Line's DSEC needs to handle a large volume and variety of data and deliver insights to multiple lines of business to provide services for 186 million monthly active users around the world. "In order to be at the forefront of innovation, it is crucial for us to be able to manage, harness, and secure big data while democratizing it," said Cheolho Choi, Engineering Director of Data Platform and Fellow of Data Engineering, LINE Corporation.

By unifying the data warehouses from LINE's various services, LINE envisions that its data platform will be enhanced and users across the organization will be provided with governed, self-service analytics without compromising the safety of their data.

"Consumers today expect businesses to offer personalized services and innovate quickly while keeping their data safe," said Mark Micallef, Vice President of Asia Pacific and Japan, Cloudera.

The collaboration will help LINE consolidate its big data infrastructure while minimizing downtime, optimizing its big data environment to ensure that server resources are efficiently used by machine learning technologies and existing analysis workloads that power LINE's services, and ensuring consistent and high level of data protection. In addition, Cloudera's customized training will equip DSEC's engineers with the skills to manage and secure big data effectively. By having such skilled talents, LINE will be in a better position to promote research and development of the AI technology powering its business.
