AtScale Announces Next-Gen Product Innovations to Foster Data-Driven Industry-Wide Collaboration

BOSTON, April 24, 2024 — AtScale, the leading provider of semantic layer solutions for analytics and Generative AI, today announced at the annual Semantic Layer Summit significant product innovations, aimed at advancing the industry into a new era of data-driven innovation.

The announcements reinforce AtScale’s commitment to fostering easier collaboration and agility across all business units, empowering organizations to derive greater value from their data assets, and to gain a competitive edge in today’s rapidly evolving business landscape.

Next-Generation Platform

The next-generation of AtScale’s platform is designed to facilitate seamless collaboration and agility across organizations. By leveraging a modernized architecture, AtScale enables effortless scaling and seamless integration with leading cloud data warehouses. The platform is anchored on three foundational pillars of innovation:

• Flexibility: AtScale established a Universal Semantic Hub to serve all AI and BI tools, allowing organizations to leverage semantic technologies effectively, regardless of size or industry sector. This allows teams to work with their preferred data products, making organizations more agile – and the entire process more cost-effective.
• Collaboration: AtScale enhanced the discoverability, reusability, and oversight of analytics-ready semantic objects, shifting the focus from data products to analytics products. AtScale’s object-oriented, code and no-code modeling tool promotes sharing and collaboration across multiple personas, including business analysts, data engineers and data scientists.
• Community: AtScale is committed to democratizing analytics consumption both within organizations and between organizations, by enabling anyone to build and share semantic models across industries and semantic layer platforms AtScale launched a free public preview version of its semantic layer platform called the Developer Community Edition, a new semantic modeling language (SML), and a repository of pre-built, reusable semantic models in GitHub, helping to establish a common language and set of tools for all.

“This is a significant milestone in our mission to empower organizations with data-driven insights while supporting collaboration across the data and analytics community,” said Dave Mariani, founder and CTO, AtScale. “The semantic layer serves as a key technology enabler for delivering the best of both worlds; business-friendly, self-service analytics, but with governance and control. By supporting traditional BI teams alongside a new generation of analytics users, our ‘plug and build’ approach accelerates data-driven innovations in a unique way.”

“The significance of cultivating a shared understanding of data throughout an organization cannot be overstated,” added Mariani. “As AI usage grows throughout the enterprise – and AI models become more sophisticated – the need for high-quality, well-understood data increases. The semantic layer empowers AI with context and clarity, enabling these models to not just process data, but understand it and use it to improve long-term decision making.”
