Building on open source and at scale should be effortless
AI has made open source hotter than ever. Most founders we meet build their data stack on PostgreSQL®, ClickHouse® and OpenSearch®. And for good reason! They’re free, context is there in the open for LLMs, and nobody’s locked in.
Then the product takes off, and the engineer who should be shipping features spends the week on upgrades. Typical reaction for teams is to adopt either one vendor for each of the data technologies or default to proprietary versions of different cloud providers.
At Aiven, we run these open source technologies across all clouds and package this into one experience with context and runtime next to the data. You can take your workloads where your enterprise customers need to run them without worrying about upgrades, scaling, or dealing with multiple clouds. That’s why an increasing number of AI startups, like E2B, build on Aiven.
“Building on open source and at scale should be effortless for the next generation of founders. We’re excited to be at Slush so we can help you do that. Let’s make infrastructure the least of your worries”, says Oskari Saarenmaa, CEO and co-founder, Aiven.
“Aiven is a prime Nordic example of what happens when founders think global from day one. We’re happy to partner with Aiven, who are building the sovereign cloud infrastructure Europe needs. Aiven’s mission to make open source infrastructure effortless at scale matches what many founders at Slush are actually trying to do, and we’re excited to have them here as a Main Partner this year,” says Noora Saksa, CEO at Slush.
