Organizations have access to more data than ever before to improve operations and boost profitability. However, due to the many technical obstacles that can arise - such as the complexity of Hadoop and the challenges of managing data quality - a majority of big data projects fail. iWay Big Data Integrator addresses these fundamental challenges by enabling organizations to take a modern, native approach to Hadoop-based data integration and management with an intuitive interface that allows you to move data in and around Hadoop without custom coding or scripting.

Key product highlights include:

    --  Simplified ingestion, replacement, and de-duplication of data sets using
        pipelines or native Spark, Flume support, and other techniques ­- all
        without programing
    --  Native Hadoop performance and resource negotiation by running under
        YARN's cluster management technology
    --  Support for a variety of big data integration use cases, including
        structured, defined, and streaming sources in batch and real-time via
        Spark and Hadoop
    --  Spark data operations allow organizations to shape data, while Hive and
        HQL transformations enable you to modify or join tables
    --  Improved security and encryption, with sophisticated process management
        and governance to the Hadoop ecosystem

With iWay Big Data Integrator, real-time and static big data sources can quickly be integrated, contextualized, and analyzed, allowing organizations to capitalize on the data's potential, support downstream business processes, identify opportunities for data monetization, and enrich customer relationships.

Gerald Cohen, president and CEO, Information Builders, said:
"The insights gleaned from big data sets can offer tremendous value to organizations of all types, but historically companies have struggled to unlock its potential. With iWay Big Data Integrator, businesses can finally concentrate on what they hope to use Hadoop for instead of struggling with new developer tools or the need for specific skills. I would invite developers to experience the ease with which iWay Big Data Integrator can help to manage big data faster than ever before, allowing them to more efficiently transform data into valuable insights that help drive business forward."
