Alluxio
CEO: Steven Mih
Running business analysis or other big data workloads becomes more complex within hybrid-cloud and multi-cloud environments. Alluxio has developed a data orchestration platform for managing data for analytics and machine learning tasks when compute and data storage functions are in different locations.
Alluxio’s virtual distributed storage system is based on a memory-centric, fault-tolerant architecture that enables the separation of storage and compute functions, bringing data closer to distributed compute operations and simplifying data access for cloud workloads.
Based in San Mateo, Calif., Alluxio was found in 2015 at U.C. Berkeley’s AMPLab by the creators of the Tachyon open source project, upon which the Alluxio software is based.
