Leonardo da Vinci once said, "Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication". It is especially true in technology space, as it requires plethora of adept engineering in backend to craft a simple and sleek end product; a rare gift not everyone is endowed with.

Qubole democratizes access to data within an organization and empowers both developers and non-developers, e.g. data analysts, to learn actionable insights from massive data sets.
