Monte Carlo
Top Executive: Barr Moses, Co-Founder, CEO
Monte Carlo’s data observability software is used to monitor data across IT systems, including in databases, data warehouses and data lakes, to gauge and maintain data quality, reliability and lineage—what the company calls “data health.”
The startup’s platform evaluates data according to its freshness and how up to date it is, the volume or completeness of data tables, the data schema or organization of the data, data lineage including sources and usage, and the data’s distribution (whether the data’s values are within an accepted range).
Monte Carlo, founded in 2019 and based in San Francisco, raised $60 million in Series C funding in August, financing the company will use to accelerate product development, fuel its go-to-market efforts and promote the data observability concept.
