April 2019 - Predictive Analytics

Santa Clara, CA, April 2019 - We are excited to announce our new offering: Predictive Analytics as a managed service. As we know, the amount of data collected by business and government organizations are literally growing exponentially. But most of  this data maybe in silos or not being put to good use. It is our mission is to help customers to understand and utilize their data to gain a competitive advantage by moving beyond traditional BI tools and Excel to harness actionable predictive insights in a cost effective and timely manner — WITHOUT the need for teams of data scientists and IT resources.

We work on defining the use cases and collect sample data for preparing and building the predictive models utilizing Machine Learning, and Artificial Intelligence technologies powered by Microsoft Azure ML, Cloud platforms Python, and R.  The goal is to give customers optimized models that deliver the best predictive insights. The models can be deployed in the Cloud or on premises on production data coming from virtually any data source, including but not limited to, MS SQL server, all popular SQL databases, NOSQL, Hadoop, Cloud applications, web services, Excel files, and CSV files.

When the models are deployed, customers will be able to get alerts, reports, dashboards and various visual analytics on the data collected continuously in real-time, by the hour, daily, weekly, monthly or on demand.  We are on hand every step of the way to monitor the model performance and make sure customers get the results that they desire. The process does not end with model deployment. Because characteristic of data may change over time, our team will periodically review the models, analyze new data and come up with refined parameters or models when necessary so that customers get the best actionable results with our bespoke service that meets their requirements and budget.

February 2018 - Linux container support

Santa Clara, CA, February 2018 - We are excited to announce the support of Linux container. Currently the container images supported are for EspressReport ES (ERES) running on Redhat and Ubuntu.

A Linux container is a set of processes that runs from a distinct image that includes all necessary files such as code, libraries, environment variables, and configuration files. It runs completely isolated from the host environment by default, and only accesses host files and ports if configured to do so. By providing an image that contains all of an application’s dependencies, it is portable and consistent as it moves from development, to testing, and finally to production

Docker, an open source technology, is currently the most well-known project and method for deploying and managing Linux containers.
ERES 7.0 is a certified Docker Container in RedHat Connect. With Docker installed, the container is available with the following command on the Linux system.

docker pull registry.connect.redhat.com/eres/v70

The ERES 7.0 Ubuntu based image is published in Docker Hub. To retrieve the container image, use the following command.

docker pull quadbase/eres

October 5, 2015 - Quadbase Supports Hadoop Data Source

We are very pleased to announce the support for the popular Big Data platform, Hadoop, Hive and Spark. You can now use Quadbase’s Espress family products to visualize, report and analyze virtually unlimited volume of data with ease and high performance and superb scalability.

Apache Hadoop is an open-source software framework that enables the distributed processing of large data sets across clusters of commodity servers. It provides massive storage for any kind of data, enormous processing power and the ability to handle virtually limitless concurrent tasks or jobs, with a very high degree of fault tolerance and readily scales up to thousands of server. Running in conjunction with Hive and Spark, the user can use standard SQL syntax to retrieve data. With Spark’s in memory algorithm, performance can be up to 100 times faster than Hadoop’s two-stage disk-based MapReduce approach.

It is easy to setup connections to Hadoop data source. Configuration including Hive and Spark is required. A JDBC drive that supports this configuration is bundled with the products. Choose Hadoop data source in the data registry and specify the driver and URL with the following format:

JDBC Driver class name: com.cloudera.hive.jdbc4.HS2Driver
URL format: jdbc:hive2://:/

Once this is set up, the user will be able to make queries and build reports/charts, dashboards seamlessly in the same way as using any supported database sources.

A dashboard example accessing data from Hadoop is here.
