Did you know today's data platforms still use algorithms invented in the 1970s? Vintage can be cool, but it's mind boggling to think that today's state of the art data platforms are still running on decades old technology built for very limited computers.

You aren't still booting your computer off of floppy disks or listening to audio off of 8-tracks...why would you manage your enterprise data infrastructure with algorithms developed in by-gone eras?

These algorithms simply can't organize large quantities of data quickly and efficiently in multiple dimensions at scale. This means organizations can't naturally model large scale use cases as events and relationships on interconnected timelines. Organizations are not able to rapidly and efficiently extract value from their data or take advantage of recent breakthroughs in AI.

Craxel's breakthrough, patented Black Forest technology uses an Order One - O(1) - algorithm to determine exactly where a data value should be stored or found, enabling astonishingly fast range, intersection, spatial, and multi-dimensional query. Results? Radically reducing time to insight, ad-hoc query latency, and marginal cost of query.
