SAN MATEO, Calif., January 18, 2018 — AtScale, the only company to provide enterprises with a universal semantic platform for BI-on-the-Data-Lake, announced today the appointment of Kip Bowes as its Vice President of Customer Success. In this role, Bowes will be responsible for onboarding AtScale’s growing roster of large enterprise customers.

“In just a few years, AtScale has grown from a Big Data Analytics startup to a major company with technology that every enterprise Chief Data Officer requires to succeed in the implementation of their data analytics strategy,” said Ryan Floyd, managing director of Storm Ventures. “We are excited for Kip to join AtScale.

Bowes comes to AtScale with more than 20 years of experience in organizational strategy, new business development, and solutions delivery for top technology companies.

In addition, Kip has led Services teams at Oracle, Endeca, Tibco, Macromedia, and Allaire Corp. Kip earned a BS in Computer Science from Baldwin-Wallace College and an MBA from Rice University.

“While working at Cloudera, I watched AtScale make a large impact on the BI on Big Data market and achieve impressive results for enterprise customers,” said Bowes. “I’m passionate about spreading cutting-edge technology and driving customer success: AtScale is the perfect place to fulfill both.”

This appointment comes after a momentous year for AtScale, during which the company completed a $25 million Series C financing round, released three new products that support the Cloud — making it the only company to support BI-on-the-Data-Lake, might it be on Hadoop, non Hadoop, on-premises, or on any cloud (Microsoft, Amazon or Google).
