HCL to acquire ETL Factory to help accelerate data integration and migration

HCL Technologies has agreed to buy ETL Factory Limited, doing business as Datawave, a UK–based company that has created an innovative data automation platform which enables enterprise customers execute large-scale, complex data–migration and data–integration projects in a leaner, faster and smarter way. The flagship product Datawave has won the Informatica Innovation Award and is also extendable to other platforms, including big data.

 

“The acquisition of Datawave and its suite of products bolsters HCL’s capabilities to collaborate with clients on their mission–critical data transformation projects, incorporating a culture of DevOps and continuous integration,” said Rahul Singh, President and Head, Financial Services, HCL Technologies. “Datawave also brings in significant banking industry expertise.”

 

“In a recent market study done by HCL, 81% of organizations said they were overwhelmed with the volume and a variety of data needed to drive digital transformation. Datawave’s automation solutions will significantly help our clients accelerate their digital journey through a robust data architecture,” said Anand Birje, Corporate Vice-President and Head – Digital & Analytics, HCL Technologies.

 

“The synergies between Datawave’s customer-centric, enterprise data integration platform and HCL’s technology leadership and deep engineering capabilities will deliver unparalleled value to our clients,” said Mark Butterworth, CEO, Datawave.
