He said: “If you look at the storage aspect for big data, there’s always innovation, but we can put a lot of data in one place.”

Eran added that the complicating nature of data also added to the significance of its company. “…translating data into insight? It’s so hard. It’s costly. It’s slow. It’s complicated. And, it’s the one big thing I have learnt since venturing,” the CEO remarked.

Varada embraces the idea of data lakes and enriches it with its indexing capabilities.
