Otta's take
Xav Kearney
CTO of Otta
Data engineering is invaluable due to the analytical insights it can provide, with analytic computation generally taking place within programming languages such as SQL and Python. However, regardless of the data infrastructure a business operates, the ETL/ELT and data processing speeds of these languages are not sufficient at scale unless compiled on a next-gen supercomputer.
Bodo.ai provides a cloud-driven data processing compute engine for SQL and Python, allowing businesses to access the power of advanced compilers and MPI parallelization technologies through cloud computing. The compute engine integrates directly with existing data stacks, allowing data engineers to work within familiar platforms and languages whilst harnessing the power of high-spec supercomputers.
Whilst the company will face competition from existing data warehouses and Spark data processing engines, Bodo.ai's advanced compiler and MPI parallelization technologies show an increased efficiency over such solutions, which should pave the way for the company to secure clients and expand its operations in the future.
