Rapid Adoption of Cloud Data Warehouse Technology Using Datometry Hyper-Q
Abstract
The database industry is about to undergo a fundamental transformation
of unprecedented magnitude as enterprises start trading their well-established database
stacks on premises for cloud database technology. Enterprises eager to move to the
cloud face a significant dilemma: making existing applications work with new database
platforms is an enormously costly undertaking that calls for rewriting and adjusting
of 100’s if not 1,000’s of applications. In this talk, we present a next-generation
virtualization technology that lets existing applications run natively on cloud-based
database systems. Using this platform, enterprises can move rapidly to the cloud and
innovate and create competitive advantage as a matter of months instead of years.
We describe technology and application scenarios and demonstrate effectiveness and
performance of the approach through actual customer use cases.
