Since their inception, databases had been designed with the notion of compute being a scarce resource. So they organized data in advanced data structures, on disk and in memory, so that when the query comes in, you’re using as little compute resources as possible. The onset of the GPU as a general compute device marked…
The proliferation of sensors in automobiles has ushered in a new era of data-rich vehicles, offering immense benefits in terms of analyzing this wealth of information and creating data-driven products and features. Modern connected vehicles are equipped with a multitude of sensors, including those for engine performance, safety, navigation, and connectivity. These sensors continuously generate…
Generative AI has raised people’s expectations about how soon they can get answers to the novel questions they pose. What amazes them first is how fast GenAI responds to them. When people see this, they wonder why they can’t have a similar experience when asking questions about their enterprise data. They don’t want to have…

These requirements are then used…
