Liaison introduced the cloud-based Liaison ALLOY Platform to solve complex data integration and data management challenges for some of the world’s leading organizations. The platform was built from the ground up utilizing advanced technologies such as microservices for supreme agility, polyglot persistence for handling diverse data types, and automated mapping for accelerated implementation. Liaison developed ALLOY as a single unified platform to handle both integration and data management workflows. Liaison also uniquely addresses the resource challenges faced by enterprises today by providing integration and data management as turnkey managed services with the ALLOY Platform.

Liaison selected MapR’s enterprise-grade data platform and Hadoop distribution to enhance the scalability, performance and flexibility of the ALLOY Platform for managing big data and for adapting to varied big data uses cases. With MapR, ALLOY offers a real-time, secure platform for distributed storage that supports disaster recovery and security for multi-tenant services.
