Strong partner ecosystem helps Denodo grow in Greater China

Beijing, March 10, 2021 - Denodo, a leader in data virtualization, today announced that its business in Greater China is booming as its partner ecosystem continues to grow. As data virtualization technology becomes a key component of enterprise digital transformation, advanced analytics, and hybrid cloud/multi-cloud solutions, partner interest has surged. Wu Shaoyi, General Manager of Denodo Greater China, leads Denodo's Greater China team. He has more than 25 years of industry experience and has previously held leadership positions at large enterprise software vendors such as Informatica, Oracle, and Microsoft.

"Denodo is the undisputed leader in data virtualization and I am excited to lead the company's Greater China sales team to drive our next phase of growth in the Asia Pacific region," said Shaoyi Wu, General Manager of Denodo Greater China. "I will focus on increasing awareness of the Denodo brand and products and building our presence in key industries such as manufacturing, retail, pharmaceutical and automotive."

Today, companies across industries use cloud or on-premises deployments to integrate enterprise data and create physical data warehouses or data lakes. As enterprises embark on their digital transformation journey, almost every company sees great value in generating data-driven insights in real time for predictive or advanced analytics, but the old physical data warehouses are holding them back. Data virtualization technology not only helps generate insights in real time, but also creates an abstraction layer on top of physical data stores. With this abstraction layer, IT teams can migrate to the cloud and modernize their enterprise architecture without affecting business continuity. In the past year, Denodo has established partnerships with large regional software integrator partners such as Eden Software, Retailsys, IISI and Automatic Systems Group Limited (ASL HK), as well as well-known technology partners such as AWS, Azure and Google Cloud Platform, demonstrating the high enthusiasm of enterprises for digital virtualization.

Sun Junyuan, Vice President of Eden Software, said: "Eden is honored to join the Denodo Partner Program and become Denodo's largest partner in China. We are proud to help our customers carry out high-quality big data analysis projects and create influential business results. It has been proven that for many large enterprises, Denodo's data virtualization technology and logical data structure layer are the key to their successful real-time big data analysis projects. We look forward to establishing a long-term and successful partnership with Denodo to provide more powerful help to our customers."

Recently, Denodo upgraded its products again and released Denodo Platform Version 8, which is designed to help organizations smoothly create enterprise logical data structures (Data Fabric). Through machine learning-based recommendations, intelligent query acceleration, and automated infrastructure management for PaaS support, Denodo further enhanced its data integration and data management capabilities, establishing its leadership position in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Data Integration Tools and the Forrester Enterprise Data Fabric Wave Report.

Wu Shaoyi concluded: "Denodo's vision is to become the industry's leading data virtualization and logical data structure provider, helping enterprises centrally manage scattered data by creating a logical data layer, improving agility and reducing the complexity of system maintenance. With this approach, users can obtain any information from a high-performance single access point, giving them the flexibility to choose their favorite applications to use the information. At the same time, data virtualization also eliminates the need to move or copy data, bringing technical advantages while saving 50% to 60% of data integration costs."

In addition, Denodo products and services are available in mainstream cloud application stores such as AWS, Azure and Google Cloud Platform. Many of Denodo's customers, including some giants in the ASEAN region such as Toyota Astra Motors, also use Denodo products and services to integrate cloud data sources or migrate to the cloud.

Angel Viña, founder and CEO of Denodo, said: "Our goal has always been to transform the way enterprises innovate and run their businesses by unifying their data assets in real time. We achieved great growth in APAC in 2019, with many new customers leveraging Denodo to meet the needs of their changing data environment, which made it clear that we needed to establish a business operation in Greater China to help companies in the region innovate faster and better. 2020 was an extremely difficult year for the whole world, but this also means that in 2021, almost all companies will be looking at using technologies such as data virtualization to seamlessly advance their business development in the post-COVID world."
