WANdisco secures two new record contracts

 

Big Data contract

 

WANdisco (LSE: WAND) a leading provider of enterprise-ready, non-stop software solutions, is pleased to announce it has secured a significant new Big Data contract through a large Oracle reseller.  The end customer is a leading US financial services institution. This contract, secured in conjunction with WANdisco's partnership with Oracle, is the largest so far for WANdisco's Fusion Big Data product and is valued at $1.5 million.

 

The end customer joins a growing list of companies using a combination of WANdisco Fusion and Hadoop for storing and analysing huge amounts of unstructured data running on Oracle's Big Data Appliance ("BDA").

 

 

ALM contract

 

In addition, WANdisco also secured its largest deal in two years for its Subversion MultiSite Plus ALM (application lifecycle management) software with a major global bank headquartered in Europe.  The value of the deal is $775,000.

 

David Richards, WANdisco Chief Executive Officer, comments:

 

"We're delighted to have secured two important contracts both in terms of size and market opportunity that help us towards our targets for this financial year and beyond.  The Big Data contract win is testament to the progress our product is now having across the market.  The end customer is one of Oracle's largest BDA customers and joins a growing list of companies using WANdisco Fusion with Oracle BDA for critical analytics applications that require continuous availability across multiple locations.

 

"Our new business pipeline for cloud solutions continues to grow. We remain focused on delivering our objectives of growing revenues, controlling our cost base, becoming cash flow breakeven and taking the market opportunity that is open to us."
