Cloudera, the hybrid platform for data, analytics, and AI, has announced two innovative additions to its Cloudera Observability Premium suite, designed to simplify and automate platform administration. These new premium tier features provide a single source of observability across all cloud-based and on-premises data centres, catering to even the most secure enterprises.
With the growing demand for strategic insights from technologies like GenAI and the increasing importance of data privacy and security regulations, full visibility into enterprise data sources and workflows has become crucial. Cloudera’s expanded Cloudera Observability suite empowers enterprises with highly secure networks to operate observability entirely within their data centres or on the public cloud.
New Solutions for Enhanced Observability
Cloudera’s two new solutions in its Cloudera Observability suite include:
- Cloudera Observability Premium On-Premises: This solution allows customers with highly secure networks to run observability entirely within their data centres. It ensures optimal monitoring, troubleshooting, financial governance, data observability, and automated actions, even in air-gapped configurations.
- Cloudera Observability Premium for Public Cloud Data Hub: This extends all the advanced premium capabilities to public cloud users, including real-time monitoring, advanced financial governance, automated actions, and data observability.
With these additions, enterprises can leverage high-value features such as real-time monitoring for Data Hub clusters, jobs, and queries, financial governance with new cost factors and capacity forecasting, workload views, alerts, and automated actions, along with data observability with hot and cold table analysis. These features maximise investment, streamline self-service troubleshooting, and enhance visibility into resource costs and usage.
Supporting Digital Transformation Goals
“Cloudera’s new premium observability offerings provide Middle East organisations with unparalleled insights into their data operations. With real-time monitoring and advanced financial governance, enterprises can optimise performance, reduce costs, and ensure compliance with regional data privacy regulations,” said Ahmad Shakora, Group Vice President of Emerging Markets (META) at Cloudera. “This innovation supports the UAE and KSA’s digital transformation goals, empowering businesses to leverage data-driven strategies for enhanced efficiency and competitive advantage.”
Industry analyst Sanjeev Mohan emphasised the importance of real-time correlations and contextual information for identifying optimisation points and potential bottlenecks. “Implementing advanced observational capabilities is critical for enterprises as they provide real-time system insights that enable proactive issue resolution and enhance security, ultimately leading to more efficient operations and reduced risks. Cloudera’s expanded Observability offering enables enterprises to tackle this head-on by building a new standard for hybrid data observability across on-premises and public clouds.”
Maximising Cost-Efficiency and Performance
This release marks a significant expansion for Cloudera Observability, designed to continuously discover and collect performance telemetry data across applications, services, and infrastructure components running in enterprises’ Cloudera environments.
“There is immense pressure on enterprises today to better manage data resources and efficiently leverage data across the organisation,” said Dipto Chakravarty, Chief Product Officer at Cloudera. “Cloudera Observability helps enterprises maximise cost-efficiency, enhance performance, and unlock intelligent insights. The new premium additions deepen these insights for enterprises and build on our commitment to help customers take back control of their data, analytics, and AI.”
