Contents
Dataupia was founded by Foster D. Hinshaw to address the growing need for analytics in "huge data" applications such as for telecom and auto-reporting (Internet of Things).
All data are designed to facilitate reporting and analysis. This classic definition of the data warehouse focuses on data storage. However, the means to retrieve and analyze data, to extract, transform and load data, and to manage the dictionary data are also considered essential components of a data warehouse appliance system. The Dataupia Satori Server is part of a market trend to provide all aspects of the data warehouse appliance in a single product.
The company has headquarters in Cambridge, Massachusetts, with additional offices in Binghamton, United Kingdom. The company is privately held.
Company name
Dataupia's name is a portmanteau of the words "data", in reference to the data warehousing industry, and "utopia". The combination of words is used by the company to imply ideal access to data.
Dataupia Satori Server
The Dataupia flagship product, Satori Server, is a network-attached data warehouse appliance. As an appliance, it includes an embedded copy of Linux, a database engine, an aggregation engine, built-in storage, and parallel processors. In contrast to other complete-solution, custom-assembly data warehouse appliances, the Satori Server integrates seamlessly with existing Oracle, SQL Server and DB2 databases. This "omniversal transparency," as Dataupia calls it, allows Satori Server to interoperate with existing database management systems, rather than requiring them to be replaced. In theory, this would be a boon to customers with a huge investment in existing databases and data warehouse/business intelligence applications.
