Enterprise Big Data Start-up IQLECT Set to Disrupt Business Analytics Space, Launch Real-time Analysis on Cloud at VLDB

BANGALORE, September 12, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --

    Real-time data analytics company IQLECT, the enterprise big data startup from
Bangalore, founded by ex-CTO of Jabong.com Sachin Sinha and funded by Exfinity Venture
Partners and slew of investors from the US, has just launched its cloud offering for
real-time data analysis. In June 2016, Gartner in its 2020 predictions has outlined that
by 2017, virtually all new analytic software purchases will begin as a free or low-cost
proof of concept, enabling buyers to try the software before they buy. The IQLECT on cloud
is built on these business fundamentals that enterprise today want to move away from
spending large sums on evaluating big data tools and realising later that these were short
of expectations. In the same report, Gartner says that through 2018, 70% of Hadoop
deployments will fail to meet cost savings and revenue-generation objectives due to skills
and integration challenges.

    IQLECT offers a hardware-software converged platform to provide actionable data
insights in real-time. Real-time insights are the need of the hour for businesses such as
e-commerce, financial services, digital media, targeted marketing, mobility and internet
of things. However, it is difficult to setup such an infrastructure currently since the
available options are either costly or complex, requiring integration of multiple software
components, which makes it necessary to spend months of effort just to get started.

    IQLECT simplifies the overall proposition and offers a fully baked off-the-shelf
software converged platform, either on the cloud or as a converged hardware-software
all-in-a-box platform. The convergence of all necessary software and hardware in one box
enables the users to get up and running in few hours, thus making the proposition highly
scalable, cost-effective and easy to integrate and accelerates the time to market for
enterprises.

    IQLECT's offering on cloud is an end-to-end ready to consume solution using just
screen clicks and can be deployed over a cup of coffee.

    Users can select from a freemium pricing options and click to deploy the entire
infrastructure and software on cloud. IQLECT's simple intuitive dashboard let users:

       
        - define the correlation or other eventing rules for pattern recognition, alerts and
          notification
        - run predictive analysis
        - social Media Analysis e.g., Sentiment analysis of Twitter stream
        - ad Personalisation
        - pixel analysis like Google's analytics platform
        - recommendation engine for an e-commerce store
        - fraud detection in financial services
        - monitoring Internet of Things (IoT) devices
        - data centre analytics and many more

    Users will have the option to try out all of these free of cost before making the
purchase which is a direct cost saving for IT departments of enterprises compared to
resources deployed in selecting other analytic tools in the market. IQLECT competes with
Microsoft, Amazon Kinesis, IBM and a few other open source tools. Looking at the
competition, Sachin Sinha, CEO explained that besides ready-to-be-deployed solution which
makes us among the very few who have this offering today, IQLECT is also a simplified and
a cost-effective solution due to its architecture and propriety technology.

    Real-time data analysis is poised to disrupt decision making in organizations- big or
small and IQLECT is ready to play its due part in emerging IT landscape. IQLECT is
expanding the geographical reach and building a line-up of clients in e-commerce,
financial services, media and telecommunication industries.

    Looking back at the journey of IQLECT leading to this day of cloud offering launch,
Lip-Bu Tan, IQLECT mentor and board member of HP enterprise says, "We are proud of the
team at IQLECT led by Sachin Sinha, which has been persistent in its goal of disrupting
the analytics space. The IQLECT on cloud is a formidable tool and in times to come, it
will play a pivotal role in shaping the landscape of data based decision making."
