Hitachi Vantara launches Pentaho 8.0

Hitachi Vantara, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hitachi, has unveiled the next generation of its Pentaho data integration and analytics platform software. Pentaho 8.0 provides support for Spark and Kafka to improve data and stream processing, plus the ability to easily match compute resources with business demand in real time.

According to research firm IDC, the global datasphere will grow to 163 zetabytes by 2025 – 10 times faster than the amount of data generated in 2016. The firm also forecasts that more than a quarter of that data will be real-time in nature, with IoT data making up more than 95% of it*.

With Pentaho 8.0, Hitachi Vantara optimises and modernises data analytics pipelines. New enhancements include:

Improved connectivity to streaming data, better security, optimised processing of resources, adaptive execution and features to boost team productivity. Pentaho’s adaptive execution allows users to match workloads with the most appropriate processing engine, without having to rewrite any data integration logic. Pentaho 8.0 makes adaptive execution easier to set up, use and secure. The functionality is also now available on Hortonworks. 

“On the path to digital transformation, enterprises must fully exploit all the data available to them. This requires connecting traditional data silos and integrating their operational and information technologies to build modern analytics data pipelines that can accommodate a more connected, open and fluid world of data,” said Donna Prlich, Chief Product Officer for Pentaho software at Hitachi Vantara. “Pentaho 8.0 provides enterprise scale and faster processing in anticipation of future data challenges to better support Hitachi’s customers on their digital journeys.”

Hitachi Vantara’s Pentaho 8.0 software will be generally available in November.
