We’re making data discoverable, usable and reliable.

Decentralized, connected, responsible data sharing will unlock the full potential of enterprise-scale analytics, ML and GenAI. At Nextdata, we’re reimagining data as programmable, executable, containerized data products that are continuously managed and quality-controlled throughout their lifecycle. We believe in everyone’s control of their unique data experience, built on top of standard data product containers that abstract complex and diverse data stacks across your organization.

Why we started Nextdata

The future of data lies in decentralization, and the concept of a data mesh is the proven approach for implementing this at Enterprise scale. We’re here to make it an operational reality.

We understand that the world of data is complex and messy; data models are out-of-date the moment they are created; data is owned across trust boundaries; data is stored on different platforms; data is used in many different modes and most importantly data can't protect itself. We recognize that past approaches to tackle these complexities with centralized data collection, modeling and governance are ineffective at best and pathologically unfair at worst.

Our mission is to reimagine the world of data with you, so data is always secure, always discoverable, and always ready for whatever user, application or agent needs it, wherever and however it is stored.

Our vision

Our vision is to build a world where AI/ML and analytics are powered by data that is decentrally owned and responsibly shared across boundaries of organizations, technology, and most importantly, boundaries of trust.

Our purpose

Our purpose is to change the experience of creating, sharing, discovering, and using data forever, to be connected, fast, and fair.

Our technology

Our technology is designed to empower data developers, users and owners with a delightful experience where data products are a first-class citizen, with trust built-in. Our first product is Nextdata OS, a data mesh operating system that works across any infrastructure, for any cloud platform, using any format of data and data processing, from batch to streaming.
