Pentaho Extends Cloudera Big Data Partnership

Pentaho logoPentaho has announced plans for tighter integration of its Business Analyticis 4.5 with Cloudera Enterprise 4.0 and CDH4. This extension of its partnership with Cloudera is designed to create a complete solution for Hadoop-based data analytics and management. Pentaho also announced its plans to extend its visual studio to Sqoop and Oozie, components of Hadoop.

Business Analytics 4.5 will now have complete, certified support for Cloudera Enterprise 4.0 and CDH4, forming what Pentaho calls a “complete Hadoop analytics platform”. Features include:

  • visual interfaces for Hadoop data ingestion
  • data integration
  • task orchestration
  • visualization
  • data manipulation

By using a visual interface, users can reportedly boost productivity ten to fifteen times. The tools are also code-free, allowing even those IT users, data scientists, and business analytics to start using it without acquiring coding skills or having an advanced proficiency in Hadoop.

In the past Pentaho has used its partnerships to extend the flexibility and usability of its database visualization and UI simplification. That has included Cassandra and Hadoop integration. This latest move furthers those goals of providing business intelligence (BI) that is approachable by a wider range of business users.

Cloudera CDH4 is an Apache Hadoop distribution system, and Cloudera Enterprise 4.0 is a centralized management and support application for Hadoop that runs on top of CDH4. Pentaho’s Business Analytics 4.5 will allow companies to perform business data analytics in a “tightly integrated” environment within Hadoop.
