Hitachi Vantara, the digital infrastructure, data management and analytics, and digital solutions subsidiary of Hitachi, has announced the general availability of the next generation Lumada DataOps Suite.
The portfolio of data management and analytics software is designed to help businesses rapidly identify and utilise data to enhance customer experiences and provide a source of competitive advantage – from customer, operational and product intelligence to compliance and fraud management. The Lumada DataOps Suite helps lower the cost of data operations by using AI to place trusted data quickly into the hands of data analysts and business leaders.
Many organisations are struggling with data sprawl and the challenge of governing and gaining insights from ‘dark’, unused data. Wrangling data across on-premises and multi cloud environments, and manually combining data for context and correlations takes time and strains many organisations’ resources. Research by IDC suggests data workers waste as much as 50 per cent of their time searching for and gaining access to data that may be locked in different data stores and diverse formats.
“Sourcing quality data for analytics is one of the main inhibitors for innovation in data-driven organisations but the adoption of DataOps methodologies can drastically improve workflow among teams. The ability to automate data management tasks with AI frees up data engineers to focus on more compelling initiatives, while simultaneously allowing self-service access for data consumers is a breakthrough in improving efficiency and collaboration,” said Stewart Bond, Research Director, IDC.
“The ability to provide the right data, in the right hands, at the right time is a simple formula to enable data-driven outcomes,” said Radhika Krishnan, Chief Product Officer, Hitachi Vantara.
“The Lumada DataOps Suite transforms disparate data silos into one in which everyone can use a governed data fabric for innovation. Customers are enabled to tackle data complexity and reduce the time it takes to get access to data and to create valuable insights,” added Krishnan.
