As businesses plan their digital transformation journeys, they are finding that the key to success is taking control of their data and the infrastructure needed to unlock data value. To do so, they must detach from any one particular deployment model and have the freedom to deploy on-premise, hybrid cloud or multi-cloud strategies as needed. Consequently, many enterprises are evaluating the public cloud as an initial step to modernize their data warehouse environment and begin to explore machine learning and AI solutions for their business.

Microsoft Azure is positioned to support data-driven companies given the breadth of their cloud and data center offerings. Cloudera, as Microsoft 2018 Global Partner of the Year for open source data and AI, is a modern data warehouse and AI platform built for the cloud to help businesses meet their needs for scale and put the promise of big data within reach. Working together, Cloudera and Microsoft offer businesses a way to supercharge their business by capitalizing on public cloud scale and hybrid cloud flexibility for machine learning, data warehousing, and AI solutions.

"The cloud is enabling businesses to process data sets at larger scale more easily and cost-effectively than ever before," said Vikram Makhija, general manager of Cloud at Cloudera. "Through our close relationship with Microsoft, Cloudera is able to empower customers to create and own their digital transformations with a platform that will support data workloads wherever they decide to run them."
