Organizations generate a lot of data that is stored in silos, often in incompatible formats, making it slow and costly to extract actionable insights, which in turn drives demand for modern cloud-based data analysis platforms that can efficiently analyze the silo-ed data.

There has been a stampede out of high valuation technology stocks as raising interest rates encourage investors to value profits over growth again , but data analytics stocks held their ground better than others, with the share prices up 18.3% since the previous earnings results, on average.
