About

A top-tier data integration and data integrity platform with strong open-source heritage, now operating under Qlik's ownership as part of a broader data and analytics portfolio.

Talend is a leading data integration and data integrity company whose platform enables organizations to collect, govern, transform, and share data across cloud, hybrid, and on-premise environments. Founded in 2005 and headquartered in Redwood City, California, Talend built its reputation on open-source roots before evolving into a comprehensive enterprise SaaS offering. Its platform spans data integration, data quality, master data management, and data governance, making it a critical tool for enterprises seeking to operationalize trusted data at scale. Talend's product suite — including Talend Data Fabric, Talend Data Integration, and Talend Data Quality — serves a broad range of industries including financial services, healthcare, retail, and manufacturing. The company went public on NASDAQ in 2016 (ticker: TLND) and grew to serve thousands of enterprise customers globally. Its open-source community edition helped drive widespread adoption and developer mindshare, while its commercial offerings addressed enterprise-grade scalability, compliance, and governance needs. In 2023, Talend was acquired by Qlik, the data analytics and integration company, for approximately $1.56 billion. Under Qlik's ownership, Talend continues to operate as a distinct brand and product line, now positioned as part of a broader data integration and analytics ecosystem. The acquisition strengthened Qlik's end-to-end data pipeline capabilities, combining Talend's data integration strengths with Qlik's analytics platform to offer customers a more unified data-to-insight solution.
