Cirata launches service to ease cloud data migration

Cirata has introduced its Data Migration as a Service (DMaaS) to assist enterprises in migrating large-scale data ecosystems like Hadoop to modern cloud platforms.

Cirata's new offering is designed to reduce migration timelines while minimising disruption. It enables businesses to harness the power of artificial intelligence (AI) and analytics on cloud platforms better. This launch aims to assist enterprises that face complex data transfer needs by automating the process and freeing them from technical challenges.

Danny Keating, Senior Director of Business Development at Cirata, said, "With Cirata DMaaS, businesses can take a huge step toward realising the power of AI and analytics on modern cloud platforms without being weighed down by the technical challenges of large-scale data migration."

"Our service is built to eliminate the usual hurdles of migrations, freeing up companies to focus on their core business priorities while we handle the data transition securely, seamlessly and at lightning speed."

Cirata's DMaaS leverages the company's Data Migrator solution, which automates the movement of data from Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS), Hive metadata, and cloud data sources to various cloud platforms, including Amazon S3, Azure Data Lake Storage Gen 2, Google Cloud Storage, and Oracle Object Store. This solution promises to move data without requiring modifications to existing applications or disrupting production systems, thereby ensuring zero risk of data loss and business continuity.

Some of Cirata DMaaS's key features include its capacity for automated, large-scale migrations. The service is designed to handle data migrations regardless of ongoing data changes, ensuring the process proceeds without causing system downtime or disrupting business operations.

Cirata highlights its service's rapid deployment and integration capabilities. With an average deployment time of two weeks and the potential to complete migrations in under three months, this feature allows organisations to quickly enjoy the benefits of cloud-based analytics and AI technologies.

A dedicated Cirata Data Integration Specialists team provides professional guidance and support throughout the migration process. They assist businesses from the initial assessment to full implementation, ensuring the migration experience is as efficient as possible.

The service also offers flexible, customer-focused onboarding. The Cirata team works remotely to evaluate each customer's use cases, plan deployments, and align migration goals to meet unique business needs. This approach seeks to adapt to each enterprise's specific requirements.

Cirata DMaaS is positioned as a tool for organisations to fully utilise AI and analytics in cloud environments, presenting an adaptable approach to contemporary data management challenges.
