Now on Amazon’s Elastic Compute Cloud, Pervasive DataCloud Delivers Data Quality, Matching, Connectivity and Transformation Services
AUSTIN, Texas – October 27, 2009 - Pervasive Software® Inc. (NASDAQ: PVSW), a global value leader in data integration and data management software and in enabling revolutionary next-generation analytics, today announced the release of Pervasive DataCloud® 2. Already in production delivering prepackaged integrations, enhanced analytics and SaaS data profiling, Pervasive DataCloud now offers an API to allow any cloud developer, including Amazon Web Services, force.com and Azure developers, to seamlessly deliver and/or consume robust data services.
More than 150 Pervasive DataSolutions™ customers are now using integrations hosted on Pervasive DataCloud, making Pervasive a growing force in Cloud-based integration. In addition, Aha! Software and Pervasive recently launched Strato-Studio, giving users access to Aha!’s on-demand Monte Carlo simulation using the highly parallel Pervasive DataRush engine running on Pervasive DataCloud.
Pervasive DataCloud 2 is now available on Amazon’s Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), giving Pervasive and third-party developers the convenience of allowing customers on-demand data services access without having to worry about hardware maintenance and software updates. As customers request a service through Pervasive DataCloud, preconfigured Amazon resources are invoked on-demand. Third-party developers and customers can expect rapid implementation time and predictable costs. Leveraging Pervasive’s 25-year history of delivering data management products, solutions and services, customers can rely on deep expertise, proven best practices and reliable support.
“Developing data services in the cloud is a powerful concept but one that can introduce new complexities to application developers,” stated Dennis Callaghan, analyst, Enterprise Software, The 451 Group. “Pervasive DataCloud 2 lowers the barrier for adding data services, including integration, profiling and analytics, to Web applications by making it simpler and therefore faster to deliver these applications.”
“Using Pervasive DataCloud 2, ISVs and IT organizations can integrate on-demand data services with both on-premises applications and other SaaS applications,” said Bill Jacaruso, senior director for Pervasive DataSolutions. “With our API, we now open up rapid development on Pervasive DataCloud to organizations beyond our in-house team, allowing them to quickly deliver on-demand services to consumers who want the infrastructure and large-volume data capabilities of an elastic cloud.”
Pervasive DataCloud 2 acts as an on-demand process engine workbench to let Pervasive and partners affordably host services that are:
- Scalable – the multi-tenant architecture supports multiple users allowing delivery of diverse data-centric services, including data integration, that can seamlessly scale on an elastic cloud to handle fluctuating data volumes
- Accessible worldwide – partners and customers can access, configure and run Pervasive DataCloud-based services via a browser
- Robust – partners can monitor and report activity by account, application or user, plus automatically deliver updates and pre-set processes
- Secure –customer data and processes are kept discrete, secure and separate
“As organizations continue to rigorously assess their IT strategies for results, agility and value, cloud-based data services become a compelling option,” said Mike Hoskins, CTO and general manager of Integration Products at Pervasive. “This latest release of Pervasive DataCloud places the full power of the ease, speed and flexibility of cloud-based integration in the hands of partners worldwide with the most robust, powerful, easy-to-deploy architecture available today.”
