Eventual is a data platform that helps data scientists and engineers build data applications across ETL, analytics and ML/AI. Eventual is the developer behind Daft, an open-sourced query engine that runs on 800k CPU cores daily. Which is more compute than Frontier, the world's largest supercomputer! Today's data tooling (Spark, Presto, Snowflake) was built for a world of tabular data analytics, but does not generalize to the needs of modern ML/AI such as multimodal data, heterogenous compute and user-defined Python algorithms. Eventual and Daft bridge that gap, making ML/AI workloads easy to run alongside traditional tabular workloads. Eventual was founded in 2022 and is based in San Francisco, California.
