt, our clients are embracing hybrid cloud solutions
to accelerate their digital transformation journeys, and our partnership with
WANdisco will help them automate migration of data volumes at scale while
ensuring continued business performance."
WANdisco
along with Infosys's Data Cloud Practice will help clients fast track their
efforts around proof of concepts, pilots and other mechanisms designed to
deliver value quickly and securely.
