Hexaware, Greenplum Team To Offer Large-Scale Data Mgmt Solutions

Hexaware Technologies, a provider of IT and BPO services and consulting, has announced a global partnership with Greenplum, a provider of database software for the next generation of data warehousing and large scale analytic processing. While Greenplum will provide the database platform, Hexaware will enable the migration, implementation, upgrades and maintenance services on these platforms.

Increasingly, due to the proliferation of multiple channels, the volume of data is on a rise and this has led to data explosion. Corporates are sensing the urgency to analyse data and there is an ever-growing demand to manage data and convert it into useful information, thus, enabling the need to migrate to intelligent analytical platforms. Greenplum Database is based on a massive parallel processing (MPP) architecture designed to support next-generation data warehousing and large scale analytical processing. It scales from terabytes to petabytes of data on a very cost competitive platform, thus, helping companies gain insight and competitive advantage from their data.

Business Intelligence and Analytics (BI&A) has been a strong focus area for Hexaware. This association with Greenplum will enable the two companies not only to provide a data warehouse database platform, but also to address the end-to-end implementation of the data warehouse, migration, maintenance and support for customers.

Greenplum will provide Hexaware with the preliminary training and familiarisation of the database. Hexaware will continue to build competencies and solution accelerators around the database thus, tailoring to specific customer needs. Hexaware is setting up a Greenplum centre of expertise and will be creating a team of Greenplum software professionals as part of this initiative.

As a part of this alliance, Hexaware and Greenplum will engage in joint go-to-market activities, which will include customised solutions to enhance the value for the end customer. The companies will embark on joint executive briefings to key customers thus, leveraging each other’s competencies.
