Blue Medora has expanded itsSelectStar SaaS monitoring platform to support Apache Hadoop and Cassandra clusters. 
 
SelectStar helps data operations and DevOps teams cope with the rapid changes in data platforms and analytics, including the costs, complexity and availability risks created by massive data processing demands from increasingly popular business-critical applications that leverage distributed architectures like Hadoop and Cassandra.
 
SelectStar presents a comprehensive view of thousands of health, performance and availability metrics for Hadoop and Cassandra clusters and nodes, as well as historical details for in-depth troubleshooting. With SelectStar, data operations professionals pinpoint and resolve issues faster using a dashboard of an organisation’s overall data health.
 
“Database management has moved beyond typical DBMS, notably with the rise of distributed architectures for analytics. We found many teams didn’t have enterprise-class monitoring for technologies with open-source roots, like Hadoop and Cassandra,” said Mike Kelly, SelectStar general manager and CTO of Blue Medora. “By presenting a single dashboard for the entire big data deployment, SelectStar helps customers bring their data layer into this decade and increase analytics performance.”
