  • Enterprise data cloud company Cloudera, (NYSE: CLDR) has announced the general availability of Cloudera Data Platform Private Cloud (CDP Private Cloud)

Enterprise data cloud company Cloudera, (NYSE: CLDR) has announced the general availability of Cloudera Data Platform Private Cloud (CDP Private Cloud). The CDP Private Cloud extends cloud-native speed, simplicity, and economics for the connected data lifecycle to the data center, thus enabling IT departments to respond to business needs faster and deliver better service levels so people can be more productive with data.

Operating CDP Private Cloud is simpler for IT with powerful container-based management tools that reduce the time to deliver analytics and machine learning from weeks to minutes. And it also changes the game for data center economics with container-based analytics and machine learning to help reduce data center costs by increasing server utilization up to 70% while also reducing storage and data center overhead. Overall, CDP Private Cloud can deliver up to 50% more analytics for the same data center investment.

Through CDP Private Cloud, IT departments can now meet the exponential demand for data analytics and machine learning services with a petabyte-scale hybrid data architecture that can flex to use private and public clouds. And according to IDC, 84% of customers are repatriating workloads from the public cloud with 67% of applications in both public and private cloud environments.

Hybrid cloud is strategic and practical for large enterprises. And CDP Private Cloud is built for hybrid cloud, seamlessly connecting on-premises environments to public clouds with consistent, built-in security, and governance. Plus it runs the same easy-to-use analytic experiences in the data center that have been proven in CDP Public Cloud on AWS and Azure.

Cloudera’s ecosystem of technology partners that are certified on Cloudera Data Platform includes Anaconda, Gluent, H2O.ai, OwlDQ, Pepperdata, Portworx, Precisely, Protegrity, Qlik, Talend, and Unravel Data.

The CDP Private Cloud is available in Base and Plus editions. The Base edition includes SDX, storage management, and traditional bare metal data lifecycle analytics. And it is equivalent to CDP Data Center — which it replaces.

The Plus edition includes Base and adds container-based analytic experiences for Data Warehousing and Machine Learning, and container-based management and control plane services. And additional control plane services and analytic experiences across the data lifecycle are planned for future CDP Private Cloud offerings.

The CDP Private Cloud Plus pricing is based on compute and storage, the standard for cloud pricing, and is available as an annual subscription. The annual subscription of the Plus edition is $400 per compute unit (one physical core and 8 GB RAM) and $25 per TB of addressed storage.
