Astronomer employs a large share of Airflow's core committers, serves 700+ enterprise customers, and raised a $93M Series D in May 2025 to power orchestration for enterprise AI workloads.
DataBahn is an AI-powered, security-native data pipeline and fabric platform that helps enterprises collect, enrich, orchestrate and optimize telemetry across security, observability, application and IoT/OT systems. Its agentic products - Cruz, Reef and Phantom agents - automate data engineering work, cut noise and reduce SIEM/telemetry costs by more than 50% while preserving visibility for security and IT teams.
Flume Health is a New York-based healthcare technology company building operational infrastructure that connects the fragmented data ecosystem behind health plans. Founded in 2017 by Cedric Kovacs-Johnson and Vineeth Bhuvanagiri, Flume gives payers, third-party administrators, and vendors a way to move, translate, and make sense of healthcare data. It started as a plan administrator, pivoted to the Relay integration platform, and has since evolved into an AI-native data platform - mapping enterprise data estates into a living knowledge graph and running domain-specific AI agents so non-technical teams can query and act on healthcare data in plain language.
K2view is an enterprise data company founded in 2009 and headquartered in Yokneam, Israel, with US operations in Texas. Its patented Data Product Platform is built on a proprietary micro-database technology that organizes fragmented enterprise data by business entity - a customer, order, product or loan - so each entity's data lives in its own encrypted, real-time, individually managed database. The approach powers data integration, test data management, data masking, synthetic data generation and, increasingly, AI-ready data pipelines that ground large language models and AI agents. K2view serves large enterprises in telecom, banking, healthcare, insurance and retail, including AT&T, Verizon, Vodafone and BBVA, and has raised roughly $43 million in funding.
