Consumer-grade solutions just don’t cut it in the enterprise world — and that’s why MarkLogic makes it such a priority, according to Tavo De Leon, senior director of Big Data Strategy & Solutions at Cognizant Technology Solutions. De Leon joined theCUBE during MarkLogic World 2015.

“The enterprise needs are really becoming the thing that’s the most important,” he said. “And we’re finding that there are some cases where people get things, products and projects to a certain state of readiness, and not having that enterprise capability prevents either functionality from going out, or the product or the process gets canceled.”

Keeping enterprise at the forefront of development

When working with large corporations, there is a lot at stake, so reliability, security and recovery become of utmost importance. Normally, IT departments have to engineer those solutions on their own or wait for an open source program to fill the gap, but MarkLogic keeps enterprise at the forefront of its development. That makes them the perfect partner for a consulting company like Cognizant.

“We’re really working with MarkLogic strategically on solutions,” De Leon said. “We’ve seen an entire large healthcare organization [that] is collapsing all of their silos into a MarkLogic cluster” — a non-trivial process when dealing with between 20 and 30 silos. “It’ll all have the same security, it’ll all have all the same rights, privileges, accesses, all the data will be together, and finally they’ll be able to do analytics across these datasets that have never been possible before.”

Staying competitive

With recent disruptions like changes in regulations and innovations in the market, this kind of integration and agility are crucial if companies are going to compete.

“It’s really vendors like MarkLogic that make that much easier to do,” De Leon concluded. “They’re solution-oriented, we’re solution oriented — it’s a good match.”
