About e6data

The Lakehouse compute engine purpose-built for your heaviest, most compute-intensive workloads. Trusted by NASDAQ listed enterprises and leading unicorns to deliver 5x faster queries, over 50% Cost Savings, and Dismantling of ecosystem lock-in.

Enterprise data leaders are hit by an unprecedented explosion in compute demand for data intelligence. They are surprised to find that 10% of their heavy, compute-intensive use cases consume 80% of the cost, engineering effort and stakeholder complaints. Unfortunately, such workloads are also mission-critical and non-discretionary.

e6data amplifies ROI on enterprises' existing data platform and architecture - with Zero data movement, Zero application migration, and Zero Downtime.

e6data’s truly format-neutral compute has the unique distinction of being equally efficient and performant across leading Data Lakehouse table formats (Delta, Iceberg, Hudi), Data Catalogs (Unity, Hive, Glue, Fabric), Clouds (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud), Object stores (S3, ADLS Gen 2, GCS).
