The annual Ventana Research Digital Innovation Awards showcase advances in the productivity and potential of business applications, as well as technology that contributes significantly to the improved processes and performance of an organization. Our goal is to recognize technology and vendors that have introduced noteworthy digital innovations to advance business and IT.
Ventana Research has awarded Ascend.io Ascend Data Pipeline Automation Platform its prestigious 2023 Data Digital Innovation Award. This award is given to the vendor that best
Data Operations (DataOps) is a methodology focused on the delivery of agile business intelligence and data science through the automation and orchestration of data integration and processing pipelines, incorporating improved data reliability and integrity via data monitoring and observability.
Data engineers are responsible for monitoring, managing and maintaining data pipelines. They are under increasing pressure to deliver high-performance and flexible data integration and processing pipelines that are capable of handling the rising volume and frequency of data. Automation is a potential solution to this challenge and can improve the productivity of data engineers by providing an interface to develop, test and productionize data pipelines in coordination with continuous integration and continuous delivery development processes.
Ventana Research selected Ascend.io for the 16th Annual Data Digital Innovation Award for its single platform that handles data ingestion, transformation, orchestration, observability and delivery. The platform provides a declarative approach to data pipeline creation and management, as well as automated fingerprinting of data and code for observability.
There are numerous standalone tools in the DataOps category designed to improve productivity for data engineers across multiple disciplines including data integration, orchestration an observability. Ascend Data Pipeline Automation Platform is designed to deliver further productivity by providing a single environment that addresses five key areas of functionality: data ingestion, transformation, orchestration, observability and delivery.
Ascend.io assembled a broad and deep portfolio of capabilities to address the requirements data engineers have in relation to managing and automating data pipelines. If you have not examined how Ascend.io and Ascend Data Pipeline Automation Platform can help your organization, it is well worth your time. Congratulations, Ascend.io, for your continued innovation.
