\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tEarlier in the week, Concurrent, headquartered at California, announced its recent fund acquisition of $10 million, with a focused mission to use the new funds in R & D efforts of its flagship product Driven, the industry\u0092s pioneer performance management tool for the data-oriented applications market. The company also plans to scale up its operations to accommodate a rapidly increasing customer base. Additionally, the company welcomes its newly appointed board members.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

In this environment\u0097data must be operationalized very quickly to aid the deployment and proper functioning of data products. Concurrent enables organizations to build, deploy, and manage data-centric applications within the existing business framework.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

With the twin products, Cascading and Driven, Concurrent plans to continue leading the big data application-development infrastructure market Driven. This company\u0092s holistic philosophy may be to provide advanced infrastructure for new-technology driven, data applications. Concurrent has established several, important industry partnerships to make the data-centric product development process\u00a0as described by Market Wired<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>smarter, simpler, and faster.<\/em><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
