According to a new press release, “With the latest release of its Bedrock Data Lake Management Platform and its Mica Self-service Data Platform, Zaloni continues to establish itself as a leader in the space by pushing the boundaries of what defines a ‘data lake,’ expanding beyond Hadoop to encompass a more holistic, enterprise-wide approach. Zaloni’s vision is a “logical” data lake architecture versus a physical one, which gives companies transparency into all of their data regardless of its location, enables application of enterprise-wide governance capabilities, and allows for expanded, controlled access for self-serve business users across the organization.”

Scott Gidley, Vice President of Product Management at Zaloni, commented, “Organizations want to increase self-service capabilities without sacrificing the governance controls that are critical for IT and the overall business… Bedrock and Mica enable a collaborative environment for both business and technical users – business analysts can quickly define and ingest data entities and create data quality rules, and more technical users can still fully transform and customize complex data as required.”

The release continues, “Enterprises are still struggling to work with data at scale, hampered by a lack of integrated governance, lineage, security and reporting capabilities. Bedrock and Mica solve this challenge by addressing data visibility, reliability, security, privacy and accessibility. The key to the Bedrock platform is that it allows enterprises to easily design pipelines for complex data formats from ingestion to analytics, doing the heavy lifting when it comes to data manipulation so that businesses can spend more time finding insights. This new version of Bedrock provides more advanced and customizable dashboards, making it the command center for governing data within the data lake.”
