AI is only as good as the data behind it, and most enterprises are struggling to deliver data that is clean, governed, and ready. Traditional unstructured data management approaches make it worse, sitting in the hot data path, leaving data in proprietary formats, and blocking AI and analytics teams from the data they need. Meanwhile, flash and storage price hikes are making inaction expensive. Komprise works differently. The Komprise Intelligent Data Management platform is storage-agnostic and non-disruptive, using intelligent tiering to automatically move unstructured data to the right storage at the right cost, with no disruption to users and applications, no lock-in, and ensuring data is always available in native format. Komprise Smart Data Workflows and the Global Metadatabase go further, giving AI pipelines the contextually rich, governed data they need to produce trustworthy results, fast.
