Actian, a leader in hybrid data management, data warehousing, and data integration technology that is part of the HCL Technologies global ecosystem, announced the availability of its flagship Actian Avalanche cloud data warehouse, a fully managed service, on Microsoft Azure.

Actian Avalanche provides a flexible hybrid solution to migrate data and apps to the cloud at your own pace, while delivering breakthrough levels of speed, flexibility and economics both on-premise and in the cloud.

Avalanche is designed to work seamlessly with Azure data services such as Azure Data Lake Store Gen 2, Azure Data Factory, Microsoft Power BI, Microsoft PowerApps, and Azure AI including Azure Machine Learning.

Companies need the enterprise-grade performance, management, and security capabilities of a modern data warehouse, combined with the elasticity and economics of the cloud to deploy and scale data analytics services.

With more companies migrating to Azure, Actian recognized the market need for an enterprise-class, hybrid cloud data warehouse to deliver superior data analytics capabilities and performance.

Actian Avalanche on Azure delivers unique value by providing:

  • Fully managed service: Fully managed so users can focus on delivering superior insight
  • Flexibility: Use only the compute and storage resources needed, with extensive pre-built connector support for over 200 popular enterprise applications
  • Simplified frictionless pricing model: Pioneering consumption model enables organizations to effortlessly shift their workloads across regions, different clouds, and on-premise and cloud environments while protecting their data warehouse investment
  • Breakthrough economics: Industry leading price performance, over nine times better than cloud data warehouse market alternatives, can save organizations millions

“Actian is proud to offer Avalanche to its customers on Microsoft Azure, powering performance at scale and real-time insights in the cloud without compromising speed or flexibility,” said Rohit De Souza, CEO and President of Actian.

Beacon Health adopts Actian Avalanche cloud data warehouse

“Actian is known for innovative data management and integration technology. At Beacon Health, we tested and selected Actian Avalanche to address our most demanding data analytics workloads,” said Dan Sheehan, Executive Vice President and Chief Information Officer of Beacon Health Options, Inc.

“With Actian’s introduction of their Avalanche cloud data warehouse offering for Azure, we believe that we found the perfect combination of great analytic performance and the lowest total cost of ownership available in a cloud offering. This will allow Beacon to service our customers more effectively and very cost-efficiently.”

Recognizing the industry need for a data warehouse that can maintain a hybrid environment, with some data in the cloud and some on-premise, Actian built a highly automated and fully managed cloud data warehouse so organizations can focus less on administration and maintenance and more on their business differentiation.

Actian Avalanche, now available on Azure, allows customers to use the same skills, technology, and applications for both cloud and on-premise deployments, greatly reducing the staff required to administer hybrid deployments and resolves the data complexity issues around compliance that businesses have faced for some time.
