This adds a significant route to market for WANdisco's Big Data products, aligned to an established and leading provider of Big Data solutions to the Enterprise. \n \nWANdisco's Big Data products are designed to address the critical enterprise requirements for continuous availability, performance and scalability as large global organizations move from using Hadoop for batch storage and retrieval to mission critical high volume real-time applications, where the cost of even one minute of downtime is unacceptable. \n \n\nCommenting on the partnership, David Richards, WANdisco Executive Chairman and CEO, said: \n \n\"We are delighted to announce our partnership with Cloudera today. Enterprises are adopting Hadoop as a core element of their IT infrastructure and our go-to-market strategy is to build out our channel partnerships with leaders in Hadoop, such as Cloudera. This is another endorsement of our strategy to become the de-facto continuous availability layer in the Hadoop deployment stack. We are the only vendor that can deliver continuous data availability that is a 'must-have' for strategic deployments.\"\n \nTim Stevens,...
