Huawei's FusionInsight Claims Top Spot in IDC MarketScape Big Data Vendor Assessment in China

[Beijing, China, October 12, 2017] In the latest IDC MarketScape: China Big Data Management Platform 2017 Vendor Assessment, Huawei's FusionInsight platform ranked first among all Big Data platform vendors in China. IDC assessed vendors according to three criteria: current capabilities, future strategy, and market performance, and FusionInsight excelled in all three due to its use of leading technologies, its mature ecological layout, and its outstanding market performance.

According to IDC, China's Big Data market has shifted its focus towards implementing data applications, and building unified Big Data platforms is a precondition for this transition. IDC surveyed roughly 20 solution providers, 20 end users, and 10 major Big Data platform vendors for this assessment. Their final report evaluated vendors based on their current capabilities as well as their strategies for the future, to provide a point of reference to assist customers in product selection.

FusionInsight is a Big Data storage, query, and analysis platform of Huawei, targeted at customers in various industries. Incorporating over 350 patents, FusionInsight includes many leading and proprietary technologies, such as full SQL compatibility; CarbonData, an interactive query technology; RTD, a real-time decision-making engine; and EYWA, a graph computing engine. The FusionInsight platform supports the migration of traditional enterprise data, integrated data querying, real-time decision-making, rapid multi-layer data analysis, and massive structured data analysis. It can help enterprises maximize the value of their data and hasten their digital transformation.
