WANdisco Integrates S3-Enabled HDFS Feature with Latest Apache Hadoop Distribution











WDD 3.6 Simplifies Public to Private Cloud Migration and Data Import




San Jose (Hadoop Summit, Booth 50), CA – June 26, 2013 - WANdisco (LSE: WAND), a provider of high-availability software for global enterprises to meet the challenges of Big Data and distributed software development, today announced the newest release of WANdisco Distro (WDD). Powered by Apache Hadoop 2, WDD 3.6 includes S3-Enabled HDFS as well as utilities for seamlessly importing data from external sources into HDFS.

Simplified Cloud Migration and Data Transfer

With WDD 3.6 and the new S3-enabled HDFS feature, all Amazon S3 capabilities are delivered, including searchable metadata tagging of images, video and other unstructured data, snapshots, and data object versioning. In addition, popular third-party applications that use Amazon’s S3 API will run unmodified. By implementing WANdisco’s Non-Stop NameNode solutions with WDD 3.6, private cloud deployments with these S3 features are available 24/7, with unmatched scalability and performance.

WDD, which features an intuitive UI that simplifies Hadoop cluster installation and administration, also supports seamless and transparent data ingestion into HDFS from external sources such as webserver logs, data appliances, RDBMS servers, and others. Finally, a new Hadoop user stack interface architecture simplifies the addition of Hadoop ecosystem components for further ease of deployment.

“Feedback from the Wikibon community indicates that the public cloud, specifically the Amazon Web Services cloud, is a popular choice for experimenting with Hadoop and Big Data application development,” said Jeff Kelly, Big Data Analyst, Wikibon. “Many enterprises, however, prefer to bring Hadoop back in-house when moving to production. WANdisco Distro with S3-enabled HDFS makes migrations significantly simpler, allowing enterprises to seamlessly move data from the Amazon cloud to in-house private cloud environments without needing to rewrite Big Data applications.”

All WDD components are tested and certified using Apache BigTop, a sophisticated framework for the development, integration testing, and deployment of the Apache Hadoop ecosystem. WANdisco also works closely with the open source community as well as other leading big data vendors to ensure seamless interoperability across the Hadoop ecosystem, enabling users to leverage investments in new and existing Hadoop-compatible tools and applications without vendor lock-in.

"An increasing number of enterprises are looking to move their skunkworks projects from Amazon to private clouds and WANdisco Distro simplifies the process," said David Richards, CEO of WANdisco. "With this release, we’re continuing to simplify Hadoop so enterprises can focus on reaping the benefits of Big Data."

Availability

WDD 3.6, based on Apache Hadoop 2.0.5, is available for free immediate download at www.wandisco.com/hadoop/download.

WANdisco Launches Git MultiSite



Adds Enterprise Performance for Distributed Version Control Users

Solution Eliminates Downtime & Data Loss and Provides Global High Availability/Disaster Recovery



Sheffield, UK - WANdisco (LSE: WAND), a provider of high-availability software for global enterprises to meet the challenges of Big Data and distributed software development, announces the launch of Git MultiSite. Git MultiSite is a software solution based on WANdisco's unique patented replication technology that provides 100% uptime and dramatically improved global performance for users of the popular distributed version control system. Distributed teams using Git can now collaborate seamlessly as if they were all in one office.



As with its leading Subversion product, Git MultiSite applies WANdisco's patented Continuous Availability™ replication technology to remove the single point of failure, performance bottleneck and WAN latency issues associated with a central master server. With Git MultiSite, the central Git master server becomes a system of distributed peer servers that are fully readable and writeable and always in sync. If sites or servers go offline, the rest remain fully operational for all users. Merge conflicts and other issues are identified and resolved as soon as they occur, rather than days later, accelerating development cycles and improving product quality. Likewise, administrative tasks can be performed worldwide from a single location while the transaction dashboard monitors the status of each site.



Git MultiSite Key Features:

● Enterprise Class Performance: Developers at every location have access to the most up-to-date changes and enjoy LAN-speed performance for all operations.

● Eliminates Downtime and Data Loss: Removes the single point of failure, WAN latency and performance bottleneck of a central Git master repository. Backup, failover and recovery are automatic.

● Easy to Administer and Manage: New repositories can be added as necessary to accommodate new locations, eliminating downtime during maintenance.

● Open Solution Avoids Vendor Lock-In: Built with open source Git, which can be used with any other open or closed source software that works with Git. Developers and administrators use the Git protocols, GUIs, and other tools that fit their needs.

● Resolves Conflicts Quickly: Merge conflicts and other issues are identified and resolved as soon as they occur, not days later as is often the case in distributed environments.



"We have taken the core WANdisco patented replication technology, in use by thousands of customers, and applied it to the increasingly popular open source Git, enhancing its inherent speed and efficiency with our shared-nothing architecture to eliminate downtime," said David Richards, WANdisco CEO. "Git MultiSite eliminates the risks associated with a master repository model, allowing enterprises to realize the benefits of distributed version control on a global scale, resulting in shorter development cycles, higher quality, and lower costs."

Q2 2013 Bookings Update

Q2 Subscription bookings increase by 66 per cent year-on-year

Renewal rate 109 per cent



Sheffield, UK - WANdisco (LSE: WAND), a provider of high-availability software for global enterprises to meet the challenges of Big Data and distributed software development, is pleased to provide the following update for the three months ended 30 June 2013.



The Company's core ALM products continue to deliver strong subscription and renewals growth. The period has also seen the Company make significant steps forward with its plans to target the opportunity open to it in the Big Data space.



In the second quarter of the current financial year, subscription bookings reached a record level of $3.063 million, representing a 66 per cent increase year-on-year (2012: $1.844 million, which gave 43 per cent year-on-year growth). When combined with bookings of $3.035 million achieved in the first quarter, the Company achieved total bookings for the first half of $6.098 million: an 80 per cent increase year-on-year.



Notable new customers signed in the second quarter include Canon, Cisco, Blue Cross Blue Shield, LSI Corp, ADP and Areva. In addition, the Company saw further significant growth in existing customer accounts including Mentor Graphics, Western Digital and Ladbrokes: each of which expanded its use of WANdisco products within its organisation.



The annualised renewal rate by booking value was 109 per cent. Renewals included Intel, Dell, Walmart, Harris, Sears, Halliburton and Disney. The second half of the year has traditionally been the stronger trading period and we anticipate this trend continuing.



The Company has already announced the release of significant new products for the fast growing Hadoop Big Data market, and these products are currently in trial with a number of customers. These include a global high availability solution for Enterprises that use Hadoop to manage their business critical applications.



The Company secured its first Big Data customers, including a UK-based tier-1 telecommunications company and Nokia Siemens Networks ('NSN') during the period. NSN has embedded WANdisco's Hadoop technology across its product portfolio, replacing traditional database technology. The Company believes this latter deal will yield significant sales over the coming period.



WANdisco will report results for the first half of the financial year on Thursday, 26 September 2013.

WANdisco's subscriptions hit a record level
By John Harrington July 18 2013, 10:50am The second half of the year has traditionally been the stronger trading period and WANdisco anticipates this trend continuing.The second half of the year has traditionally been the stronger trading period and WANdisco anticipates this trend continuing.

WANdisco (LON:WAND), the enterprise software company, saw subscription bookings reach a record level in the second quarter.

Bookings rose 66% from a year earlier to US$3.06mln. When combined with bookings of US$3.04mln achieved in the first quarter, the company notched up total bookings for the first half of US$6.1mln, an 80% increase year-on-year. Meanwhile, the annualised renewal rate by booking value was 109%.

The period has also seen the company make significant steps forward with its plans to target the opportunity open to it in the Big Data space, WANdisco said.

‘Big data’ is computer industry jargon to describe the welter of information that is available to enterprises in the modern world, and the need to make sense of it.

WANdisco has already announced the release of significant new products for the fast growing Hadoop Big Data market, and these products are currently in trial with a number of customers.

The company secured its first Big Data customers, including a UK-based tier-1 telecommunications company and Nokia Siemens Networks (NSN) during the period. NSN has embedded WANdisco's Hadoop technology across its product portfolio, replacing traditional database technology. WANdisco reckons the NSN deal will yield significant sales over the coming period.

House broker Panmure Gordon said the second quarter subscription levels were a whisker ahead of its top of the range estimate.

The broker is also impressed that NSN is placing so much trust in the Hadoop technology. “To remind, the database market is worth cUS$25.5bn with the associated enterprise application software market worth US$115bn, according to Gartner analysts. So, there is a big prize and so far no Hadoop presence,” the broker notes.

“If enterprise folks are now thinking about migrating to Hadoop as a replacement more so than additive, or indeed are using in anger there will be an associated requirement for RASS features. RASS – a.k.a. [also known as] reliability, availability security and serviceability - are necessary key requirements of enterprise buyers when there is a business risk should core applications fail.

“As the ‘Continuous Availability on Hadoop’ vendor, supported by patented technology, WANdisco then emerges as the ‘go to’ guy for any vendor, OEM [original equipment manufacturer], integrator or user looking at deploying Hadoop in an Enterprise setting,” the broker continues, while noting that “possibly NSN is the exception that proves the rule.”

Investors were not, perhaps, as wildly enthusiastic about the company’s prospects as Panmure Gordon, but still pushed the share price up 3% to 984p in mid-morning trade

Bookings heading north at WANdisco




There was a nice Q2 update from WANdisco which showed subscription bookings up 66% yoy compared to a 43% yoy rise this time last year. It does have good growth story – see here. For H1 bookings were up 80%. Renewals are excellent and it is pulling in new customers – the latest set includes Canon, Cisco, Blue Cross Blue Shield, LSI Corp, ADP and Areva. H2 is traditionally stronger than H1 so there may be even better things to come. WANdisco is worth watching as it will be a guide to big data adoption in the UK and elsewhere. It has started to talk of big data pilots - we hope to see these roll into full implementations.
