Attunity CloudBeam Expands to Amazon Machine Image

Attunity is expanding its presence on Amazon Web Services (AWS) by launching a version of its CloudBeam cloud data transfer software-as-a-service (SaaS) offering as an Amazon Machine Image (AMI) on the AWS Marketplace.

According to Attunity, the launch of the AMI version is intended to help customers more easily access scalable big data loading and replication in the Amazon cloud.

"Clearly, the benefits of offering Attunity CloudBeam in AWS Marketplace are numerous," said Lawrence Schwartz, vice president of Marketing at Attunity, in a prepared statement. "Out of the gate, it provides a more seamless experience with simplified management and billing for Attunity CloudBeam customers. Due to Attunity CloudBeam's scalability, self-service and simple provisioning capabilities, customers can often realize the benefits of the solution in just a matter of minutes. With Attunity CloudBeam, Attunity expects to gain additional mindshare and awareness with new sets of customer audiences and ultimately increased customer adoption of Attunity CloudBeam from AWS Marketplace."

A few of the key benefits Attunity is highlighting regarding CloudBeam include:

With the new version of CloudBeam, customers get an hourly, metered, pay-as-you-go cost model for data replication and loading capabilities. Attunity also offers its bring-your-own-license (BYOL) consumption model for flexibility in using existing CloudBeam licenses to spin deployed solutions up or down on an as-needed basis.

CloudBeam supports Amazon EC2, Redshift and Simple Storage Service (S3).
