I’ve already talked about the Talend Customer base and adoption expansion. Today, I’ll focus on the numerous partnerships we’ve built over the course of the past few months.
Talend developed several dozen partnerships to expand its ecosystem of technology partners and distribution/integration channels, including:
- Greenplum – Talend and Greenplum announced a partnership for software integration, marketing and sales, bringing new high-performance analytic capabilities to businesses of all sizes

It provides access to advanced tools, while offering dedicated support and training to ensure optimal cooperation between Talend and the partner’s teams. Talend continues to build its partner network, and to recruit dynamic and knowledgeable partners. Learn how to become a Talend partner.
Next post will focus on innovation, industry accolades, and internal affairs.

Loraine Lawson from IT Business Edge interviewed Talend Integration Suite customer John Shafer from Levolor.
In this in-depth interview, Shafer explains how and why his company switched from hand-coded data integration to Talend’s open source data integration solution. He discusses risk avoidance, learning curve, productivity, project documentation, etc.
Definitely worth reading.

Last week Teradata was holding their annual user conference at the Mandala Bay in Las Vegas. For the first time, Talend sponsored this conference and we announced our partnership with Teradata. Overall, a great event:
- Open source is now recognized as an enterprise solution, as shown by the people who stopped by our booth there. When you recognize 90% of the company names on the attendees badges, you know you are dealing with global enterprise clients!
- A couple interesting keynotes, including Dan Ariely, Professor at MIT Sloan School of Management, on irrational behavior, and Lance Armstrong, World Champion Cyclist. But Teradata is used to getting prestigious keynote speakers – I remember in a past life when they had Lech Walesa on the roaster at a conference in Warsaw.
- I did meet with several analysts and journalists – see this blog from Curt Monash, and a podcast with Shawn Rogers from the BeyeNETWORK.
