may the 4th be with you.
to every founder rebuilding their licensing service for the third time — to every engineer who's debugged a flag-vs-billing mismatch at 2am — to every team writing the same glue code for the fourth time —
you're the rebels. we see you.

Save the date: On Tuesday, 7/23, Join @fivetran CEO @frasergeorgew and MotherDuck CEO @jrdntgn for a discussion on the evolution of data systems and architecture beyond Big Data.

Your modern laptop is more powerful than a state-of-the-art cloud data warehouse.

Building AI demands a new kind of infrastructure centered on data lakes and lakehouses, with intuitive, local-first data processing and analytics workflows at the heart of reducing our reliance on the cloud.

Don't miss it!

Last week, we hosted the DataGalaxy H2 Roadmap event! 🚀

It was a great chance to share our current strategy and plans to accelerate through the end of the year.

👏 Thank you to our customers who attended!

What a shame @FlixBus_USA_CA @FlixBus ... 7h30 delay on a highway with a pregnant woman, no water, no food ...

The cause of the delay was due to a malfunctioning part in your bus... it took 7 hours and 30 minutes to get a replacement bus

How can you reply something like this 😅

Databricks revealed some sensational growth this week, as they did last year. Exiting this quarter to $2.4 billion annual run rate, the company’s revenue growth is accelerated year-over-year by 10 percentage points.

Net dollar retention is a major driver of growth at 140%, which is top decile. The table above shows the other data points that we’ve collected through their press releases in the last two years.

The fastest growing product category mentioned is the data warehouse revenue : 100% growth, now at $400m annually, nearing 20% of revenue.

With these modest data points, we can build a basic linear regression model for what the company is worth. This model is rough with an R^2 of approximately 0.45.

Assuming Databricks continues to grow at roughly 50%, that implies the company in the public markets would be worth approximately $54b. However, the company will likely trade at a premium to this. It is one of the few companies that provides significant exposure to AI software in the public markets.

Compared to Snowflake, Databricks is growing nearly twice as quickly. Without additional data, it’s difficult to comment on the relative sales efficiency or profitability.

Databricks’ growth rate is yet another example of the rapid demand for AI infrastructure & the systems needed to power it.
