ARMONK, N.Y., June 21, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- IBM (NYSE:
IBM) and Cloudera (NYSE: CLDR) today announced a strategic
partnership to develop joint go-to-market programs designed to
bring advanced data and AI solutions to more organizations across
the expansive Apache Hadoop ecosystem.
The agreement builds on the long-standing relationship between
IBM and Hortonworks, which merged with Cloudera in January, 2019,
and created integrated solutions for data science and data
management. The new agreement builds on these integrated solutions
and extends them to include the Cloudera platform.
As part of the partnership, IBM will resell the Cloudera
Enterprise Data Hub and Cloudera DataFlow. In addition, Cloudera
will begin to resell IBM's Watson Studio and BigSQL.
"By teaming more strategically with IBM we can accelerate
data-driven decision making for our joint enterprise customers who
want a hybrid and multi-cloud data management solution with common
security and governance," said Scott
Andress, Vice President of Global Channels and Alliances,
Cloudera. "We are pleased to have expanded our relationship with
IBM, and I am very encouraged by the momentum that our companies
have continued to generate together since the merger."
