Teradata acquires Revelytix and Hadapt

Teradata the big data enterprise has announced two acquisitions that will accelerate its growth.

Revelytix that deals with information management products for big data with unique metadata management technology and deep expertise in integrating information across the enterprise was acquired by Teardata. Hadapt's acquisition includes experienced big data technologists and intellectual property.

"We welcome Revelytix and Hadapt employees to Teradata and we look forward to their contributions in helping Teradata Labs accelerate delivery of big data solutions for our customers. The addition of the key assets of these companies underscores Teradata's commitment to continued innovation and customer value, extends our big data portfolio, and enhances the Teradata Unified Data Architecture," said Scott Gnau, president, Teradata Labs.

The Revelytix acquisition brings to Teradata new data management and data preparation tools in Hadoop, as it delivers integrated metadata, lineage, and data wrangling all in a single software solution. Data governance and understanding metadata in Hadoop is one of the biggest challenges and impediments to success with Hadoop today. The Revelytix team joining Teradata has a deep history in metadata management solutions. From Hadapt, Teradata has gained an experienced engineering team with deep big data knowledge that will be leveraged to enhance and move forward the Teradata Unified Data Architecture.

After acquisitions Teradata labs organizationally will include the people and intellectual property acquired in these transactions.
