Master Data Management, the South African data management specialists and partner of Trillium Software, has announced the release of Trillium Software’s big data quality platform.
Trillium Big Data is the first data quality solution that brings the power of the flagship Trillium Software System directly to the Hadoop Big Data environment.

Trillium Big Data runs natively in Hadoop to help business leaders and IT professionals create a single, accurate view of their customers in order to rapidly prepare data for critical applications such as fraud detection and purchase analysis.

“Better data means better decisions. Trillium Software is the first data quality software provider to validate data that enables organisations to chart a buyer’s path to purchase,” says Phil Galati, CEO at Trillium Software. “In addition, timely risk mitigation, fraud detection and compliance are vital capabilities for sustaining competitive advantage in the retail, consumer products, and financial services industries.

“Trillium Big Data is the second in a series of planned new product launches for Trillium Software in 2015 which will help organisations increase the value of their data.”

“Early big data adopters consistently cite poor data quality as a massive challenge – just as it is in any analytics environment. Trillium Software’s solution solves this problem quickly by performing common data quality capabilities, such as data profiling, validation and enrichment directly against Hadoop. This solution ensures that analytics are run against trusted data,” says Gary Allemann, MD of Master Data Management.

“Trillium now offers a specific solution with a strong level of direct integration with Hadoop to help you derive business value from high volume data sets to uncover new business insights across your global Hadoop environment,” says Keith Kohl, vice-president, product management at Trillium Software.

“With Trillium Big Data, the newest analytic techniques like machine learning and identity stitching are fully supported. As a result, the value of big data is improved by providing seamless, scalable and powerful data quality capabilities to current Hadoop environments while also architecting Trillium Big Data for the future for new execution frameworks such as Spark and Tez.”
