Our take
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 Acryl Data, a California-based startup that operates the DataHub Project, an open-source data catalog. Alongside its data catalog, the company offers a solution for data governance and observability. This managed service, Acryl Cloud, builds upon the open-source capabilities of the DataHub Project, introducing features that streamline the operational management of data.
Major companies such as Stripe and Pinterest already utilise DataHub, while Notion and Zendesk rely on Acryl Cloud as their data management solution. This success has attracted the support of numerous investors, and with the capital raised, Acryl Data is now focused on developing a new platform that enhances data discovery, observability, and control, further addressing the evolving needs of organizations in the data-driven landscape.
