A recent press release states, “Hitachi Vantara, a wholly owned subsidiary of Hitachi, Ltd., today announced Pentaho 8.3, the latest version of the company’s data integration and analytics platform software. Pentaho 8.3 introduces a series of features designed to support DataOps, a collaborative data management practice that helps customers realize the full potential of their data. This latest version delivers improved data agility from customers’ edge-to-multicloud environments while facilitating privacy, security and overall data governance. ‘DataOps is about having the right data, in the right place, at the right time and the new features in Pentaho 8.3 ensure just that,’ said John Magee, vice president, Portfolio Marketing, Hitachi Vantara. ‘Not only do we want to ensure that data is stored at the lowest cost at the right service level, but that data is searchable, accessible and properly governed so actionable insights can be generated and the full economic value of the data is captured’.”
The release goes on, “Pentaho 8.3 introduces several enhancements that help organizations modernize their data management practices – all of which support data operations initiatives and remove the friction between data and insight. The new enhancements include: (1) Improved drag and drop data pipeline capabilities to access and blend data that’s difficult to access. With our new connector to SAP, we now have drag and drop blending, enriching and offloading data from SAP ERP and Business Warehouse providing deeper insights into and greater analytic value from enterprise information… (2) Data visibility for improved governance. Improved integration with Hitachi Content Platform (HCP): our leading distributed object storage system designed to support large, growing repositories of content, from simple text files to images and video to multigigabyte database images. The improvements make it easier for customers to read, write and update HCP custom metadata and query objects with their system metadata to make data more searchable, governable and usable for analytics.”
