The Strategy platform empowers organizations to build applications that leverage big data and Hadoop distributions. All of the major Hadoop distributions are certified to work with Strategy, and once connected, data stored in Hadoop becomes just like any other data source.
Users can connect using Hive, Pig, or proprietary SQL-on-Hadoop connectors like Cloudera, Impala, or IBM BigInsights.
The Strategy Big Data Engine can natively tap into HDFS, generating schema on-read and making Hadoop suitable for ad-hoc querying. It also enables parallel loading of data from HDFS, resulting in high performance data loading.
Strategy's native connectivity saves users from the tedious process of ETL from HDFS to Hive and helps to overcome the ODBC overhead associated with Hive.
Strategy's Data Wrangling capability lets users cleanse and refine their big data directly in Strategy's data discovery interface.
