ROUND ROCK, Texas, Jan. 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Actian, the data and analytics division of HCLSoftware, announced it has been recognized as an Honorable Mention in the 2024 Gartner Cloud Database Management Systems Magic Quadrant for the first time.

Gartner Magic Quadrants identify and analyze the most relevant providers in a market based on their execution and vision. The Cloud Database Management Systems Magic Quadrant evaluated vendors that supply fully managed cloud database management systems services for some or all operational and analytical use cases. 

By 2028, Gartner projects that database platform-as-a-service spending will account for 78% of the market. In addition, on-premises solutions continue to grow, which underscores the significance of on-premises and hybrid solutions for certain segments.

Given this evolving landscape, Actian believes it is well-positioned to help customers navigate these complexities. This hybrid environment is where Actian excels, enabling customers to integrate, govern, analyze, and manage data seamlessly across cloud, hybrid, and on-premises environments.

The report also notes, “Overall, Actian provides a range of products and solutions that are trusted by customers, flexible (they run on-premises, in the cloud or hybrid), and easy to use. Its products provide an integrated data platform that supports solutions in multiple industries, including manufacturing, finance, healthcare, transportation, logistics, communications and retail.” 

“Organizations require cloud database solutions that support both transactional and analytical workloads, integrate seamlessly with existing data ecosystems, and enable efficient data management across cloud, hybrid, and on-premises environments,” said Emma McGrattan, CTO of Actian. “This recognition highlights our commitment to providing trusted, flexible, and easy-to-use data solutions with seamless data integration and enhanced interoperability across the entire data ecosystem to help our customers unlock new opportunities and innovate.”

Spigen announces the launch of a new case lineup optimized for the Samsung Galaxy S25 series, featuring Qi2-compatible cases created with the help of Samsung through their official accessory partnership program.

IRVINE, Calif., Jan. 22, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Spigen, a leading global provider of mobile device accessories, announced the launch of a new case lineup for the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S25 series. Through the Samsung Mobile Accessory Partnership Program, Spigen has worked closely with Samsung to develop a meticulously tested lineup that ensures seamless compatibility and optimal performance with the S25 series.

Qi2 Compatibility: A New Standard

The S25 is one of the first mainstream smartphones to feature Qi2 technology. However, this functionality is not native to the device itself and requires the use of specifically designed Qi2 accessories.

To unlock the full potential of the S25 devices, Spigen has developed a new lineup of Qi2-compatible cases. These cases have been extensively tested hands-on with the S25 devices, making sure users are getting the most that Qi2 has to offer.

Key Highlights of the New Lineup:

Spigen’s lineup for the S25 series boasts a range of unique and protective options, which include:

ZeroOne MagFit and NeoOne MagFit: Fan favorites, known for their distinctive “teardown” design, offering a glimpse into the inner workings of the Galaxy S25.Thin Fit MagFit: Designed for the minimalist, a sleek option provides everyday protection while maintaining an unnoticeable profile.Parallax MagFit: Previously known from Spigen’s sibling company Caseology, making a debut in the lineup with its vibrant splash of color and a mesmerizing geometric pattern.

Revamped MagFit for Galaxy

The implementation of Qi2 into Spigen’s cases further unlocks a new world of functionality through magnetic accessories. Spigen’s popular MagFit collection, an ecosystem originally designed for iPhone, has been refined for Galaxy. Spigen re-engineered several MagFit wallets specifically for Samsung, accounting for the vertical camera bar design.

Spigen’s MagFit for Galaxy lineup offers a diverse range of stylish and functional wallet options. From the sleek Urban Fit to the playful Nano Pop, these wallets accommodate up to 3 cards, featuring easy access slots and a grippy texture on the back to prevent accidental slippage.

Availability

Spigen’s Samsung Galaxy S25 collection is already available on Amazon with more accessories on the way.
