Okera Introduces Intelligent Schema Management for Amazon S3 Data Lakes

LAS VEGAS, Nov. 27, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- AWS re:Invent 2018 -- Okera, the leading active data management company for data lake security and governance, today unveiled its new intelligent schema management. Designed to support multiple analysis tools running on Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) data lakes, this new capability can simplify how data consumers can find and access data from popular big data analytic tools, such as Amazon EMR, Hive, Presto, Spark, and leading BI tools from Tableau, Birst, and Qlik.

"Data analysts can only move as fast and efficiently as they can find and access the data they need to do their work," said Amandeep Khurana, Okera CEO and co-founder. "With Okera's new intelligent schema management, consumers of data from Amazon S3 data lakes can use the analytic tools they want on the data they need faster than ever before."

Okera helps enterprises do more with their data without compromising on governance, compliance, or security by delivering unified schemas, access control, and governance for Amazon S3 data lakes. Okera's Active Data Access Platform (ODAP) provides industry-leading, dynamic access control capabilities such as real-time tokenization, redaction, and row-level filtering required by emerging regulations such as GDPR and CCPA uniformly across all analytic tools, including Python, MapReduce, Spark, Hive, and Presto.

The latest release of ODAP includes a new intelligent schema management capability that allows data administrators to automatically discover new data sets, infer their schema, and assign universal access permissions for all analytic tools using ODAP's fine-grained access control. This latest release also includes a new file system feature that streamlines the discovery, access, governance, and use of unstructured data in Amazon S3 data lakes.

Okera will be showcasing ODAP's new capabilities for Amazon S3 data lakes at AWS re:Invent 2018, November 26-30 in Las Vegas at booth #138.
