Nikita Shamgunov, CEO of SingleStore, discussed the demands of AI and machine learning data infrastructure in his keynote at the AI Data Science Summit 2019. He highlighted the importance of having the right architecture and data infrastructure for AI, as only 15% of organizations have it, and noted that most AI projects face challenges moving from concept to production due to multi-step workflows. SingleStore can simplify and accelerate these steps by plugging into modern applications and workflows, allowing for automation and real-time responses. The company is currently testing technology that enables rapid response times of 2ms and is working with top US banks on fraud prevention use cases.
