Have Issues With Big Data? Check Out These 5 Data-as-a-Service Startups
Data is big. By that, we mean that there’s not only a lot of data, but handling all that data is a problem that everyone from small businesses on up to the big boys, like Google and Facebook, has to tackle in one way or another.
To help with the problem of handling Big Data, Dealmaker Media has announced a group of startups that it says are “providing answers to all your database problems in unique and innovative ways.”
Dealmaker Media, the company behind the Under The Radar conference that brings together a number of early stage, “bleeding-edge technology startups” each year, has put together a list of companies under the title of “Data-as-a-Service.”
“Scaling databases is a hard problem,” writes Dealmaker Media Community Manager Clare Jacobson. “In fact, both Google and Facebook have had to build their own solutions to avoid buckling under today’s online and data-thirsty society.”
Companies that can’t build their own solutions, writes Jacobson, are left “looking to innovative startups to provide scaling solutions.”
So, what companies did Dealmaker pick for their collection of data-as-a-service recommendations?
If you find yourself, like so many other companies, unable to handle the data deluge, then one of these five companies may be able to save you from developing your own solution. The full blog post offers more details on each of the companies.
