Waterline Data

CEO: Alex Gorelik

As organizations assemble Hadoop-based data lakes for storing huge amounts of data, finding the best way to make use of all that information becomes a significant challenge – not to mention the data governance headaches it creates.

Waterline Data addresses that problem with its Smart Data Catalog software that builds a complete inventory of data lake assets, improving data discovery and data governance and making it easier for businesses to derive value from those assets.

Founded in 2013, Mountain View, Calif.-based Waterline Data raised $16 million in Series B funding in January.
