Wrangler Partner Program Overview
Trifacta's Wrangler Partner Program is an ecosystem of reseller, consulting and technology vendors designed to promote the adoption of data wrangling within business departments and analytics teams. The program offers a range of go-to-market relationships to meet the needs of a variety of partner business models:

• Reseller -- businesses interested in reselling Trifacta's industry-leading data wrangling solutions.

• Consulting -- professional services firms interested in leveraging Trifacta to help organizations design, build and manage their analytics processes.

• Technology -- technology vendors interested in integrating with Trifacta to provide customers with best-of-breed solutions.

Accelerating collaboration with consulting and reseller organizations globally is a focal point of the program, as data wrangling continues to be identified as the most difficult bottleneck within analytics initiatives. Partners range from solution providers focused on analytics strategies and platform deployments, to vertically focused firms with industry domain expertise in healthcare, federal agencies, financial services, consumer packaged goods and telecom, among others.

"Lockheed Martin's Collaborative Advanced Analytics & Data Sharing (CAADS™) platform provides an end-to-end solution for predictive analytics in government healthcare," said Ravi Hubbly, senior technology manager, Information Systems & Global Solutions, Lockheed Martin (NYSE: LMT). "The data wrangling technology from Trifacta, used in CAADS, empowers data analysts through suggestive data cleaning and data preparation."

Recent partner and investor, Infosys (NYSE: INFY), a global consulting, technology and next-generation services company, partnered with Trifacta to provide a data wrangling solution for the Infosys Information Platform (IIP). This integration will help customers accelerate their ability to find value in data and address issues that arise with the growing scale and complexity of data.

"At Infosys, we aim to bring automation and innovation to everything that we do. Trifacta's intuitive solution for exploring and transforming data allows us to better help our clients overcome the issues that arise with the growing scale and complexity of data," said Abdul Razack, head of platforms, Infosys.

For technology partners, Trifacta is strategically focused on working with business intelligence vendors in response to growing demand from users for best-of-breed data wrangling solutions. As the data that makes up organizational reporting grows in scale and diversity, data wrangling solutions like Trifacta have become essential to the analysis process. Technology partners also include cloud service providers, Hadoop and relational data platform vendors, data catalog solutions and data ingestion technology providers, among others.

The Wrangler Partner Program complements Trifacta's strong ecosystem of existing partners, including Cloudera, Infosys, Lockheed Martin and Tableau. These partners are seeing a wealth of benefits and new opportunities from their collaboration with Trifacta, including new revenue opportunities, differentiated product and service offerings and the ability to deliver new value to customers.

"With the Wrangler Partner Program, we are able to achieve massive scale and empower more companies to make better use of data by providing a global network of leading service and technology providers with the tools that enable them to generate greater business value for their customers," said Fergus Moroney, vice president of business development and alliances, Trifacta. "We are excited to see such incredible adoption of Trifacta in the market, much of which is driven by our growing partner ecosystem and our integrations with the existing data platform and analytics technologies customers have already deployed within their organization."

Trifacta is developing relationships with companies worldwide to help complement, implement, operate and support customers deploying its data wrangling solution. Trifacta's partners help enterprises bridge the gap between raw data and analysis with Trifacta Wrangler Enterprise, the top-ranked end user data preparation solution by Dresner Advisory Services for the past two years. Trifacta was also recently recognized as champion and top vendor in the 2016 self-service data preparation and cataloguing market update report by Bloor Research.
