The News Follows Unravel’s Introduction of New Artificial Intelligence for IT Operations (AIOps) Capabilities for Automated Performance Tuning of Big Data Applications
PALO ALTO, Calif., Sept. 26, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Unravel Data, the application performance management (APM) platform designed for big data applications, today announced it has been named a 2018 Cool Vendor by leading research and advisory firm Gartner in the report titled, “Cool Vendors in Performance Analysis; Analytics and Containers.”
Gartner conducts its Cool Vendor research annually. Gartner’s Cool Vendor research is designed to highlight interesting, new and innovative vendors, products and services.
For this report, Gartner identified five companies that are leading the market with innovative approaches that I&O leaders can use to address challenges presented by containerization, cloud and microservices.
According to Gartner, “I&O leaders focused on IT operations transformation should: Prepare for their IT environment’s future state and monitoring needs by implementing container- and microservices-ready monitoring tools; Evaluate the vendors in this research by comparing their offerings and ability to deliver insight with those of your current monitoring portfolio; Improve visibility into DevOps and developer teams’ environments by embedding monitoring technologies like those examined in this research early in the development cycle.”
Unravel is the industry’s only APM platform designed for big data. Enterprises across financial, telecom, healthcare, technology and other industries leverage Unravel to operationalize their big data stack and improve reliability of applications and productivity of big data teams while reducing cost of ownership.
Unravel was founded in 2014 and so far in 2018 alone has supported more than 10,000 big data nodes and more than 50 million big data applications at Fortune 1000 companies, such as Kaiser Permanente, Leidos, Autodesk and Microsoft. With the market maturation of how big data investments are being monetized and with cloud migration requirements driving the need to support multi-cloud and hybrid workloads, Unravel delivers innovative AIOps capabilities, broad systems support, and interoperability to drive major efficiency gains and competitive agility for enterprises.
“Unravel Data was founded off the back of first-hand experience with the frustration of manually troubleshooting performance problems in big data stacks,” commented Kunal Agarwal, CEO of Unravel Data. “Today, we’re helping enterprises solve their big data problems around cost optimization, service level agreement guarantees, and proactive monitoring and automated remediation so that they spend less time firefighting issues. From our view, recognition from Gartner as a Cool Vendor is very exciting, validates our work, and underscores the momentum we have as we reimagine big data and change the way our customers transform to being data-driven and insight-led.”
