The Denodo Platform for Google Cloud Platform

With Google Cloud Platform users have a variety of fully managed relational, NoSQL, and in-memory databases. Additionally, departmental projects adopt SaaS applications at an ever-increasing pace, and organizations still need to maintain on-premises systems that are vital to business operations. In a hybrid/multi-cloud environment, the need for data integration has never been greater. The Denodo Platform offers a single logical point from which to seamlessly query and combine data in real time, using any business intelligence (BI) or reporting tool, regardless of where the source data is stored.

Business intelligence (BI) and data analytics are front and center for every successful company. However, many users need help finding and accessing the data they need, so they rely on IT staff. The Denodo Platform’s data catalog bridges the gap between the technical data infrastructure and business users. It provides search and collaboration capabilities and data exploration wizards. It’s the perfect companion for the virtual layer, to empower self-service initiatives with the capabilities for minimal IT intervention. It gives business users the tools to generate their insights with proper security, governance, and guardrails.

The distributed nature of data today means that data is stored in various systems, on-premises, in the cloud, and in hybrid deployments. This adds complexity for data consumers, as access methods and data formats vary greatly. The Denodo Platform for Google Cloud Platform can expose data services that simplify access to various data sources through a unified set of access methods. These methods include JDBC/ODBC (SQL), OData, RESTful, GraphQL, and GeoJSON. For developers building applications that need access to data, they now have a standard interface to quality data, in a standard format, regardless of where that data may reside.
