Data Warehouse Appliance Vendor is One of '36 Companies to Watch'
ALISO VIEJO, Calif., Jan. 14, 2008 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- DATAllegro(tm), the supplier of the most advanced data warehouse appliance on an enterprise-class platform, today announced that it is named among Intelligent Enterprise Editors' Choice Awards 2008 as one of "36 Companies to Watch."
Intelligent Enterprise listed DATAllegro in the information management category, stating: "This firm's open, hardware-independent approach to the data warehouse appliance is catching on. DATAllegro's innovative, grid-enabled design offers flexibility for multi-appliance, hub-and-spoke deployments." (For more information on DATAllegro's grid technology see press release from August 21, 2007.)
"Enterprises recognize the performance, manageability, and cost advantages data-warehouse appliances can offer. DATAllegro's appliance lines are distinguished by flexibility, reliability, and scalability afforded by their grid-enabled, parallel architecture, which incorporates well-proven hardware and an open-source database. DATAllegro is very much a company to watch," said Seth Grimes, an IT-strategy consultant, Intelligent Enterprise contributing editor, and an Editors' Choice selection participant.
In February 2007, DATAllegro introduced its v3 data warehouse appliance, which uses a non-proprietary platform based on standard Dell(tm) servers, EMC(r) storage, Cisco(r) switches, Intel(r) CPUs and Ingres(r)' open source database with DATAllegro's patent-pending software. DATAllegro was the also first DW appliance vendor to ship a data warehouse appliance on an open platform, which provides customers with many benefits, including superior reliability.
Also in 2007, DATAllegro became the first data warehouse appliance vendor to incorporate grid technology into its product, allowing customers to implement multi-appliance architectures such as hub-and-spoke, disaster recovery and multi-temperature. Two customers have already purchased DATAllegro's grid-enabled data warehouse appliance.
DATAllegro closed its 2007 fiscal year with a growth rate of 330 percent. The company's typical deal size is between $1-3 million, with some deals being notably larger. All of DATAllegro's customers have purchased systems with a minimum of 25 terabytes of data capacity with the majority being in the 25-100 terabyte range. DATAllegro has customers with more than 250 terabytes of capacity, making them among the largest data warehouse installations in the world, and almost certainly the largest data warehouse appliance installations.
"It is great to be recognized for our innovation, as well as the advantages our customers receive from our open platform and flexibility," said Stuart Frost, CEO of DATAllegro.
