Podium Data Releases “Data Conductor” for Faster Time to Insight within Data Lakes and Beyond

NEW YORK, Sept. 26, 2017 -- Strata Data Conference – Podium Data, Inc., creator of the Podium Data Marketplace™ today announced a new platform capability to further simplify enterprise data management. Now an integral part of the Podium platform, Data Conductor helps data stewards, compliance professionals and business users manage, discover, and access all data on any platform – not just Hadoop – within an enterprise.

“Podium continues to deliver on the promise of data lakes and the convenience of self-service, while empowering IT to further manage our data appropriately,” said Pierre-Armand Peiclier, AVP Systems, Sun Life Financial.

As the volume of data continues to rise and the demand for faster time to insight intensifies, the needs of enterprise data management are shifting. The data lake originated to serve these purposes, but once again volume, governance, compliance and cost of data are primary issues.

Until now, data lakes were synonymous with managing data in Hadoop. With this new release, Podium expands the data universe with a comprehensive catalog within – and beyond – the enterprise.

“Unanimously, our customers tell us they don’t want to just govern data in lakes, they want to govern all data.  For this reason, we’ve engineered Data Conductor to further extend the power of self-service access to data in any location, making it visible and actionable for businesses,” said Paul Barth, CEO of Podium Data. “This is especially powerful with the growing usage of on premise, cloud and hybrid environments and business demands to work with public and commercial data sources.”

This release allows organizations for the first time to manage data in a marketplace regardless of where it resides – within on premise databases and operational systems, or cloud-based third-party public sources.

• Flexibility to access any data, on any platform, anywhere — not just Hadoop,
• Comprehensive catalog of all data assets,
• Integrate with existing platforms and systems,
• Pinpoint insights into all data – anywhere, anytime,
• Eliminates unnecessary data duplication,
• More options for managing storage and associated costs,
• Scrutinize data without moving it,
• Treat seldom used data differently.

Attendees of the annual Strata Data Conference on September 25-28, 2017 in New York will be among the first to see this technology in action at Podium’s exhibit, booth #532.
