A recent press release reports, “Jethro, provider of an acceleration solution that enables Interactive Business Intelligence (BI) on Big Data, today announced Jethro 3.0. The product is the only all-in-one enterprise solution that combines the power of indexing architecture with ‘auto-cubes’ to accelerate all possible business intelligence use cases using big data. With Jethro 3.0, costly and labor-intensive data engineering tasks such as pre-aggregating tables, manually building cubes, or keeping up with new and changing applications, are eliminated. Instead, Jethro automatically creates cubes based on actual user queries, fully-indexes all table columns, and manages an intelligent query result cache. Unlike SQL-on-Hadoop engines that full-scan billions of rows of data for every query, Jethro leverages it’s indexes, cubes and cache to process queries with much less effort and greater speed. Jethro delivers consistently fast performance for any BI query, on any size dataset, and with any number of concurrent users. Users can interact with their BI dashboards and generate actionable business insights at the speed of thought.”
The release goes on, “With the advancement of aggregated auto-cubes, Jethro 3.0 boasts improved enterprise security features including Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) authentication and role-based permissions, allowing customers to set clearly-defined security responsibilities within their own company. Additionally, Jethro 3.0 offers the ability to directly load data from Hadoop tables and an improved management graphical user interface (GUI). ‘Ever since we switched to the Jethro platform for our big data analytics needs, we’ve been able to generate consistently fast query results for our large, concurrent user base,’ said Samik Mukherjee, Head of Engineering, at Tata Communications CDN. ‘Our data lake grows by the billions every day. Jethro takes the heavy lifting out of data re-engineering so we can focus on other business critical applications, knowing our users are generating critical intelligence and KPIs through Jethro that enhance their business decision-making and ultimately grows our customer base’.”
