MarkLogic announced that Tata Consultancy Services has created the MarkLogic Center of Excellence to better service large multinational customers deploying MarkLogic’s data integration services in order to fuel digital transformation and build mission-critical applications. “With unprecedented levels of digital disruption and change in the marketplace today, our customers demand an enterprise-ready database that is agile, secure, easily scalable and can provide the most accurate data needed to fuel their digital transformation programs and mission critical applications,” said David Ponzini, EVP Marketing and Corporate Development at MarkLogic.

As a global innovator and key MarkLogic partner, TCS established the MarkLogic CoE by bringing together architects, developers, administrators and testers to provide the highest level of service and support to clients seeking to enhance customer experiences, improve operational agility and reduce costs by integrating data silos. With over 250 staff, the MarkLogic CoE is serving over 20 Fortune 500 companies in banking and financial services, manufacturing, and media, servicing more than 40 projects ranging from MarkLogic application development to testing and consulting.

Ponzini added: “By integrating our industry leading NoSQL database with TCS’s deep business IT and consulting expertise, we have created an alliance that helps businesses around the world more quickly, easily and effectively digitally transform and derive more value from their data than ever before.”

“TCS has invested in and built the MarkLogic CoE in order to serve its global customers that have embarked on solving large scale, mission critical business problems,” said Dinanath Kholkar, Vice President and Global Head, Analytics and Insights at TCS. “TCS continues to deliver value with intellectual property offerings on its ‘Data Analytics Target Operating Model’ with MarkLogic, enabling success for joint customers building their data foundation strategies. With its ‘Business 4.0’ offering TCS is leading organizations to become intelligent, agile, automated and on-the-cloud businesses.”

Existing joint customers will benefit from the MarkLogic CoE’s ability to enhance current successful deployments already in the market today.

“TCS has been a long-standing partner of McGraw-Hill and played a key role in the solution and implementation of our unique custom publishing solution. MarkLogic’s software is a key component of this platform and powers this solution. TCS has partnered with McGraw-Hill and MarkLogic to build and continuously innovate on this unique implementation,” said Gene Greenberg, Director of Engineering, McGraw-Hill Education.

MarkLogic continues to push the envelope around innovative services built into the MarkLogic platform. In May, MarkLogic announced the release of version 9.0-5. The latest major update is an expansion on MarkLogic 9, an already dynamic multi-model database platform for securing, sharing and integrating data. Now with 9.0-5, large organizations gain greater security out-of-the-box, enhanced facilities for mission-critical operations and workload management, and major enhancements to MarkLogic’s open source, fully supported Data Hub Framework.
