Kalido

Kalido was a company that provided a cloud-based data warehousing and analytics platform. Founded in 2002, Kalido aimed to simplify the process of building and managing data warehouses, making them more accessible to businesses of various sizes. Their platform was designed to handle large volumes of data and offer tools for business intelligence and data analysis.

The Kalido solution offered features such as automated data integration, data modeling, and data quality management. It was intended to reduce the complexity and cost typically associated with traditional data warehousing approaches. The company focused on enabling users to gain insights from their data more quickly and efficiently, supporting decision-making processes across different departments.

Kalido's target market included businesses looking to leverage their data for competitive advantage but lacking the extensive IT resources or expertise required for complex on-premises solutions. The company emphasized ease of use and a faster time to value for its customers.

In 2015, Kalido was acquired by Cognizant, a global professional services company. The acquisition aimed to integrate Kalido's technology and expertise into Cognizant's broader data analytics and digital transformation offerings, further enhancing their capabilities in helping clients manage and utilize their data assets. Following the acquisition, the Kalido platform continued to be developed and offered as part of Cognizant's service portfolio.
