Torch.AI recently announced the acquisition of a Department of Defense focused data storage and analysis software company, DataTech, and anticipates additional acquisition activity to accelerate the growth of the company.
“It’s getting harder and harder for people to get the information they need from data. As data continues to grow in volume and complexity, mission outcomes are put at risk. It’s even more severe when traditional monolithic architectures and legacy data warehousing systems are involved,” added Weaver. “Torch.AI software uniquely solves for these impediments. Our teams have the expertise to guide customers through this exciting journey. The companies joining the Torch.AI family provide discreet technology solutions that benefit from the features of our growing data platform. Adam will be leading an aggressive acquisition strategy that complements the rapid growth we’ve been experiencing, and we have more on the horizon.”
