VelociData was formed in 2012 to bring its innovative streaming compute technology to the enterprise market. Proven in financial markets throughout the world and backed by more than 40 US patents, VelociData’s products are the first of their kind in the marketplace. With the ability to capture, and operate on massive amounts of data, as the data is flowing, without slowing the data down we open up game changing approaches to gaining insight and driving actions. These new stream computing paradigms allow new approaches in integrating real time data, capturing source information from huge network environments and quickly diagnosing issues and deriving automated actions. Rather than landing and post processing data stores to gain valuable insights, VelociData allows for immediate insights to be derived, and actions to be defined and automated. In an environment in which the sources of data, and the data itself is exponentially growing the old techniques of landing and post processing data will simply not scale. Real time stream computing will become the only realistic means to gain immediate value from data and not be overwhelmed by the unstoppable growth. VelociData is here to help make the move into this new reality easy and successful.
