Perforce Delphix Enterprise Update: Continuous Compliance, Data Control Tower, Hyperscale, And Compliance Services
Delphix updates transform compliance, masking, and virtualization into a centralized, cloud-first platform. Merito helps enterprises implement Data Control Tower, Hyperscale, and automated workflows efficiently.
Delphix’s latest release transforms data compliance and delivery into a core, governed platform rather than a collection of side tools. Across Continuous Compliance, Continuous Data, Data Control Tower, Hyperscale Compliance, and Compliance Services, updates deliver stronger automation, faster data access, and centralized governance that meets audit standards.
FASTER, MORE RELIABLE MASKING WITH APACHE HOP
Delphix has migrated the Continuous Compliance engine from Kettle to Apache Hop, improving masking throughput by 3–5x and enhancing orchestration reliability.
Enterprise impact:
High-volume platforms like core banking and ERP can complete masking within batch windows, reducing compliance risk.
Fewer failed runs lower the chance of unmasked data entering non-prod or analytics environments.
Operational impact:
Test data teams meet SLA windows consistently.
DBAs and compliance engineers spend less time re-running failed jobs.
AUTOMATED SENSITIVE DATA DISCOVERY (ASDD) ACROSS MODERN FILE FORMATS
ASDD now covers JSON, XML, delimited, fixed-width, VSAM, and Parquet files with classifiers for financial, medical, and PII data.
Enterprise impact:
Supports GDPR, HIPAA, PCI, and local regulations by mapping sensitive data across databases and files.
Avoids unmasked edge identifiers in AI/ML or analytics datasets.
Operational impact:
Teams can onboard new systems faster using automated profiling.
Less manual discovery, faster ruleset creation, and broader coverage.
RICHER MASKING ALGORITHMS FOR GLOBAL REGULATORY COVERAGE
Enhanced frameworks include character replacement, string chaining, valid address masking, email composition, Mod11 check digits, and Brazilian financial IDs.
Enterprise impact:
Removes custom scripts for international compliance.
Reduces audit findings and re-identification risks.
Perforce Delphix Enterprise Update: Continuous Compliance, Data Control Tower, Hyperscale, And Compliance Services
Operational impact:
Data privacy engineers apply complex policies easily.
Testers receive realistic datasets that pass validation rules.
FILE MASKING ACROSS CLOUD AND LEGACY SYSTEMS
Masking now supports S3, Azure Blob, VSAM, mainframe MVS, Hadoop/HDFS, and Parquet files.
Enterprise impact:
Closes blind spots in object storage and mainframe data.
Supports regulatory reporting and modernization programs.
Ensures production matches approved baselines for SOX and internal controls.
Reduces untracked test data copies.
Operational impact:
Platform engineers manage environments and detect drift.
Dev teams request refresh/bookmarks via ServiceNow without specialized knowledge.
CONTINUOUS COMPLIANCE IN CLOUD AND CONTAINERS
Deploy on AWS ECS Fargate, use Azure Vaults/GCP Secrets, and simplified LDAP.
Enterprise impact:
Aligns with cloud security and compliance baselines.
Reduces access control misconfigurations.
Operational impact:
Standard ECS Fargate patterns with IaC.
LDAP integration lowers operational overhead.
HIGH-SCALE MASKING WITH HYPERSCALE COMPLIANCE
Supports Snowflake, Hadoop, MongoDB, Parquet, delimited files with dataset filtering and split calculation.
Enterprise impact:
Governs AI/ML and analytics datasets effectively.
Improves masking consistency for multi-terabyte analytical tables.
Operational impact:
Configure mask/unload/load workflows centrally.
Standardized connectors free engineers from custom Spark code.
COMPLIANCE SERVICES FOR AZURE
Templates for ADF, Databricks, Dynamics 365, Fabric, plus Private Link and conditional masking.
Enterprise impact:
Enforces consistent masking in cloud-native pipelines.
Maintains analytical quality while protecting privacy.
Operational impact:
Data engineers use ready-made templates.
BI teams get compliant and analytically consistent datasets.
CENTRAL RISK AND STORAGE REPORTING
Data Control Tower surfaces Data at Risk, Block Storage, Storage Savings, engine performance, and license usage.
Enterprise impact:
Portfolio view of unmasked data for auditors.
Tracks virtualization ROI and capacity risks.
Operational impact:
Dashboard visibility for platform owners.
Compliance managers report masked/unmasked data effectively.
WHY THIS MATTERS AND HOW MERITO HELPS
Delphix now provides a governed, cloud-first platform for multi-format data, integrated with CI/CD, Terraform, ServiceNow, and analytics pipelines. Merito helps enterprises:
Design target-state architectures combining Continuous Data, Compliance, Hyperscale, and Data Control Tower.
Prioritize high-risk data domains for early adoption.
Build operational models with governance, reporting, and reusable blueprints.
Next steps with Merito:
Assessment and roadmap for sensitive data coverage, DR posture, storage, and tool usage.
Pilot critical workflows for Oracle, Snowflake, AI training data, and Hyperscale pipelines.
Scale with guardrails using Terraform, ServiceNow, masking templates, and reporting conventions.
FAQs
Q1: How does Merito implement Data Control Tower as a central control plane? Merito inventories engines/datasets, configures connectivity, replication, tag models, Self-Service migration, and reporting, integrating with ServiceNow and Terraform for a governed platform.
Q2: How does Merito prioritize Snowflake, S3, Azure Blob, and Hadoop? Focuses on regulated analytics and AI paths, designing Hyperscale Compliance jobs and Azure Compliance Service templates with Private Link, standardizing masking and profiling.
Q3: How do these features improve testing and release practices? Integrates Delphix into SDLC: environment blueprints, automated refresh+mask, DR flows, and CI/CD integration, providing self-service masked data and predictable release steps.
Q4: How does Merito ensure secure and compliant Delphix deployments? Implements Secure Boot, encrypted NFS/iSCSI, TDE, vault integrations, and private connectivity, codifying patterns in Terraform and cloud templates, validated via pilots and controls.
Q5: What if we only use Delphix for a few databases? Merito conducts a platform optimization engagement, enabling Elastic Data, Data Control Tower reporting, ASDD, and new algorithms, then phases adoption across additional data sources.
Q6: How does Merito accelerate analytics compliance? Standardizes Hyperscale masking jobs, templates for Azure Data Factory and Databricks, and AI-powered synthetic data, reducing risk and speeding onboarding of new environments.
