Ocient is a data analytics solutions company enabling organizations to explore and interact with hyperscale data sets quickly, cost effectively, and in previously infeasible ways to deliver meaningful insights and drive customer innovation. Ocient’s hyperscale enterprise data warehouse platform delivers disruptively better price performance on hyperscale data 10x-50x faster than competitive solutions. Ocient’s highly experienced team of data engineers and industry veterans can partner with customers to design and build custom analytics solutions from pilot to production, deployed on-prem, in the OcientCloud or in the public cloud. Headquartered in Chicago and London Ocient is backed by investors including OCA, Greycroft and In-Q-Tel. By fundamentally rethinking database architecture, Ocient has built a database platform for organisations where Hadoop and NoSQL databases fall short, in areas such as: - Complex SQL and intra-database machine learning on multi-petabyte datasets- Ingesting billions of rows per second, then filtering and computing aggregate results at rates up to trillions of rows per second- Interactive query response time and second to sub-second data latency.- Mission critical insights that currently are only aspirational due to cost and performance limitationsWe seek out datasets measured in tens of terabytes, petabytes, or exabytes — with trillions or quadrillions of rows. Ocient can run OLAP and Machine Learning/AI queries on historical and real-time data with the best price performance in the industry, achieving 50-1,000 times better query performance at a far lower cost than any of the alternative solutions, on the cloud or on premise.

My job is to deeply understand how our customers use the Ocient database and manage the roadmap with that in mind. Our target environments range from 100's of Terabytes to Exabytes. In addition to managing the product, I've designed and implemented the underlying enhancement prioritization processes and infrastructure. I also manage numerous technical partnerships and product integrations. While Ocient focuses on multiple different use cases, my focus in on those that do geospatial analysis and machine learning.
