Talend Announces Spark-Powered Data Integration Platform


At Strata + Hadoop World in New York City, Talend, a provider of data integration software for the cloud and big data, is announcing a new version of its platform, now offering support for Apache Spark and Spark Streaming. Talend 6 will leverage over 100 Spark components to deliver rapid data processing speed and enable any company to convert streaming big data or IoT sensor information into immediate actionable insights.

Talend 6 is being showcased this week at Strata + Hadoop World at booth 846, September 30 through October 1 at the Javits Convention Center.

“Fast analytics absolutely requires fast data integration, so we are very happy to be first to market with native Spark and Spark Streaming support,” said Mike Tuchen, CEO at Talend. “We made a big bet on Spark, because we understand that in an increasingly competitive marketplace, every moment is material when it comes to business critical information.”

Conversion of MapReduce jobs to Spark can be completed at the click of a button for existing Talend customers.  According to Talend, version 6.0’s intuitive design interface and prebuilt Spark components with automated ‘no coding required’ Spark code generation will boost productivity by ten times.

Additionally, new improvements to Talend’s platform include support for Continuous Delivery, Master Data Management (MDM) REST API and Query Language Support, and Data Masking and Semantic Analytics.

"This is an exciting time in the evolution of Spark as more leaders like Talend adopt the engine and help drive it into the mainstream,” said John Tripier, head of business development at Databricks. “For years large web companies have been turning real-time data management and analytics into a major competitive advantage, with Apache Spark and intuitive integration platforms like Talend 6, the playing field is about to get a lot more even.”
