  • Delphix Brings Even More Speed, Security to Amazon Relational Database Service

    Leading hospitality company Choice Hotels, other global enterprises rely on the Delphix DataOps platform leveraging Amazon Relational Database Service to quickly, securely migrate data to the cloud, fuel mission-critical digital transformation initiatives

     

    LAS VEGAS, Nev. @ AWS re:Invent 2018, November 28, 2018 – Delphix, the company accelerating innovation through DataOps, today announced the availability of the Delphix Dynamic Data Platform (DDDP) leveraging Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS). Building on the long-standing relationship between Delphix and Amazon Web Services, Inc. (AWS), this innovative solution will provide cloud development teams at global enterprises with the fast, secure data they need to bring cloud-native applications to market with the speed required to win in today’s digital economy.

     

    According to PWC’s 2018 “Innovation Benchmark” report, nearly three-quarters of businesses say they are being out-innovated by competitors. Applications are rapidly becoming more complex, intelligent, and data-intensive, leaving companies struggling with legacy data infrastructure, unable to use it to deliver innovation that keeps pace with ever-changing consumer demands.

     

    Development teams need easy access to data in on-demand cloud environments, but operations are mired in manual tasks like database provisioning and data redaction – forcing development teams to wait days or weeks for data. As these organizations migrate more workloads to the cloud, they are faced with the painful reality that their data can’t move at the speed enabled by the cloud. The explosion of demand required to support a data-driven enterprise creates intense friction with the ever-increasing cost, complexity, and risk of managing, distributing, and securing that data.

     

    Amazon RDS was created to simplify this process, enabling teams to quickly and easily create new production environments, as needed, in a scalable and manageable manner. The Delphix Dynamic Data Platform was created to allow for ready access to data in non-production development and test environments so teams can move faster at lower cost, without compromising data privacy. This powerful combination gives customers a solution that will help them deliver continuous innovation to the market quickly and securely, at a fraction of the time and cost.

     

    “Many of our customers trust Amazon RDS to manage their databases at scale,” said Anurag Gupta, Vice President, Analytics, Aurora, and RDS, Amazon Web Services, Inc. “By working with Delphix, we can not only make database management easier for enterprises, but also provide the performance enhancements these organizations need to accelerate mission-critical initiatives and win in their respective markets.”

     

    As part of today’s announcement, the Delphix platform on Amazon RDS offers:

     

    • High scalability, availability, and manageability of production databases on AWS;
    • On-demand Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) provisioning of production database copies in minutes, bringing the speed and agility of the cloud to databases;
    • Self-service controls to refresh, branch, bookmark, and share so developers can treat data as code, integrated with DevOps tools and the Delphix Automation Framework;
    • Integrated data masking to identify and mitigate risk in downstream environments;
    • Extensible plugins that support Oracle, PostgreSQL, and MySQL – with more to come.

     

    “Digital transformation initiatives are being undertaken by enterprises to deliver innovative, new experiences to customers faster than ever before. This increased rate of application refresh places dramatically more pressure on developers and the development process,” said Al Gillen, group VP, Software Development and Open Source, IDC. “With the Delphix DataOps platform on Amazon RDS, companies now have a new target platform to host data for development and testing, reducing friction to help development teams accelerate delivery of next-generation applications.”


    “As we look to shift more and more workloads to the cloud to bring greater efficiency and agility to our business, governance and managing data for modern software development lifecycles has become one of our top issues as we fully adopt cloud,” said Nick Suwyn, Principal Systems Engineer at Choice Hotels. “The Delphix platform minimizes security concerns and provides automated data environments in the cloud to drive software innovation faster and faster each day.”

    DataOps Goes Cloud-Native

    In use by nearly one-half of the Fortune 50, Delphix is deplyed by some of the largest brands in the world to fuel and accelerate mission-critical transformation initiatives. By opening up the flow of data, the Delphix platform works with Amazon RDS to help enable the creation of secure data environments in just minutes. What’s more, the ability to automate data environment provisioning is at the heart of a DataOps approach that has accelerated both software development and cloud migration projects. Fast gaining momentum in the market, DataOps was recently identified as the latest “Innovation Trigger” in three Gartner “Hype Cycles” for 2018 (Data Management, Enterprise IT Management, and Data Security) and is expected to achieve mainstream adoption in five years.

    “Data is a major impediment to achieving the speed needed to win in today’s digital economy,” said Chris Cook, CEO, Delphix. “Building on our long-standing relationship with AWS, Delphix on Amazon RDS helps secure data on AWS to enable more enterprises to accelerate innovation, move to the cloud, and lead their respective markets.”

  • Delphix Bolsters Executive Team to Support Surging Global Demand for DataOps

    New Chief Marketing Officer and First-Ever Global Practice Director for Data Transformation join Delphix to help enterprises around the world accelerate digital innovation

    REDWOOD CITY, Calif., November 16, 2018 – Delphix, the company enabling the largest enterprises in the world to accelerate digital innovation through DataOps, today announced a significant expansion to its executive team with the addition of Monika Saha as its new Chief Marketing Officer (CMO) and Sanjeev Sharma to lead its newly-established “Data Transformation” team. In use by nearly one-half of Fortune 50 global leaders, Delphix is bringing on these seasoned executives to help scale operations to meet the increased demands of today’s burgeoning DataOps market, which Gartner expects to hit the mainstream in five years.

    Rapid and secure access to data is a tremendous bottleneck for companies that are in a race to monetize new digital services and deliver personalized experiences to customers. The friction between an organization’s obligation to maintain compliance with data security and privacy regulations, and the need to quickly and simply feed crucial digital initiatives with the right data is slowing companies down. It is also inhibiting adoption of emerging technologies like advanced machine learning and AI to drive deeper understanding of customer behavior. This friction is leading to an emerging data management practice called DataOps, recently recognized by Gartner as one of its new “innovation triggers” in its data management and security Hype Cycles. In a soon-to-be-released new report, 451 analyst Matt Aslett found that 86 percent of IT leaders surveyed intend to implement DataOps initiatives to improve cloud migration, address security concerns and boost innovation.

    “In a world where the fast eat the slow, every single industry is in a race to develop and monetize digitally-enabled services in the market faster and faster each day,” said Chris Cook, CEO, Delphix. “Monika and Sanjeev bring with them decades of experiences in building brands and categories. They will be integral to Delphix as we enter the next phase of our journey and take our DataOps platform to more enterprises around the world.”

    An 18 year veteran of the Software/SaaS space, Monika Saha joins Delphix after nearly decade at Zuora, where she was most recently the GM of Zuora’s Finance product line. During her time at Zuora, she held multiple leadership roles across sales, marketing, and product management and led a number of initiatives that propelled Zuora from an early stage Series B funded start-up through its successful IPO in 2018. She was instrumental in crafting Zuora’s leading market position in Forrester’s now-established “Recurring Customer and Billing Management” and IDC’s “Subscription Relationship Management” category, each of which serve as proof points of Zuora’s evangelism of the rise of the Subscription Economy(R).

    At Delphix, she will be responsible for shaping and influencing the company’s position in the market, leading the company’s global corporate and product marketing functions, and helping bring Delphix to the largest data-driven enterprises in the world across banking, healthcare, retail, manufacturing, and other key vertical industries.

    “Enterprises today are confronted with the dual challenge of accelerating digital innovation in a climate of unprecedented market disruption, while at the same time facing an increased burden of keeping up with a growing number of data security and compliance regulations”, said Monika Saha, Delphix CMO. “The intersection of these competing forces has created a strong demand for Delphix. Some of the largest brands in the world today rely on the Delphix Dynamic Data Platform to accelerate the pace at which they are delivering and monetizing new services without compromising on the security and privacy standards that govern the very data that fuels their innovation and livelihood.”

    Sanjeev Sharma is a best-selling author of “DevOps Adoption Playbook” and joins Delphix as its first-ever Global Practice Director for Data Transformation. For the past two decades, Sanjeev worked at tech giants IBM and Rational Software as an executive and Distinguished Engineer on his way to becoming a foremost authority on the issues of digital transformation, DevOps and the cloud. In this newly established role at Delphix, he will be tasked with helping enterprise organizations leverage data and DataOps practices and technologies to accelerate mission-critical transformation initiatives. An early pioneer in the DevOps movement, Sharma will play a lead role in helping to define the burgeoning DataOps category and build out its ecosystem.

    “We are in the midst of a massive IT shift, driven by three main forces: application modernization, cloud adoption, and AI and machine learning. Data sits at the core of this shift as major bottleneck to achieving the speed and scale needed to get ahead in an increasingly digital world,” said Sanjeev Sharma, Global Practice Director for Data Transformation at Delphix. “DataOps is the next frontier of this IT transformation and will help more organizations around the world unlock the power of data to accelerate innovation and win in today’s modern IT landscape.”

  • Delphix and Datical Extend Global Partnership, Bring New DataOps Solutions to Modern Enterprises

     One-half of all Fortune 50 companies work with Delphix, Datical to deliver high quality software – faster and more securely – to close Data Velocity Gap

     REDWOOD CITY, Calif., October 23, 2018 – Delphix, the company accelerating innovation through DataOps, today announced it has extended its partnership with Datical, the leading provider of database release automation solutions, to bring new DataOps solutions to market that unlock the potential of data to drive business transformation. Already in use by  one-half of the Fortune 50, Delphix and Datical are driving the emerging DataOps ecosystem that will enable more Global 2000 companies to open up the flow of fast, secure data to move fast and compete in today’s Digital Economy.

    With worldwide enterprise data expected to grow to 163 zettabytes (ZB) by 2025 (Data Age 2025, IDC), software development and DevOps teams are drowning in data; unable to use it to deliver innovation that keeps pace with ever-changing consumer demands. Delphix and Datical offer proven solutions that eliminate delays through automation to achieve 100x faster high-quality software releases, 10x less cost and no production outages.

    “As large enterprises look to accelerate their digital businesses, two of the biggest challenges they face are the incredible volumes of data being generated and the related lack of velocity from their database layer,” said Stephen O’Grady, Principal Analyst with RedMonk. “While application development has been revolutionized by the DevOps phenomenon, database management has lagged behind. This issue is what’s created the demand for an equivalent ‘DataOps’ style movement, and is why Delphix and Datical are focusing on these needs so intently.”

    “Businesses are feeling the debilitating effects of data friction, challenging their ability to move fast and confidently compete in today’s digital economy,” said Tony Orlando, SVP of Global Field Operations, Delphix. “Through our partnership with Datical and the DataOps ecosystem at large, we are enabling the secure, continuous flow of data within the world’s most complex enterprises, empowering them to accelerate innovation, reduce costs, increase quality and lead in their markets for years to come.”  

    Modern Enterprises Rely on DataOps to Unlock the Potential of Data

     “Data remains locked in legacy systems, and is holding [CEOs] back,” said Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff in a recent earnings call. Over the last three years, Delphix and Datical have worked with some of the most important brands in the world to help them unlock data to accelerate software development and close the costly data velocity gap.

     Together, Delphix and Datical enable enterprises to dramatically accelerate software development and testing. The unique combination of these solutions reduces the amount of time it takes to provision production-quality data from days or weeks to just minutes, while also eliminating manual tasks, such as reviewing and validating database schema and logic changes. Integrating these solutions into a software development toolchain is at the heart of the DataOps approach that transforms how businesses deliver new releases.

    A Top 5 investment management firm based in the US (with over $2 trillion in assets under management) uses Delphix and Datical to increase the speed and quality of application releases that are the backbone of its digital transformation efforts. In a short period of time, the global brand achieved:

    • A 100% increase in rate of application deployments;
    • A 90% reduction in data provisioning times;
    • Dramatic improvement in quality from eliminating data-related defects.

    Pioneers in the DataOps movement, Delphix and Datical are at the forefront of building the platforms and technologies that support this emerging discipline. As Gartner recently recognized in its Hype Cycle for Data Management for 2018, DataOps is the next chapter in the DevOps story that will accelerate business and help create the modern data enterprise.

    “Software is reshaping all industries and the pace of change is accelerating. Companies must speed up innovation in order to survive in the digital era,” said Derek Hutson, CEO and President of Datical. “To achieve their goals of faster time-to-market, companies continue adopting faster, more iterative development methodologies to be able to change and adapt more quickly – but data has become the new constraint slowing them down. Datical and Delphix are in the perfect position to help enterprise leaders remove that constraint and modernize the way data is managed throughout the software delivery lifecycle.”
