Imanis Data

The firm's core offering was the Imanis Data Management Platform, a software-defined product designed to protect and manage data for NoSQL and Hadoop workloads. It operated on a subscription-based business model, with pricing based on the amount of data managed. The platform addressed the growing need for robust data protection for modern databases like MongoDB, Cassandra, CouchbaseDB, and Hbase, which were often underserved by traditional backup solutions. Clients included Fortune 500 companies across various sectors such as retail, financial services, and travel.

The Imanis Data platform provided comprehensive data management functionalities including backup and recovery, disaster recovery, test data management, archiving, and ransomware protection. A key feature was its use of machine learning for early anomaly and ransomware detection, branded as ThreatSense. The software operated with an agentless architecture, using native APIs to interact with database platforms, which simplified management across large-scale deployments. It was hardware-agnostic and could be deployed on-premises or in public cloud environments, offering features like any-point-in-time recovery and significant backup storage reduction. The technology was designed to be petabyte-scale, providing a single interface to manage both traditional and modern data workloads, thereby eliminating data silos.
