Syncsort, a global leader in Big Iron to Big Data Governance, announced on PRNewswire its new open metadata management capabilities in its DMX-h data integration software that, along with its seamless integration with Cloudera Navigator, makes Big Data governance easier. Syncsort’s multi-award winning DMX-h provides organizations with a single interface for accessing and integrating all enterprise data, including IBM z mainframes, and the flexibility to use the metadata repository that best meets their needs, on premise and in the cloud.

“Organizations are finding that keeping track of data, data security, data access and regulatory compliance is more critical and more challenging than ever before,” said Tendu Yogurtcu, General Manager of Syncsort’s Big Data business. “Data governance in Hadoop — including auditing, lineage and metadata management — requires a scalable approach that is easy to interoperate across multiple platforms, on-premise and in the cloud. Syncsort continues to work closely with Cloudera to deliver a best-in-class solution for this challenge.”

Because Syncsort DMX-h runs natively in Hadoop, it seamlessly integrates with Cloudera Navigator, allowing users to search for DMX-h jobs across a unified metadata repository and view data lineage within the Navigator user interface out-of-the-box.

“As a long-time Cloudera partner and contributor to big data innovation including open source projects like Hadoop, Sqoop and Spark, Syncsort continues to innovate in support for Cloudera’s Data Governance leadership,” said Tim Stevens, vice president, Business and Corporate Development, Cloudera. “Our joint customers are excited that Syncsort’s data integration solution supports Big Data governance by tracking data lineage from legacy sources such as mainframes and databases to new enterprise data hubs, and shares that information with Cloudera Navigator.”
