Cirata announced the expansion of its partnership with Databricks to deliver professional services aimed at accelerating data migration and modernization in the cloud. With Cirata's new Data Migration as a Service (DMaaS) offering, enterprises can seamlessly migrate and modernize their data, unlocking the full potential of analytics and AI on the Databricks Data Intelligence Platform. 

This partnership extension enables enterprises to leverage Cirata's professional services for transitioning legacy data infrastructures, such as Hadoop, to Databricks. By using DMaaS, Cirata ensures a smooth, efficient migration that not only optimizes cloud environments but also simplifies large-scale data transfers, helping organizations reduce migration timelines and minimize business disruptions.

"We're expanding our partnership with Databricks to deliver essential services to enterprises undertaking cloud modernization," said Paul Scott-Murphy, Chief Technology Officer at Cirata. "With Cirata DMaaS, we're enabling deeper collaboration with Databricks, ensuring companies can migrate to the cloud with confidence, gain improved operational efficiency, and unlock significant value from their data." 

Cirata's DMaaS simplifies the migration of Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) data, Hive metadata, and cloud data sources to modern platforms, automating transfers to Amazon S3, Azure Data Lake Storage Gen 2, Google Cloud Storage, and Oracle Object Store. The offering's rapid deployment and seamless integration reduce migration times to as little as two weeks, ensuring continuity with zero risk of data loss or system disruption. 

The Databricks Data Intelligence Platform combines the benefits of data lakes and data warehouses, empowering organizations to manage data more efficiently, enabling both analytics and AI. With Cirata's DMaaS and professional services, enterprises can rapidly migrate their data to the Databricks platform and modernize their infrastructure to harness the full power of cloud-native data processing.
