(Check out our TEDx talk and case studies .)The problem: After working on 200+ data projects, we learned how tough it was to scale data teams. Data teams are one of the most interdisciplinary teams ever created. Theyre made up of analysts, data scientists, engineers, business users diverse people with their own tooling preferences, skill sets, and DNA that need to come together. This leads to collaboration chaos.We were awoken with crisis calls every second day for the minutest of issues from troubleshooting why a number on a dashboard was incorrect to difficulties in getting access to the right data set! Atlan started with us building tools to make our own data team more agile.These tools made our team 6x more agile, helping us take on amazing projects like building Indias National Data Platform used by Indias Prime Minister. The best part this was built by an eight-member team, the fastest project of its kind to go live, in a record twelve months instead of the projected three years.We asked, could the tooling we built for ourselves help data teams around the world Thats how Atlan was born.
