Upcoming ISG Provider Lens^® report will evaluate Cloudera partners strengthening enterprise data platform architecture, operations and lifecycle accountability

STAMFORD, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 20, 2026-- Information Services Group (ISG) (Nasdaq: III), a global AI-centered technology research and advisory firm, has launched a research study examining providers that help enterprises redesign and advance their data architectures using Cloudera Data Platform as a scalable, AI-ready data foundation.

The study results will be published in a comprehensive ISG Provider Lens^® report, called Cloudera Ecosystem Partners, scheduled to be released in June 2026. The report will cover companies offering data and AI modernization and operationalization services.

Enterprise buyers will be able to use information from the report to evaluate their current vendor relationships, potential new engagements and available offerings, while ISG advisors use the information to recommend providers to the firm’s buy-side clients.

Organizations are redefining data management by redesigning how data, analytics and AI operate across hybrid and multicloud environments. They focus on building scalable platforms capable of supporting advanced analytics and AI. Cloudera provides a hybrid data and analytics environment that integrates data engineering, warehousing, streaming and AI within a unified control framework. Its ecosystem providers help companies evolve legacy architectures, migrate and optimize workloads, implement governance structures and deploy AI in production settings.

“Cloudera’s cloud-native platform brings fragmented data services into an integrated environment, enabling analytics and AI to operate on secure, trusted data,” said Namratha Dharshan, chief business leader at ISG. “Realizing its full value requires disciplined execution and strong partner expertise to translate technical capabilities into scalable, business-aligned operating models.”

ISG has distributed surveys to 50 Cloudera ecosystem providers. Working in collaboration with ISG’s global advisors, the research team will produce one quadrant representing the Cloudera ecosystem services the typical enterprises are buying, based on ISG’s experience working with its clients. The quadrant is:

• Data and AI Modernization and Operationalization Services, evaluating Cloudera ecosystem providers that enable enterprises to modernize and operationalize data and AI environments across distributed and cross-cloud infrastructure. These providers are assessed on their ability to design architectures, deploy Cloudera environments and optimize workloads.

The study will cover the global Cloudera ecosystem and examine products and services available globally. ISG analysts Sonam Chawla and Maharshi Pandya will serve as authors of the report.

A list of identified providers and vendors and further details on the study are available in this digital brochure. Companies not listed as Cloudera ecosystem providers can contact ISG and ask to be included in the study.

All 2026 ISG Provider Lens^® evaluations feature expanded customer experience (CX) data that measures actual enterprise experience with specific provider services and solutions, based on ISG’s continuous CX research.
