Pivotal pivots core components of open source Big data processing

Pivotal today announced that it will open up three core components of its big data suite, while the commercial version continues to offer more advanced features and business support services.

These three open source components are:

• GemFire in-memory NoSQL database

• HAWQ massively parallel SQL analysis processing engine

• Greenplum DB massively parallel Processing Analysis database

Pivotal Open Source is the main reason for the three core components is its successful Cloud Foundry open source case.

Managers and vice presidents from the Pivotal data product group said: "In Cloud Foundry we have a lot of successful examples and the ability to be profitable." The company believes it can do the same in big data.

Pivotal is a joint venture of General Electric, EMC and VMware, but operates independently of three companies. This allows Pivotal to operate with greater flexibility, including the use of open source to operate the software.

Pivotal also announced that it has joined Open Data Platform, an organization that currently has 14 companies, including Hortonworks, GE, IBM, Verizon, and so on, which is primarily offering the Enterprise edition of Hadoop.
