Press Releases

Alluxio (formerly Tachyon), developers of the world’s first system that unifies data at memory speed, today announced general availability of its product portfolio, Alluxio Enterprise Edition (AEE) and Alluxio Community Edition (ACE). Alluxio provides a unified view of enterprise data that spans disparate storage systems, locations and clouds, allowing any big data compute framework to access data in any storage system at memory speed. Today it runs critical workloads in Global 2000 companies such as Alibaba, Baidu, Barclay’s Bank, CERN, ESRI, Huawei, Intel, and Juniper, among others.

Alluxio (formerly Tachyon), developers of the world’s first memory-speed virtual distributed storage system that bridges big data applications and underlying storage systems, will be exhibiting (Booth #P30) at Strata + Hadoop World, taking place Sept. 27 – 29, 2016 at the Javits Convention Center in New York City.

At HUAWEI CONNECT 2016, Huawei partners with Alluxio to announce the release of their big data storage acceleration solution, integrating Huawei’s FusionStorage with Alluxio’s memory-speed virtual distributed storage system. This solution realizes unified data management, improves data analytics performance and popularizes the adoption of big data applications in the enterprise.

Alluxio (formerly known as Tachyon), the world’s first memory-centric virtual distributed storage system, today announced its open source version 1.0 release. The vision for Alluxio is to become the de-facto storage unification layer for big data and other scale-out application environments in the same manner that Apache Spark became the standard computation layer.
