I wanted to take this opportunity to share some important news. Today, Hortonworks announced version 1.0 of the Hortonworks Data Platform, a 100% open source data management platform based on Apache Hadoop. We believe strongly that Apache Hadoop, and therefore, Hortonworks Data Platform, will become the foundation for the next generation enterprise data architecture, helping companies to load, store, process, manage and ultimately benefit from the growing volume and variety of data entering into, and flowing throughout their organizations. The imminent release of Hortonworks Data Platform v1.0 represents a major step forward for achieving this vision.
You can read the full press release here. You can also read what many of our partners have to say about this announcement here. We were extremely pleased that industry leaders such as Attunity, Dataguise, Datameer, Karmasphere, Kognitio, MarkLogic, Microsoft, NetApp, StackIQ, Syncsort, Talend, 10gen, Teradata and VMware all expressed their support and excitement for Hortonworks Data Platform.
Those who have followed Hortonworks since our initial launch already know that we are absolutely committed to open source and the Apache Software Foundation. You will be glad to know that our commitment remains the same today. We don’t hold anything back. No proprietary code is being developed at Hortonworks.
Hortonworks Data Platform was created to make it easier for organizations and solution providers to install, integrate, manage and use Apache Hadoop. It includes the latest stable versions of the essential Hadoop components in an integrated and tested package. Here is a diagram that shows the Apache Hadoop components included in Hortonworks Data Platform:
