SAN MATEO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Hammerspace, the company orchestrating the Next Data Cycle for enterprises, today announced the details of its business momentum entering 2024.

The increasing need for datasets originating at the edge, stored in various vendor silos, and spread across diverse clouds to power AI is prompting organizations to urgently assess data architectures at a strategic level.

Working with existing customers like Blue Origin, The National Science Foundation, Royal Caribbean Group, and Hyperscale Large Language Model (LLM) environments, Hammerspace is well-positioned to be a key component in data architectures around the globe as organizations look to deliver high-performance data to massive GPU compute environments and overcome data silos to move their data to available compute and preferred AI models.

To fuel this momentum, Hammerspace is quickly growing its employee base and tripling its go-to-market resources to work with customers and partners designing data strategies and storage environments for this next data cycle.

Whether organizations are bringing data to their AI models of choice or making unstructured data sources available to external analytics platforms such as Snowflake and Databricks, Hammerspace gives organizations the ability to design their data architecture for flexibility and move data to where it is needed for compute processing and local proximity to analytics and AI models.
