Cloudera introduces new cloud-native data warehousing service for Cloudera Data Platform

Cloudera (NYSE: CLDR), the enterprise data cloud company, today launched Cloudera Data Warehouse, a cloud-native service that makes it fast and easy to deploy self-service enterprise analytics for teams of business analysts on the new Cloudera Data Platform (CDP).

Cloudera Data Warehouse allows for quick deployment and easy administration of cloud data warehousing, seamlessly moving on-premises workloads to the cloud with consistent security and governance. It ingests data anywhere, at massive scale, from structured, unstructured, and edge sources, radically simplifying the data warehousing life cycle for IT and data analytics leaders.

“When you need answers to the biggest burning business questions, you need it now,” said Anupam Singh, CCO and GM of Data Warehouse at Cloudera. “With Cloudera Data Warehouse, there is no waiting. Hundreds of users can simply provision their own resources at the click of a button and analyse all data together, wherever it is on-premises or in the cloud, without breaking the bank, without breaking metadata and security, and lastly, without locking data into proprietary formats and silos. With Cloudera Data Warehouse, everyone has the freedom and power to get at the massive volumes of data they need for their modern, complex analytics, and deliver business insights at enterprise scale.”

Unlike previous cloud data warehouses, Cloudera Data Warehouse is offered with its foundation built on high-performance SQL engines that have been tested and proven in leading enterprises at unparalleled scale. Cloudera Data Warehouse enables IT to “say yes” to business analysts and all analytics users with capabilities that enable:

Autoscaling to onboard hundreds of new users – providing immediate and easy access to volumes of high-quality data, all secured and governed by Cloudera SDX technologies.

Self-service data access – for quick and responsive analytics at scale, across both hybrid and multi-cloud deployments.

Auto-provisioning – rapidly onboard special projects and priority workloads without waiting – providing near real-time access to volumes of complex, relational, and historical data.

Cloud optimisation – scale and suspend resources on-demand, minimising costs and maximising resource availability. Automatically burst on-premises workloads and related data to the cloud, delivering business insights that never have to wait on resource allocations again.

Self-service workload management – handle all unpredictable workload demands with amazing agility. Easy-to-use tools immediately identifies over-utilisation of resources and cloud burst technology seamlessly moves everything to the cloud and returns the resources when peak demand is over.

Zero-copy simplicity – deliver a superior analytic experience and improve user productivity by eliminating the need to copy data into proprietary stores. Unlike other cloud data warehouses that require the data to be loaded from the cloud native object stores, Cloudera Data Warehouse is able to run directly on top of these object stores thus saving significant costs and eliminating data duplication.

Cloudera Data Warehouse is fully integrated with the Cloudera Data Platform (CDP), including Cloudera Machine Learning and Data Hub, allowing for the fast delivery of new multifunction analytics and machine learning in any cloud. This makes it possible for businesses to build, manage, and scale intelligent applications fuelled by data anywhere — from the edge to AI. Cloudera Data Warehouse also fully capitalises on the Shared Data Experience (SDX) provided by CDP. Cloudera SDX provides consistent data security, governance and control across all multifunction analytics, for safe, self-service access and discovery of data at enterprise scale.
