WANdisco (WAND.L), the company LiveData, today announced its global partnership with Infosys, the global pioneer in next-generation technology services and consulting. Together, WANdisco and Infosys will help companies effectively transfer their data lakes to big public clouds, including Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud.
WANdisco’s LiveData Migrator, the first modern native Microsoft Azure service to be introduced on WANdisco’s LiveData Platform for Azure, will ensure the smooth relocation of data lakes to ADLS (Azure Data Lake Storage) and take advantage of cloud economics and machine learning cloud analytics (with services such as Azure Databricks). Infosys will use LiveData Migrator to help companies transfer on-site data lakes to the cloud and ensure continued business success.
Infosys Data Wizard approach adds to WANdisco’s LiveData Migrator providing a rich graphical user interface-driven migration life cycle management. The solution offers a smooth and intuitive user experience in product selection, analysis, deployment preparation, transfer, validation, and product verification while automating the end-to-end data migration life cycle. This approach makes it simpler and quicker to transfer the petabytes of data to the cloud. Enabling companies to tap into the potential of artificial intelligence and machine learning to process data and produce quicker and deeper market insights at a lower cost than on-site.
“Data Lake migration is a difficult issue to address, particularly where business downtime is not an option,” said WANdisco CEO David Richards. “Only our innovative technology has a proven potential to guarantee zero downtime and zero harm. We’re excited to work with Infosys to extend our global presence and exploit its immense expertise and cloud capabilities to help customers accelerate their path to the cloud.”
“Enterprises understand that they need to harness the cloud technology and skills to fully accomplish digital transformation,” said Satish HC, Executive Vice President, Data & Analytics, Infosys. “However, businesses that have historically invested in on-site data lakes have faced problems with manual or batch transfer of business-sensitive 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 the migration of data volumes to scale while ensuring continued business performance.
