InfluxData
InfluxData is the company behind InfluxDB, the open source time series database purpose-built for high-volume, timestamped data from sensors, applications, infrastructure, and IoT devices. Founded in 2012 and led by CEO Evan Kaplan and founder/CTO Paul Dix, InfluxData rebuilt its engine in Rust on the Apache Arrow, DataFusion, Flight, and Parquet stack for InfluxDB 3. The platform is used by more than 1,900 paying customers - including Tesla, IBM, Cisco, PayPal, and Nordstrom - to collect, store, and analyze real-time data at scale.
Greptime
Greptime is an open-source database company building GreptimeDB, a unified observability database that stores metrics, logs, traces, and wide events in a single engine on object storage like Amazon S3. Written in Rust and built on Apache Arrow and DataFusion, it separates compute from storage to cut costs at scale and speaks both SQL and PromQL. Founded in 2022 by ex-Alibaba and Ant Group engineers, Greptime positions GreptimeDB as a drop-in replacement for the Prometheus, Loki, and Elasticsearch stack, serving customers across connected vehicles, IoT, and observability.
