Cazena

Cazena was a Waltham, Massachusetts-based enterprise software company, founded in 2014, that delivered a fully-managed SaaS data platform — a "Big Data as a Service" cloud data lake that let enterprises run analytics, machine learning, and data-lake workloads on managed cloud infrastructure without operating the underlying stack themselves. The company was backed by Andreessen Horowitz (a16z), North Bridge Venture Partners, and Formation 8. Cloudera agreed to acquire Cazena (alongside Datacoral) in June 2021, folding Cazena's managed SaaS data-lake technology into the Cloudera platform. Cazena no longer operates as an independent provider; its domain cazena.com now redirects to cloudera.com, and it exposes no independent public API, developer portal, or documentation.

Cazena is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Big Data, Data Lake, Analytics, and Cloud.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/cazena: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
