As a kid in the UK I dreamt of being a Formula 1 driver. I loved watching F1 races because of the innovative design and engineering of the cars, the fierce competition between the drivers at incredible tracks across the world. Alas, that dream never materialized, but I found my career path in software by accident as a teen. I could apply some of the same lessons I learned from F1 into my work - a focus on constant innovation and a genuine love of competition.Silicon Valley was the place to be for software so in 2000 I borrowed $500 USD, packed a bag, and moved from London to San Jose. I worked my way up in various Silicon Valley companies focusing on product and engineering leadership over the years. During this time, I consistently ran into the same patterns across analytics problems. It was deeply frustrating to deal with data transporters, data warehouses, transformers, BI tools and data catalogs with tools, processes and people in between. The hoops and processes that had to be jumped through to gain meaningful data insights was mind boggling. And none of the solutions in the market made it easier.I knew there had to be a better way. What would a data stack look like from the ground up if we weren’t chained to the existing solutions?The vision was clear: Unified Analytics without Unified Data. I wanted to build an accessible product that would allow users to analyze any kind of data, from any source and be able to ask questions of their data using plain English. Knowi is the only end-to-end analytics platform that flattens the stack and instantly connects any data, anywhere to accelerate your business success – from a single solution.- Native integration with SQL, NoSQL, APIs and other data sources means Knowi can connect and analyze your data within minutes – WITHOUT moving it.- Our unique virtual Dataset-as-a-Service negates the need for data transporters, transformers, and data outhouses. - Ask questions in plain English in Knowi across datasets or in Slack/MS Teams. - Embed lets you share dashboards into the applications your business teams, partners, and clients are already using.- Integrate machine learning algorithms directly into their analytics workflows.- Scalable across petabyte scale data on Cloud, on-prem, or hybrid deployment optionsAt Knowi we use the best lessons I learned from F1 - constant innovation and a fiercely competitive attitude, to help drive our customers to the next level. Today, many of the largest companies in the world trust Knowi for their critical workloads. We are just getting started.
