Numerous companies are looking at the benefits which can be gained from big data, but they are putting it off because of the infrastructure costs involved.
Analytics company Kyvos Insights is aiming at making big data more accessible by making its scalable, self-service online analytical processing (OLAP) solution accessible to users of Microsoft Azure HDInsight.
The company in its official blog states,
“Kyvos Insights, a big data analytics company, today announced that its flagship product Kyvos – a massively scalable, self-service online analytical processing (OLAP) solution – is now available to users of Microsoft Azure HDInsight. The relationship enables Azure HDInsight users to deploy Kyvos to do analytics at scale and obtain powerful business insights in just minutes.”
Ajay Anand, vice president of products at Kyvos Insights, states,
“Supporting a cloud platform like Azure HDInsight that you don’t have to manage and can get up and running in minutes with our solution is very appealing to our customers. Now, through this relationship, Azure HDInsight users can analyze their data very quickly with Kyvos and the other BI tools they use. In addition, they benefit from not having to wait for IT data groups to provision hardware, making it easy to perform activities such as creating a cluster faster than ever before.”
Kyvos helps business users to visualize, explore, and analyze big data interactively using 'cubes on Hadoop' technology. By providing greater levels of scalability and interaction directly on Hadoop, without any need for programming, Kyvos helps users to gain insights which can lead to better business decisions, increased understanding of customers, and target marketing more accurately and with greater profitability.
Tiffany Wissner, senior director of data platform marketing at Microsoft, states,
“Microsoft is focused on simplifying big data and advanced analytics to give organizations the fastest way to achieve business transformation. By giving users the ability to do OLAP analysis with Kyvos on top of data in Hadoop with Azure HDInsight, our collective customers can achieve insights faster and easier to positively impact their business.”
