Vertics

Vertics is a technology company and software platform focused on cloud-native data analytics and machine learning. The platform emphasizes modularity, scalability, and interoperability with open standards and common data formats.

The flagship product, Vertics Platform, provides data ingestion, transformation, storage, and analytics in a single environment. It supports batch and streaming data, SQL-compatible queries, and a library of connectors to common data sources. Built-in governance, security, and auditing help organizations meet compliance requirements. The company also markets Vertics Edge for edge computing and Vertics AI Studio for model development and deployment.

Vertics was founded in 2010 by Mira Kline and Omar Rahman in San Francisco. The company grew through partnerships with cloud providers and system integrators. In 2015, Vertics released Vertics Core, a modular runtime for data pipelines, and in 2019 rolled out Vertics 3.x, adding real-time streaming, improved observability, and expanded governance features.

Reception and impact: Vertics targets midsize to large enterprises across finance, manufacturing, and retail. Proponents praise its scalability, security model, and ecosystem of connectors; critics point to a learning curve and licensing costs for enterprise deployments.
