Key Quotes:
- “People rag on JIRA. Jira is like the ultimate Swiss Army knife - it's not good at anything but it can be made to do anything, and I think there is power in that. So people make fun of JIRA, but JIRA is actually, I think, a pretty impressive piece of software if you overlook the maddening nature of it sometimes.”
- “This is just not a thing that is out there. So we solve this in this need that is growing bigger and bigger and bigger. I want to have real time analytics. I want to do real time operations. I wanna make smart decisions. As you know, data grows and companies get smarter about data and their operations,like this is only getting increased. And so the thing I love about SingleStore is it's actually an incredibly differentiated product and solves a real need for our customers. So that's definitely one of my favorite things about the job.”
- “We're converging now to where it's like, customers, they don't want to have a million databases. They want to have the smallest number of databases they can and serve all their use cases. And that's really the power of SingleStore, this vector analysis use case is not like, we had to go build a ton of stuff to make it work. We already had it because we're a super powerful database, shared nothing distributed and just purpose built for speed. “
