Pentaho data integration and analytics technology enables organizations to access, prepare, and analyze all data from any source, in any environment. Pentaho Business Analytics is part of Lumada DataOps Data Integration and Analytics, which provides intelligent data management for digital innovation.

The Open, Embeddable Technology of Pentaho Business Analytics

Supports flexible analytics that both leverage existing data infratstructure and future-proof deployments against tomorrow’s inevitable change (see Figure 1).

By tightly coupling data integration with business analytics, this Pentaho technology brings together IT and business users to ingest, prepare, blend and analyze all data that impacts business results. Its intuitive data integration and preparation capabilities drastically reduce the hand coding required to bring data together for insight. At the same time, Pentaho Business Analytics provides a spectrum of analytics for all user roles, from visual data analysis for business analysts to tailored dashboards for all audiences—from business executives to front line workers. Pentaho software is fast to deploy, easy to use, and purpose-built for the future of analytics.

Data Integration

Organizations face an increasing challenge to manage and extract value from a growing variety and volume of data across their edge-to-cloud infrastructure. With Pentaho Data Integration, organizations can access data from complex and heterogeneous sources and blend it with existing relational data to produce high-quality, ready-to-analyze information— all without writing a line of code. A rich graphical user interface paired with a powerful multithreaded transformation engine offers high-performance ETL (extract, transform and load) capabilities that cover all data integration needs, including big data ingestion and processing.

Pentaho Data Integration Features

  • Intuitive drag-and-drop interface to simplify the creation of analytic data pipelines (see Figure 2).
  • Broad connectivity to virtually any data source, either on premises or in the cloud, including flat files, relational database management systems (RDBMS), APIs and more.
  • Integration with transactional databases, including Oracle, IBM® DB2®, PostgreSQL, MySQL and others.
  • Access to data in enterprise applications, including SAP, Salesforce.com, Google Analytics and more.
  • Rich library of prebuilt components to access, prepare, blend and cleanse data.
  • Direct access to complete analytics, including charts, visualizations and reporting from any step of Pentaho Data Integration.
  • Robust orchestration capabilities to coordinate complex workflows, including scheduling and alerts.
  • Support for advanced analytic model development in R, Python, Scala and Weka that incorporate libraries, such as scikit-learn, Spark MLib, Tensorflow and Keras, into the data flow.
  • Enterprise-grade administration, scalability, load balancing, and security capabilities.
  • Native integration with the Data Catalog, a part of Lumada DataOps.

Big Data

Pentaho technology enables companies to realize business value from large volumes of diverse data by dramatically reducing the time and complexity required to design, develop and deploy big data analytics. Pentaho technology covers the entire big data life cycle, from data extraction and preparation of diverse data, to scalable processing on Spark and Hadoop, leading to end-to-end analytics solutions.

The Leading Solution for Big Data Integration and Analytics

  • Visual design environment for blending multiple big data sources (see Figure 3) and processing data at scale.
  • Integration with leading Hadoop distributions, object stores, NoSQL stores and analytic databases, as well as log file data and JSON/XML formats.
  • Code-free data transformation design that empowers 15 times faster productivity versus hand coding and executes Spark or Hadoop jobs in clusters for high performance.
  • Operationalize with Spark stream and batch job execution, SQL on Spark connectivity, Kafka access and more.
  • Seamlessly switch between execution engines such as Spark and Pentaho software’s native engine to fit data volume, velocity and transformation complexity.
  • Template-based approach to rapidly onboard data sources into Hadoop via metadata injection feature set.
  • Adaptive big data layer that enables smooth portability of transformations across different Hadoop and Spark distributions.
  • Pragmatic solutions to deliver on-demand data marts in a big data environment.

“Using Pentaho, we are now helping clients blend a 360-degree view of all equipment data sources to enable early prediction of potential machinery failure.”
