Leading analyst firm names Solix as a Leader for the third consecutive year.

Santa Clara, CA — June 20, 2016 — Solix Technologies, Inc., the leading provider of Information Lifecycle Management (ILM) solutions for Apache Hadoop, has been positioned as a leader in Gartner’s June 2016 Magic Quadrant for Structured Data Archiving and Application Retirement. Gartner’s Magic Quadrant is held as the industry’s highest source for company differentiation and market analysis based on completeness of vision and ability to execute.

The 2016 report has also placed Solix in the leaders quadrant for the third consecutive year.

The Gartner report further stated:

“By 2018, 80% of structured data archiving vendors will provide integrated support for unstructured content archiving — up from 30% today.”

“User access — Structured data archiving can enable access to “warm” and “cold data,” meaning that use cases range from “nearline” archiving, where the archived data is viewed through the native application GUI — known as active archiving, as well as access to data from retired applications, often through SQL queries, reports and application GUI mockups. Full text search is another capability in many offerings. Increasingly, support for big data analytics, such as Hive, Spark and Pig, are being added to enterprise buying requirements.”

Joydeep Das, COO at KloudData, Inc., a strategic solutions partner to Solix said “Solix is the only vendor today that provides comprehensive Information Lifecycle Management (ILM) solutions for the entire enterprise using big data.”
