Due to the increasing amount of diverse data types, companies face challenges in organising and analysing their stored data. This means data teams are overwhelmed as they accommodate data requests from within the company while striving to ensure consistent data policies are maintained.
One company tackling these data challenges is DataHub - formerly Acryl Data - a California-based startup that operates the DataHub Project, an open-source data catalogue. Alongside its data catalogue, the company offers a solution for data governance and observability. This managed service, DataHub Cloud, builds upon the open-source capabilities of the DataHub Project, introducing features that streamline the operational management of information.
Major companies such as Stripe and Pinterest already utilise DataHub, while Notion and Zendesk rely on its cloud service as their data management solution. This success has attracted the support of numerous investors, having raised an impressive $35 million in 2025. DataHub is now focused on expanding its R&D efforts, scaling its operations and further expanding its open-source community base.
