Case Study: Aunalytics achieves unified data access and faster analytics with Alluxio

Aunalytics Leverages Alluxio as a “one-stop-shop” for Data I/O

Aunalytics, a data platform company delivering Insights-as-a-Service, needed a single solution to simplify a growing digital transformation gap across complex analytics environments. As it built its next-generation Aunsight™ compute platform, the company faced operational overhead from multiple storage systems and compatibility challenges across disparate compute services, and turned to Alluxio for unified data access and better data I/O management.

Alluxio was deployed as the primary data access and write layer for Aunalytics’ batch compute, dynamic query, and Daybreak™ environments, connecting HDFS, NFS, and object storage behind a single point of access. With Alluxio, Aunalytics reduced data movement and copy requirements by up to 90% after migration and improved compute and delivery times by up to 30%, while gaining faster performance through in-memory caching and more flexible storage tiering.
