Real-Time Streaming Data Leader Striim Continues its Global Expansion into the United Kingdom and Europe

Striim Showcasing Striim Cloud at Stand #738 at Big Data LDN September 21 and 22

BIG DATA LDN, London, September 21, 2022 Striim, a global leader in unified real-time data streaming and integration, today announced at the Big Data LDN conference and expo that it has expanded its worldwide reach and is making its fully managed data streaming service Striim Cloud available to the United Kingdom and Europe. This is the first time enterprise customers in these regions will have access to a zero-maintenance, infinitely scalable platform that enables them to easily build real-time data pipelines to stream trillions of events every day, backed by enterprise-grade operational, security, and management that’s also SOC 2 and GDPR compliant. Striim Cloud supports 100’s of popular sources and targets such as Salesforce, Oracle, PostgreSQL, MS SQL, Google BigQuery, Microsoft Azure Synapse, Snowflake, and Databricks.

“Real-time data and its insights are now a ‘must have’ for global enterprises, and organizations are rapidly modernizing their data architectures to enable real-time analytics and insights. Europe has significant data governance challenges, so building data products from many data sources is especially challenging,” said Alok Pareek, Striim’s co-founder and EVP, product. “Using a fully-managed solution such as Striim Cloud on Microsoft Azure or Google Cloud enables our EU-based customers to quickly and easily build highly available, scalable data products that conform to the specific needs and legal requirements of the region and gain a competitive edge.

Recent shifts in the global economy have forced companies to speed up their transformation and data modernization projects so they can be more agile and responsive to their customers and suppliers. This has brought an increased focus on customer experience, supply chain, and operations across all industries (finance, retail, manufacturing, logistics/supply chain, healthcare). Technical architects and CIOs are tasked with making data accessible, self-service, and actionable across their organizations via enterprise streaming data patterns, such as data mesh. 

Legacy ETL solutions were not designed for these new modern, agile business needs. The common “batch” model of data integration cannot support real-time use cases related to a modern customer experience that requires business intelligence, up-to-the-second decision-making, and real-time operations. Streaming data and real-time analytics, by comparison, inform customer strategies and tactics across the entire organization.

Striim Cloud delivers these capabilities for the enterprise in a managed service that eliminates the complexity of building low-latency streaming data pipelines at scale. Instead of spending weeks implementing this new infrastructure, global enterprises can now integrate data from disparate sources in just a few clicks. 

Striim Cloud is a GDPR-compliant service that offers a suite of capabilities to help customers comply with the management of access rights under the GDPR. 

  • Privacy & Security – Striim Cloud offers a suite of capabilities to help customers comply with the management of access rights under the GDPR. Users can manage and control their users’ access using RBAC (Role-Based Access Control)
  • International data transfers – Striim Cloud complies with international or third country data transfer agreements as per GDPR
  • Processes – Striim Cloud implements various internal processes to meet the GDPR obligations as it relates to data subject, such as access, rectification, erasure, portability, etc.

Striim is showcasing its Striim Cloud managed service at stand #738 at the Big Data LDN conference and expo in London on September 21 and 22. Interested parties are welcome to visit or can arrange an appointment here – striim.com/big-data-london-2022. In addition, Striim’s executives, including co-founder and EVP, product, Alok Pareek, and John Kutay, Director of Product, will be sharing their insights on data mesh streaming patterns and the latest trends in data, including data products, data mesh, and data lake houses during their sessions at Big Data LDN. More information can be found here and here. Alternatively, CIOs, CDOs, and data engineers not attending the conference can find out more here https://striim.com/striim-cloud.

Striim Achieves SOC 2 Type II Certification, Ensuring Compliance with the Industry Standard for Data Security

Striim’s platform and its security practices were successfully audited

PALO ALTO, Calif., September 8, 2022 Striim,  a global leader in unified real-time data integration and streaming, today announced it completed the SOC 2 Type II Service Organization Control audit for its platform, data security processes, and controls. As a result, the company’s customers and users are assured that they can trust Striim to provide a secure and reliable element of their critical data architecture. This audit is designed to test Striim’s adherence to the strictest security policies and the operational effectiveness of the specified controls over time.

“Our unified real-time data streaming and integration platforms, Striim Cloud and Striim Platform, continuously ingest, process, and deliver high volumes of data for enterprise analytics and operations. This data often contains sensitive customer, financial, and business information, so our customers need to be able to trust Striim, and its software, for security, availability, and confidentiality,” said Steve Wilkes, Striim’s co-founder, and CTO. “With this certification, customers have peace of mind as they embark on digital transformation initiatives.” 

The SOC 2 Type II certification confirms that Striim Platform and Striim Cloud (fully managed SaaS available on Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud) both meet or exceed the most stringent security measures that align with worldwide industry standards and best practices, as set by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA). SOC 2 Type II assesses and certifies the design of security processes and controls conducted by the organization and guarantees the implementation of internal controls for security over a significant amount of time. The requirements and security measures are constantly monitored, evaluated, and updated to reflect changing needs and offer the safest environment for conducting business. 

SOC 2 Type II is much more than a simple certification. Businesses must conduct annual audits to ensure ongoing certification, which requires ongoing diligence from the organization’s technology and product staff. Interested parties can learn more about this process and Striim’s journey to certification here.

Striim Joins Forces with Microsoft to Speed Cloud and Digital Transformation

Striim Cloud integrates with Microsoft Intelligent Data Platform to enable real-time streaming data from major CRM applications like Salesforce and mission-critical databases like Oracle for real-time analytics and operations 

PALO ALTO, Calif., JUNE 28, 2022 Striim, Inc. announced an expansion of its existing agreement with Microsoft to meet increasing customer demand for real-time analytics and operations. In addition to the current cloud modernization integration, Microsoft customers can now leverage Striim Cloud on Microsoft Azure for continuous, streaming data integration from on-premises and cloud enterprise sources to Azure Synapse Analytics and Power BI, taking full advantage of the Microsoft Intelligent Data Platform. This continued collaboration between the two companies accelerates enterprise customers’ cloud adoption and digital transformation by making critical business data available in real time, enabling an unbeatable, data-driven customer experience with up to the second operational visibility.

As businesses build modern data capabilities, they must make decisions at the speed of human thought. Still, the vast silos between databases, applications, and analytic products and the resulting complexity of a fragmented data estate can hamper the pace of agility and innovation. Through their extended collaboration with Microsoft, Striim aims to provide customers with a way to break down these data silos and eliminate the complexity of data integration, enabling data engineers, data scientists, and business analysts to get real-time data when and where they need it most.

Striim Cloud is a fully-managed software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform for real-time streaming data integration and analytics. Requiring zero infrastructure management and backed by enterprise-grade operational, security, and management features, Striim Cloud’s infinitely scalable platform enables customers to transform their businesses by adopting new cloud models, digitizing legacy systems, and modernizing their application infrastructure. By taking advantage of Striim Cloud’s high-performance real-time change data capture (CDC) and application streams, enterprises can quickly build new smart data pipelines to accelerate innovation. With a few clicks, Azure customers can add Striim Cloud from the Azure Marketplace to quickly build data pipelines and stream trillions of events daily to Azure Synapse Analytics and Power BI, enabling real-time analytics and addressing time-sensitive operational issues. 

“Enterprise customers are finding it difficult to realize the power of the cloud as so much of their data resides in on-premises, enterprise databases, and cloud-based applications,” said Phillip Cockrell, senior vice president of business development at Striim. “This solution enables Azure customers to create smart data pipelines between their disparate data sources and their analytic products quickly, easily, and confidently.”

The extended agreement will enable customers to achieve the sustained agility that allows them to pivot and adapt in real-time, add layers of intelligence to their applications, and unlock fast and predictive insights from data wherever it resides.

Sharieff Mansour, General Manager, Data + AI + Mixed Reality Marketing, Microsoft, added, “Striim Cloud integration with the Microsoft Intelligent Data Platform enables rich, real-time data streaming from major CRM applications and mission-critical databases to enable our customers to unlock new actionable business insights and make real-time business decisions.” 

Striim Cloud on Microsoft Azure is available today.

Striim pushes the boundaries of performance and scale with Striim Platform 4.1

This latest release adds new capabilities to Striim’s real-time streaming platform by enabling continuous data integration with enterprise databases, data warehouses, and applications including Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB, Databricks, and Salesforce

PALO ALTO, Calif., JUNE 7, 2022 – Today, Striim, Inc. announced Striim Platform 4.1, the latest version of its unified real-time data integration and streaming platform. This new release builds on Striim’s industry-leading capabilities by increasing the number of sources and targets that customers can read from and write to using Striim’s built-in adapters, with over 125 sources and targets now supported, including data ingestion using change streams from Azure Cosmos DB and delivery into Databricks Delta Lake. Striim Platform 4.1 offers significant enhancements for customers to stream and integrate data at scale by making it easier to manage hundreds of data pipelines running across a Striim cluster. Customers can power their high-performance applications by reading multi-terabytes of data per day using OJet, a new, high-performance Oracle Change Data Capture (CDC) reader. Striim also supports emerging workload patterns and collaboration among developers and database administrators by sending real-time alerts and notifications to their Slack channels. To get started with Striim Platform 4.1, visit https://www.striim.com/.

“The data-driven enterprise of 2025” requires data to be “processed and delivered in real time” so that it can be “embedded in every decision, interaction, and process,” according to McKinsey & Company, the leading management consulting firm. McKinsey has identified key enablers such as infrastructure that can transport “high-bandwidth, low-latency data,” “modern data architectures” that can support a vast array of data stores such as relational and NoSQL databases and messaging systems, and enterprise architectures for real-time analysis that can lead to faster, more powerful insights and better decision-making. 

With a few clicks, Striim’s customers can quickly build smart real-time data pipelines to stream trillions of events every day, backed by enterprise-grade scalability, security, and high availability features. Striim Plaform’s zero-maintenance, infinitely scalable platform enables customers to digitally transform their businesses by rapidly adopting new cloud models, digitizing legacy systems, and modernizing their application infrastructure.

“Striim is the only solution that delivers unified real-time data integration and SQL-driven data streaming to enable end-to-end smart data pipelines for digital transformation,” said Alok Pareek, Executive Vice President of Products and Engineering at Striim. “We’re bringing more to our customers: more performance and more scale so that they can continuously expand their data platforms to discover new meaning and relationships in their data to accelerate innovation.”  

Striim Platform 4.1 expands on its mission with key features such as:

New adapters to read high throughput data streams:  High-performance applications can generate high volumes of data from operational databases. Striim has launched OJet, the industry’s fastest CDC reader that can read up to several hundred gigabytes of data per hour from Oracle databases (up to version 21c).  For enterprises that run large operational workloads using Azure Cosmos DB, Striim introduces two new CDC adapters to read data using the SQL API or the MongoDB API to support analytics and streaming use cases

Smart application rebalance for optimal resource management and scale:  Customers today deploy Striim Platform on multiple clusters that span a large number of nodes to stream trillions of events daily. Striim 4.1 maximizes operational uptime by enabling customers to track the compute and memory resources consumed by their data pipelines, easily rebalance pipelines to servers with spare capacity, and quickly free up unused memory and make it available to other data pipelines. 

End-to-end real-time big-data analytics: With Striim Platform 4.1, customers can operationalize their big-data architectures with real-time data pipelines that can read data stored in Parquet format on sources such as Amazon S3 and Hadoop File Systems and write to targets such as Databricks Delta Lake, Snowflake, Azure Synapse, Google BigQuery, and Amazon Redshift. Striim’s smart data pipelines automatically transform data to match the format on the target side, thus reducing customers’ setup and maintenance burden. 

Real-time collaboration and workflow automation: Customers can configure Striim to send alerts and notifications to their Slack channels so that developers and database administrators can monitor and react to their data pipelines in real-time. Additionally, customers can build on Slack’s integrations with enterprise tools such as ServiceNow or PagerDuty to automatically create IT tickets based on the incoming alert message. 

Striim Platform 4.1 is available today. Interested CIOs, CDOs, and data engineers can find out more about the latest features here at our LinkedIn Live event on June 7.

Real-Time Data Integration and Streaming Leader Introduces Striim Cloud on Google Cloud

Striim Cloud delivers a new managed service offering real-time data streaming and integration in a unified cloud solution for Google Cloud enterprise customers to power next-generation business intelligence and analytics

PALO ALTO, May 17, 2022Striim, Inc., today announced the availability of Striim Cloud on Google Cloud, the fastest way for customers to deliver real-time data and insights to power business intelligence and decision-making to meet the needs of the digital economy. Striim Cloud is the industry’s first and only fully-managed software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform for real-time data streaming and integration. With a few clicks, customers can easily build real-time data pipelines to stream trillions of events every day, backed by enterprise-grade operational, security, and management features. Striim Cloud’s zero-maintenance, infinitely scalable platform enables customers to transform their businesses by adopting new cloud models, digitizing legacy systems, and modernizing their application infrastructure. Combined with Google Cloud’s unified data and AI models, enterprises will have the abilities and technologies needed to leverage their data to improve their business.

“Organizations that are digitally transforming their businesses are increasingly seeking out solutions that enable real-time data analysis and action within their key business operations,” said Sudhir Hasbe, Sr. Director, Product Management, Google Cloud. “With Striim Cloud now available on Google Cloud, customers will have greater access to the technologies that will help them harness the power of their data to make business decisions in real time.”

With recent shifts in the global economy that resulted in a more distributed workforce, operations across myriad industries (retail, manufacturing, logistics/supply chain, healthcare) have been forced to become more responsive and reliable. These shifts create immense demand for access to real-time, streaming data. With real-time data, operations leaders can use analytics to assess both demand and cost-to-serve, and make informed decisions.

Legacy ETL solutions were not designed for new modern, agile business needs. The common “batch” model of data integration cannot support real-time applications related to a modern customer experience, business intelligence, decision-making, real-time operations, and more. Streaming data and analytics, by comparison, inform customer strategies and tactics across the entire organization, but to be effective, customers need real-time systems to ingest, process, query, and analyze data to deliver insights and to enable decisions in real-time. Striim Cloud on Google Cloud delivers these capabilities for the enterprise.

“Real-time decision making is quickly becoming ‘table stakes’ for any business that expects to compete effectively across a multitude of industries,” said Phillip Cockrell, senior vice president of business development, Striim Inc. “Striim Cloud is a powerful, cloud-based, SaaS platform that gives enterprise customers an invaluable advantage in reaching this goal. We’re thrilled to make Striim Cloud’s capabilities available to Google Cloud customers worldwide.“

Striim Cloud on Google Cloud delivers the real-time autonomous data pipelines that enable enterprises of all sizes, from FORTUNE 50 giants to startups, to seamlessly evolve their legacy application architectures to modern, cloud-native architectures with minimum disruption. The platform uses change data capture (CDC) to detect source database changes, removing the impact on other operations and maintaining the most up-to-date data possible. Customers can continuously query, enrich and run analysis on a live data stream in-transit rather than query the data after it has reached the target database or data warehouse, making it possible to build applications on the pipeline and expand data capabilities without impacting performance.

Striim Cloud on Google Cloud delivers multiple capabilities for digital transformation to the enterprise:

  • Striim Cloud delivers instant access to what’s happening right now across multiple applications: With real-time streaming data, IT can instantly know what’s happening from customer behavior, to marketing campaigns, to supply-chain operations, and more. Striim Cloud’s real-time streaming model is inherently superior to legacy ETL batch methods.

 

  • Striim Cloud delivers the simplicity, elasticity, and scalability of the cloud:  Customers have a unified view of all data pipelines. They can add new pipelines or modify existing pipelines, while Striim does the heavy-lifting in the background to support them. Striim Cloud supports cloud-native services and integrations. This foundation enables enterprises to adapt to changing market requirements at will.

 

  • Striim Cloud super-charges enterprise innovation: Building applications based on real-time data gives enterprises a competitive edge. Striim Cloud makes it easy to innovate on applications leveraging data for new uses.

Striim Cloud seamlessly integrates data into a customer’s cloud platform of choice. By doing so, Striim Cloud enables Google Cloud customers to power business intelligence and decision-making to meet the needs of the digital economy while delivering an unbeatable, data-driven customer experience.

Striim Cloud on Google Cloud is available today. Interested CIOs, CDOs, and data engineers can learn more on our website at https://striim.com/striim-cloud.

Real-Time Data Streaming Leader Striim Achieves Google Cloud Ready – BigQuery Designation

PALO ALTO, April 6, 2022Striim, Inc., today announced that the company’s award-winning real-time data integration and streaming solutions Striim Platform and Striim Cloud, have successfully achieved the Google Cloud Ready – BigQuery Designation.

Google Cloud Ready – BigQuery is a partner integration validation program that intends to increase confidence in partner solution integrations into BigQuery. Google Cloud engineering teams conduct the validation in a three-phase process. They run a series of data integration tests, compare results against benchmarks, work closely with partners to fill gaps, and refine documentation for our mutual customers.

“The ability to process and analyze data in real-time has never been more important as businesses across retail, financial services, healthcare, and others undertake digital transformations,” said Manvinder Singh, director, Partnerships at Google Cloud. “Recognizing Striim’s capabilities as Google Cloud Ready – BigQuery is validation that their integrations and support for BigQuery deliver exceptional experiences and value for customers, ultimately helping them log and analyze streaming data at faster speeds.”

By earning this designation, Striim has proven its solutions meet a core set of functional and interoperability requirements when integrating with BigQuery. This designation gives existing customers confidence that their Striim products work well with BigQuery and saves prospective customers evaluation time.

“We’re grateful to Google Cloud for validating our solutions with BigQuery,” said Alok Pareek, executive vice president, Products at Striim, Inc. “As a customer-first organization, our customers must know they can integrate Striim solutions with confidence across a market-leading service like Google Cloud.“

With recent shifts in the global economy and an increasingly distributed workforce, operations must become more responsive and reliable. These shifts create immense demand for real-time data, particularly for predictive analytics. With real-time data, companies can more accurately predict future outcomes and discover new business opportunities. Additionally, the customer experience must be personalized and differentiated to be relevant and competitive in today’s digital economy.

Legacy ETL solutions were not designed for modern, agile business needs. The common “batch” model of data integration cannot support real-time applications related to a modern customer experience, such as predictive analytics, business intelligence, decision-making, and real-time operations. Data and analytics inform customer strategies and tactics across the entire organization, but to be effective, customers need real-time systems to ingest, process, query, and analyze data to deliver insights and enable decisions in real-time.

Striim Cloud and Striim Platform are the only solutions that deliver the real-time autonomous data pipelines that enable enterprises of all sizes, from FORTUNE 50 giants to startups, to seamlessly evolve their legacy application architectures to modern, cloud-native architectures with minimum disruption. Striim solutions use change data capture (CDC) to detect source database changes, removing the impact on other operations and maintaining the most up-to-date data possible. Customers can continuously query, enrich and run analysis on a live data stream in transit rather than query the data after it has reached the target database or data warehouse, making it possible to build applications on the pipeline and expand data capabilities without impacting performance.

As part of the Google Cloud Ready – BigQuery Designation program, Striim, Inc. will be able to collaborate more closely with Google partner engineering and BigQuery teams to develop joint roadmaps. By doing so, our mutual customers can be assured that the combined solution of BigQuery and Striim solutions deliver the best possible outcomes for their respective businesses.

Striim’s solutions are available today. Interested CIOs, CDOs, and data engineers can find out more here https://www.striim.com/.

Striim Announces General Availability of Version 4.0 of its Streaming Platform

New release focuses on secure, automated multi cloud data pipelines to stream mission critical business events in real time

 

PALO ALTO, Calif.Dec. 8, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Today, Striim, Inc. announced the availability of Striim 4.0, the next generation of its industry-leading data integration and streaming platform. Striim 4.0 introduces new features and enhances existing capabilities for customers to run hundreds of data pipelines on auto-pilot and infuse real-time data into their business processes. Customers can choose from over 100 built-in adapters to read from and write to a data store, storage system, or cloud, and in the format of their choice.  They can efficiently manage their pipelines using Striim’s visual, no-code user interface, SQL-based CLI (command line interface), and REST APIs (application programming interfaces). Striim 4.0 maximises operational uptime with data observability and automatic responses to changes in data structures and formats in upstream applications. To get started with Striim 4.0, visit https://www.striim.com/.

“By 2022”, IDC forecasts “over 90% of enterprises worldwide will be relying on a mix of on-premises/dedicated private clouds, multiple public clouds, and legacy platforms to meet their infrastructure needs”. Enterprises must tackle the technical and cost challenges of integrating data across distributed environments because, according to McKinsey, “market demands are pushing organizations to handle even more extensive data sets and to achieve even faster query and analytics responses.”

Striim enables customers to overcome the barriers between disparate platforms with unified real-time data integration and SQL-driven data streaming so they can extract more value from their data to improve products and make better business decisions.  Striim can elastically scale to handle mass data volumes and act as an autonomous data pipeline to create insights in real-time.

Striim 4.0 expands on its mission with key features such as:

Enhanced user interface for operations at scale: Striim customers commonly operate hundreds of data pipelines with granular controls around access and governance. Customers can search, sort, filter and group users, roles, permissions, and data pipelines for easier management and compliance.

Schema evolution to automate common DDL (Data Definition Language) changes: Striim 4.0 eliminates integration downtime by detecting schema changes on  source databases, and instantly and automatically replicating the changes to target systems with customer-defined guardrails to prevent unwanted schema changes.

Notification panel for lifecycle events and Historical end-to-end latency metrics:  Customers can be confident in the fidelity and freshness of the data feeding their analytics and operational workflows. They can now easily monitor lifecycle events, such as the detection and propagation of a new table, and track the current and historical replication latencies across all their data pipelines.

Vault for customer secrets: Striim 4.0 augments customers’ security posture by storing their tokens, passwords, certificates, and encryption keys in Striim’s built-in Vault or in external vaults, such as HashiCorp Vault.

New connectors and optimizations for existing connectors: Striim 4.0 includes new adapters to read from and write to additional data platforms and formats, and enhances the performance of existing adapters to enable customers to modernize without sunsetting proven legacy systems.  Striim’s new adapter support includes change data capture (CDC) from PostgreSQL on public clouds such as Azure and Google Cloud, reading and transforming Cobol copybook, and reading very large transactions using the PostgreSQL CDC adapter.

“Striim’s unified data integration and streaming platform enables modernization and digital transformation by connecting enterprise systems in a modern cloud architecture with fully automated real-time data pipelines,” said Alok Pareek, Executive Vice President of Engineering and Products at Striim. “Fresh data is essential for enterprises to make the right business decisions at the right time, and the Striim platform enables them to integrate, analyze and transform their data in-flight. This speed gives them a clear and distinct competitive advantage.”

Ciena is a networking systems, services and software company that provides best-in-class networking solutions that support 85% of the world’s largest communications service providers, as well as regional service providers, submarine network operators, data and cloud operators, and large enterprises. Ciena uses Striim to move massive volumes of data – between 40-90 million business events a day – into the cloud-based architecture that powers their sales, manufacturing, accounting, and dozens of other crucial business functions. Ciena’s data customers no longer have to wonder when they’ll be able to see their data because it appears immediately after changes occurred in the source platforms.

“The power of the cloud is amazing,” says Rajesh Raju, Director of Data Engineering at Ciena, “but it’s really all about speed. Because of Striim, we have so much customer and operational data at our fingertips. We can build all kinds of solutions without worrying about how we’ll provide them with timely data.”

Striim Expands Cloud Support, Bolsters Manageability and Diagnostics, and Introduces New Ease of Use Features to Speed Customers’ Cloud Adoption

Striim Version 3.10.1 Includes Expanded Support for Cloud Targets, Including Snowflake Partner Connect, and
Google BigQuery Streaming API, Now Includes Schema Conversion and End-To-End Lag Monitoring,
and Simplifies Working with Complex Data

PALO ALTO, CA – July 10, 2020 – Striim, provider of an enterprise-grade platform for streaming cloud migration and cloud integration solutions, has introduced a broad set of enhancements to its on-premise and cloud marketplace offerings that adds additional cloud targets, provides more detailed visibility into on-going data movement, further enhances ease-of-use, and ensures on-going support for major enterprise data sources.

Key Features released in Striim 3.10.1 are directly available through Snowflake Partner Connect to enable rapid movement of enterprise data into Snowflake. Striim 3.10.1. also introduces support for the Google BigQuery Streaming API, optimizes integrating real-time change data into Snowflake and Azure Synapse, and adds support for Parquet in Cloud Data-Lake solutions.

“In today’s challenging business environment, cloud adoption initiatives have become the number one priority for many organizations looking to optimize their operations, enhance their customers’ online experience, and gain the real-time insights required for digital transformations,” said Alok Pareek, founder and EVP of Products at Striim. “With this release, Striim further simplifies this process through our dedicated support for technologies required by customers undertaking online cloud migrations and investing in cloud analytics.”

Striim on Snowflake Partner Connect

From Snowflake Partner Connect, customers can launch a trial Striim Cloud instance directly as part of the Snowflake on-boarding process from the Snowflake UI and load data, optionally with change data capture, directly into Snowflake from any of our supported sources.

Expanded Support for Cloud Targets to Further Enhance Cloud Adoptions

The Striim platform has been chosen as a standard for our customers’ cloud adoption use-cases partly because of the wide range of cloud targets it supports. Striim provides integration with databases, data warehouses, storage, messaging systems and other technologies across all three major cloud environments. To further enhance this key capability, the following features have been added in the 3.10.1 release:

  • Support for the Google BigQuery Streaming API, enabling real-time analytics in BigQuery on large scale data within seconds, as well as helping with quota issues than can be faced by high volume customers
  • Optimized delivery to Snowflake and Azure Synapse that facilitates compacting multiple operations on the same data to a single operation on the target resulting in much lower change volume
  • Delivery to MongoDB cloud and Mongo DB API for Azure Cosmos DB
  • Delivery to Apache Cassandra, DataStax Cassandra, and Cassandra API for Azure Cosmos DB
  • Support for delivery of data in Parquet format to Cloud Storage and Cloud Data Lakes to further support cloud analytics environments

Schema Conversion to Simplify Cloud Adoption Workflows

As part of many cloud migration or cloud integration use-cases, especially during the initial phases, developers often need to create target schemas to match those of source data. Striim adds the capability to use source schema information from popular databases such as Oracle, SQL Server, and PostgreSQL and create appropriate target schema in cloud targets such as Google BigQuery, Snowflake and others. Importantly, these conversions understand datatype and structure differences between heterogeneous sources and targets and act intelligently to spot problems and inconsistencies before progressing to data movement.

Enhanced Monitoring, Alerting and Diagnostics

On-going data movement between on-premise and cloud environments for migrations, or powering reporting and analytics solutions, are often part of an enterprise’s critical applications. As such they demand deep insights into the status of all active data flows. Striim 3.10.1 adds the capability to inherently monitor data from its creation in the source to successful delivery in a target, generate detailed lag reports, and alert on situations where lag is outside of SLAs. In addition, this release provides detailed status on checkpointing information for recovery and high availability scenarios, with insight into checkpointing history and currency.

Simplifies Working with Complex Data

As customers work with heterogeneous environments and adopt more complex integration scenarios, they often have to work with complex data types, or perform necessary data conversions. While always possible through user defined functions, this release adds multiple commonly requested data manipulation functions out of the box. This simplifies working with JSON data and document structures, while also facilitating data cleansing, and regular expression operations.

On-Going Support for Enterprise Sources

As customers upgrade their environments, or adopt new technologies, it is essential that their integration platform keeps pace. In Striim 3.10.1 we extend our support for the Oracle database to include Oracle 19c, including change data capture, add support for schema information and metadata for Oracle GoldenGate trails, and certify our support for Hive 3.1.0
