DataStax offers free software for startups

Online application specialist DataStax has announced a new initiative to help startup businesses. DataStax software delivers a scalable big data platform and is used by large organizations including Adobe, eBay and Netflix, but the DataStax Startup Program allows eligible startups to deploy DataStax Enterprise applications for free.

The company has also launched a new DevCenter tool, which is free for its existing users, to allow the graphical creation of queries and database objects in Cassandra Query Language. This is along with free online training courses to teach users how to work with big data in the open-source Apache Cassandra database.

New companies qualify for the Startup Program if they have received less than $20 million in funding and operate within a designated revenue threshold.

"I remember when we at DataStax were a cash-strapped startup, and we want to help companies in that scenario succeed," says Matt Pfeil, co-founder and vice president of customer solutions at DataStax. "The DataStax Startup Program gives young companies access to software that will let them focus on their customers rather than fighting challenges with data growth".

If you're running a startup business you can find more about the DataStax Startup Program on the company's website.

The free online Cassandra training will be available in November, aimed at helping developers and administrators get the most out of the software. It uses a self-paced format with hands on exercises and ends in a graded assessment. Pre-registration is available at the DataStax Academy page.

Alcatel-Lucent challenges Cisco, Brocade unified access

Alcatel-Lucent is offering its enterprise switch users a free software upgrade to converge wired Ethernet networks with wireless from Aruba Networks.

Aruba and Alcatel-Lucent have had a longtime partnership to jointly market and integrate each other's products. This software upgrade is an extension of that and is designed to bring all campus networking products under one view with consistent BYOD management.

The plan is similar to unified access strategies from Brocade and Cisco. Brocade ended a four-year arrangement with Motorola to enter into a new one with Aruba.

[THE COMPETITION:Cisco takes next steps to blend wired, wireless networks]

The free software provides an interface between Alcatel-Lucent's OmniSwitches, OmniAccess routers and OmniVista network management system to Aruba's ClearPass access management system, software that allows enterprises to provision and manage mobile devices. The software performs device configuration, guest registration, troubleshooting and monitoring across wired and wireless networks.

Also supported is Aruba's AirGroup Services under ClearPass Policy Manager, which enables end users and IT administrators to self-register Apple devices and set access limits to them.

The software also features automatic configuration of 802.1X security and certificates for laptops, tablets, printers and cameras. Alcatel-Lucent is also offering professional services to support customers deploying the unified access and BYOD management system.

Even though Alcatel-Lucent's unified access software is free, Aruba ClearPass is not: pricing for ClearPass starts at $6,500 for a 500-device Virtual Machine license and $10,000 for an appliance license, both of which include device profiling and policy management. Additional BYOD services, like onboarding and guest access, etc., are priced separately, varying by service and block of license.
