Dive Insight:
For enterprises to assemble the software needed to analyze streaming data on their own takes a lot of time and expertise, noted Florian Leibert, CEO and co-founder of Mesosphere. In response, Mesosphere developed Mesosphere Infinity as a "turnkey solution," Leibert said.
Trifiro added: "We noticed a pattern in heavy users of Mesos. They were all building these real-time data analytics platforms... We identified a whole tier of enterprise customers that don't want to compose these things from individual pieces."
