“Zaloni’s DataOps platform simplified our AWS data lake implementation and streamlined our data management and governance processes,” said Chris Blotto, Executive Vice President and Chief Information Officer at Investors Bank. “The latest Arena release will give Investors Bank the ability to execute on customer and market demands, more efficiently and cost-effectively, by delivering data with speed and agility.”
“Improving data pipeline efficiency through DataOps is helping companies reduce the time it takes to get data into the hands of analysts,” said Wayne Eckerson, Founder and Principal Consultant, The Eckerson Group. “Zaloni’s Arena platform delivers the tools needed to automate and govern the end-to-end data supply chain, it also provides a self-service catalog accelerating data consumption by data scientists.”
Zaloni has identified three key technology drivers essential to DataOps success and delivers them as core capabilities in the Arena platform:
- Extensible Platform: An extensible platform that manages any data type across multiple locations and easily integrates with existing tools to control data sprawl, break down data silos, and reduce IT and vendor costs.
- Collaborative Data Catalog: Collaborative data catalog to inventory, profile, tag, annotate, enrich, share, and provision data in a way that’s automated, governed, and supports collaboration across individual users and teams to improve data confidence and increase productivity.
- Self-Service Marketplace: The ability for data end-users such as analysts and data scientists to easily find or “shop” for relevant data, enrich and prepare that data, and then provision it to a sandbox or analytics tool in a way that’s governed and secure, accelerating time to analytics, reducing risk, and sparing valuable IT resources.
“Delivering on the promise of AI and advanced analytics requires a handle on data that has eluded most enterprises,” said Mark Fernandes, Managing Director, Sierra Ventures. “With forward-thinking enterprises, Zaloni is taking the lead on solving this problem with Arena, a modern platform that manages data in today’s multi-cloud environments while facilitating the self-service data access an organization needs to speed the transformation of data into game-changing business value.”
