Alation and AWS customers can benefit from reliable and flexible analytics that empower data users to spend more time deriving insights from data as opposed to searching for data on multiple infrastructures.

With Alation, organizations can understand data usage patterns and determine the best AWS data source to migrate that data to, providing enterprise customers with fast, flexible access to data in the cloud.
