DBTA 100 2018: 10 Data Integration Vendors We're Tracking

Database Trends and Applications recently released its sixth annual DBTA 100, a listing of solution providers that are “addressing the evolving demands for hardware, software, and services.” Some of the vendors are industry veterans while others are fresh on the scene. New in this year’s issue is a “View From The Top” which features articles written by executives who are addressing the day’s big data challenges in a forward-thinking manner. Readers can also review original research in the Unisphere Research library here.

Data and analytics leaders are being pulled in every direction. The influence of streaming data, the Internet of Things, data lakes, the increasing importance of data analytics, and the dominance of cloud computing are all playing a major role. As the report prominently notes, data is getting bigger and faster all the time, and organizations are being browbeaten by the ever-present factor of regulatory compliance.

At Solutions Review, we track those data integration providers that have the biggest impact on the marketplace. As such, we’ve read through DBTA’s complete 100-vendor list and segmented the 10 vendors we’re following on a daily basis. For an even deeper breakdown of the top data integration solutions, consult our Buyer’s Guide for Data Integration Tools.
