The “yes” answers surrounding the adoption of Big Data are numerous and impressive:
- Will Big Data help me deliver a superior customer experience? Yes!
- Will it support more informed decision-making? Yes!
- Will it lead to a more successful overall business? Yes!
- Will it replace conjecture (no matter how informed) with solid facts? Yes!
- Will it drive growth? Yes!
But when it comes to big data being able to ensure data security, the answer has not been as definitive. And that continues to be a reason for hesitation, especially in regulated industries and specifically for medium and small enterprises. Healthcare and financial institutions that are required to meet stringent government and industry regulations must know that all data is secure before embarking on their journey to Big Data. And that assurance has not been available … until now.
Secure enterprise-grade Hadoop with Cloudera and HPE? YES!!
HPE has teamed up with Cloudera to build and deliver a secure Hadoop environment for regulated industries. The full solution includes:
- Cloudera Enterprise Data Hub with integrated data security features to help enterprises mitigate data security risks. These security-specific features/capabilities include Cloudera Manager, Apache Sentry and Record Service, Cloudera Navigator, Navigator Encrypt and Key Trustee and additional encryption partner solutions
- HPE Enterprise-grade Hadoop Solution unlocks the value from Hadoop investments with a proven approach that includes, infrastructure, software, services, and robust add-ons for enterprises that are new to Hadoop or expanding an existing Hadoop installation.
