Innovation Initiatives

Pervasive Big Data Products and Solutions delivers an array of offerings powered by Pervasive DataRush™, a software development platform that lets you rapidly build parallel applications that deliver high throughput on big data.  Pervasive DataRush fully leverages the parallel processing capabilities of multicore processors to deliver unmatched performance on a multicore server, SMP machine, cluster or Hadoop cluster.  Pervasive DataRush offers a cost-effective, scalable approach to meeting the challenges of big data and for accelerating Apache Hadoop and Hive performance. 

Pervasive TurboRush™ for Hive accelerates Hive by using the Pervasive DataRush dataflow engine on the back end, providing faster execution of Hive programs without needing to modify any code, providing the power of Pervasive DataRush parallelism to the full spectrum of SQL and Hive developers.  Mike Hoskins, Pervasive CTO and General Manager, Big Data Products and Solutions, notes that Pervasive is focused on “building out end-to-end, data-intensive solutions with a special focus on bringing highly scalable analytics into the Hadoop ecosystem by combining Pervasive DataRush with other tooling like KNIME and Pervasive Data Integrator.” 

What People Say About Pervasive DataRush

“Pervasive DataRush fully exploits the parallelism achieved with scalable servers based on the Intel® Xeon® Processor 7500 series.

Eoin McConnell, Product Line Manager, Intel Xeon Expandable Segment

“On the plus side for Pervasive DataRush, in addition to applications like data preparation that fit Pervasive’s strengths in data integration, there are some advantages to being ‘different’ instead of only being ‘better’… Taking a ‘different’ approach – as well as delivering as good or better performance and features – can offer more opportunities for long-term differentiation than trying to always stay one step ahead as competitors on the same or similar path.”
Brett Sheppard, Founding Editor, Big Data News
