Meltwater Participates in the Launch of AWS Data Exchange

SAN FRANCISCO (NOVEMBER 13, 2019) – Meltwater, one of the world’s largest providers of news and social data, today announces it is a launch provider on AWS Data Exchange, a new service that makes it easy for millions of Amazon Web Services (AWS) customers to securely find, subscribe to, and use third-party data in the cloud.

“We’re delighted to welcome Meltwater in AWS Data Exchange,” said Stephen Orban, General Manager, AWS Data Exchange, Amazon Web Services, Inc. “With the market calling for more external data to compliment internal datasets, AWS Data Exchange customers can now leverage Meltwater’s data to enhanced visibility into the world around them, so that they can make better informed decisions.”

With AWS Data Exchange, customers from all industries can leverage Meltwater’s packaged data products to support multiple business processes. For example, investors can identify potential trading opportunities by tracking daily changes in media coverage and sentiment for companies, and rebalance portfolios based on shifting sentiment and business event patterns across different industry verticals. Media and Entertainment production teams can inform talent and programming decisions by tracking changes in daily media coverage and sentiment for TV streaming platforms and flagship shows, while making more informed sponsorship and advertising decisions by tracking coverage for different celebrities. Healthcare and Life Sciences organizations can track media coverage around key drug classes and market accordingly.
