Sigma Computing Launches Enhanced Input Tables, Enabling Users to Write Directly to the Cloud Data Warehouse

Businesswire | April 18, 2023

Sigma Computing (“Sigma”), the fast, easy-to-use, and powerful alternative to traditional business intelligence (BI), has announced the launch of Input Tables, a first-of-its-kind feature that allows Sigma users to add data directly to the warehouse. With Input Tables, technical and business users can build scenarios, augment existing models, and comment and collaborate at cloud scale. Input Tables enables enterprises to migrate all of their analytics and data-driven work to the cloud, eliminating the legacy risks and constraints created by data extracts to spreadsheets. Sigma remains the only product designed for cloud data warehouses to enable users to freely analyze that data by using a familiar spreadsheet-like interface. With Input Tables, users can now build live scenario models by copying data from their stale, local spreadsheets and turning them into first-class data tables. They can also comment directly into tables, adding a human perspective to data sourced from applications. What that means is a whole new level of predictive analysis is possible. We’re no longer using data only to look at the past, but the real-time present as well as the future. “Sigma is again first to market with features that bring more users to the cloud data warehouse. With Input Tables, enterprises can expect business and technical users alike to migrate offline workflows to the cloud, ensuring better scale, better collaboration, better governance and, most critically, better decisions based on live data,” said Mike Palmer, CEO of Sigma Computing. “Input Tables enable all users to retain the speed and flexibility of their local applications with the scale, diversity, and security of the cloud. Leaders can expect transparency, speed and accuracy as business processes and decisions move online.” Sigma Input Tables helps organizations overcome the data-to-warehouse barrier by enabling users to bring data directly to the warehouse without the need to write code or use additional technical resources. Input Tables create Sigma-managed tables within a user’s cloud data warehouse directly from typed user inputs, referenced drop downs, or large copy-and-pasted data. Some additional benefits of Sigma Input Tables include: The Power of the Cloud: Input Tables allow companies to perform analysis live against the warehouse, without going through the loop of exporting data and performing that analysis in spreadsheets. This effectively allows companies to see exactly when something isn't going as planned so that the correct decision can be made. No downtime or waiting for requests. A Familiar UI: Anyone who has entered data into—or copy-and-pasted from—a spreadsheet or across spreadsheets can instantly use and understand Input Tables. Entire teams can access and perform analysis simultaneously, reducing the need for data teams to be a bottleneck. Scales With the Business: With all the security and audit controls to meet requirements of the largest enterprises, users can avoid having to find new software or applications to support growing demands as their business scales; Sigma provides the ability to unlock access to new data sources that change and update frequently. “Sigma’s Input Tables have been a turning point for Strategus, giving our users the power to incorporate their data by bridging the gap between information and analysis,” said Mark Sussman, Director of Data and Analytics at Strategus. “With everything else in the marketplace, analysis is the endpoint; in Sigma, analysis is the starting point.” To learn more about Sigma and the new Input Tables feature, visit sigmacomputing.com. About Sigma Computing Sigma is a cloud-native analytics platform that uses a familiar spreadsheet interface to give business users instant access to explore and get insights from their cloud data warehouse. It requires no code or special training to explore billions of rows, augment with new data, or perform “what if” analysis on data in real time.

StreamSets Platform Now Supports Oracle Data Guard for CDC Ingestion

StreamSets Inc. | March 08, 2023

On March 7, 2023, StreamSets, a subsidiary of Software AG, announced that it now supports the processing of change data capture (CDC) information from Oracle Data Guard deployments. This support for an additional data source offers a reliable and efficient way of developing data integration pipelines using CDC for production databases. CDC captures and propagates database changes in near real-time, which reduces the time required to make new data available for analysis. This functionality is critical for rapidly updated data or replication scenarios with minimal latency. StreamSets enables data engineers to capture CDC information from Oracle Data Guard, efficiently replicating and synchronizing data to cloud destinations, such as AWS or Snowflake, for analytics and reporting. Oracle Data Guard is also used as a disaster recovery solution, allowing data engineers to maintain a standby database in sync with the primary database in the event of primary database failure, which reduces the risk of data loss and recovery time, particularly for critical business systems. StreamSets users can leverage this new capability to replicate and synchronize data efficiently, ensuring high availability in the event of failures, a crucial consideration when constructing CDC pipelines for production databases. In addition, these pipelines can be utilized with modern data platforms such as Snowflake, allowing for streamlined reporting and enabling data-driven decision-making. StreamSets COO Products Dima Spivak commented, "Keeping up with the fast-paced demands of today's data-driven world requires real agility." He further emphasized, "Organizations must be able to access, replicate, and synchronize their data securely and efficiently. This latest enhancement to our platform makes that easier than ever before." (Source – PR Web) About StreamSets StreamSets, a subsidiary of Software AG, simplifies data integration in hybrid and multi-cloud environments to meet the growing demand for business data. The platform enables data teams to access data while retaining control, empowering enterprises to make data-driven decisions. StreamSets delivers reliable and repeatable pipelines that provide analytics-ready data for faster real-time decision-making while also reducing the costs and risks associated with data flow within an organization. The platform has gained the trust of the world's largest companies, powering millions of data pipelines for modern analytics, smart applications, AI/ML and hybrid integration.
