SAN MATEO, Calif., March 22 /PRNewswire/ -- Data is growing exponentially everywhere – in business, web, finance, government, science, and in the world of sensors and smart grids.
Speaking last week at OSBC, Tim O'Reilly said "The future will be all about who has most data, and who is able to extract meaning from it and deliver it in real time." Every organization needs to become as expert at exploiting "Big Data" as Google or Facebook.
So how are these organizations going to get in the game? How can the ordinary business professional handle explosively growing data volumes?
Excel is the world's #1 tool for analyzing data. Over 100 million Excel users analyze data constantly with it, and they love it – no databases, no programming, no IT department to deal with. But for today's Big Data, Excel is nowhere near enough. And a lot of that Big Data is now realtime streams, so databases, data warehouses, and programming tools like MapReduce/Hadoop are of no use either.
Today at DEMO, Cloudscale Inc. is launching Cloudcel – the world's first realtime, massively parallel cloud platform for handling Big Data. Cloudcel can be used by anyone who can use a spreadsheet, but is as scalable and powerful as any analytics tool on the planet.
Cloudcel is the first product that demonstrates the full power of integrated "Client-plus-Cloud" computing. You use desktop Excel in the normal way, but can also now seamlessly tap into the scalability and massive parallelism of the cloud, entirely from within Excel, to handle your Big Data.
Building an app in Cloudcel is really easy – no databases, no programming. Simply drop building blocks onto the spreadsheet (in any order, in any location) and launch the app to the cloud with a single click. Parallelism, scalability and fault tolerance are automatic.
With Cloudcel, you can process realtime data streams continuously, and get alerts pushed to you as soon as important events or patterns are detected ("Set it and forget it").
Cloudcel is offered as a pay-per-use cloud service – so no hardware, no software licenses, and no IT department required to set it up. Private cloud deployments are also available.
