SnapLogic and Intricity Introduce Program to Help Companies Accelerate Cloud and Big Data Adoption

SAN MATEO, CA--(Marketwired - Jan 20, 2016) - SnapLogic, the industry's leading enterprise integration platform as a service (iPaaS) for big data, and Intricity, a leading data management consultancy, today announced a new program designed to help innovative IT leaders accelerate cloud and big data adoption within their organizations. The 3-day Integration Modernization Assessment will outline the steps for transitioning from legacy data and application technologies to a modern platform, paving the way for faster, easier integrations, reduced costs and increased return on cloud investments.

"The right application and data integration strategy is essential for faster and more successful enterprise cloud and big data adoption. Unfortunately, many IT organizations today are still relying on legacy technologies that were built for the rows-and-columns world, causing them to struggle with modern data requirements such as REST, JSON, and Hadoop," said Jack Kudale, senior vice president of Field Operations at SnapLogic.

Kudale continued, "Over the past 12 months, we've been talking to a growing number of Informatica customers, for example, who are facing difficult upgrades and end-of-life for older versions of their data integration software. To assist with digital transformation initiatives, we've worked with Intricity to introduce a 3-day Integration Modernization Assessment that helps companies understand their options for developing a more cost-effective and productive integration strategy."

Participants will receive a no-cost, no-obligation assessment that will explore how to reduce integration time, effort and cost and provide recommendations for getting a better return on their cloud and big data investments.

"We have found that too many companies don't understand that there are more options beyond time-consuming and cumbersome point-to-point integrations," said Arkady Kleyner, vice president and co-founder at Intricity. "We are excited to work with SnapLogic on this innovative program that enables technology leaders to explore the impacts of modernizing their integration strategy."

According to Gartner, "Integration can be a source of competitive differentiation and an enabler for bimodal IT, but most CIOs have yet to recognize that their traditional, established integration strategies cannot cope with digitalization's fast technology innovation and accelerated pace of business." ¹
