LOWELL, Mass., Sept. 12, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Podium Data Inc. has been named as a 2016 Computerworld Data+ Editors’ Choice Awards honoree. The award recognizes innovative big data initiatives that have delivered significant business value.

Podium was selected by the editors of Computerworld for its central role in delivering a production-ready, enterprise-grade data lake. The TD Bank Enterprise Data Provisioning Platform is helping the bank achieve its vision of next-generation agile banking by giving 80,000 business unit employees on-demand self-service access to data through a secure, enterprise-scale data marketplace.

“Big data has the potential to help organizations dramatically expand business users’ access to enterprise data and analytics to drive smarter, more agile business decision-making.
