As some of you may have noticed, I'm explaining the architecture, roadmap and vision of the Actian Data Intelligence Platform in a series that I simply call Actian Explained. The roadmap and overall vision is crafted by one of the most brilliant tech pioneers in France, Guillaume Bodet. Guillaume introduced the Scrum methodology in France, in partnership with Jeff Sutherland, and as such he is one of the earliest adopters of modern software engineering globally. I met Guillaume as he was transitioning from software into data - but he didn't transition like the majority of software engineers did. Because he also stayed in software engineering, as he is building software - then Zeenea, now the Actian Data Intelligence Platform with many new features and capabilities, well beyond a regular data catalog. It's the coming together of modern software principles applied in the data domain, which are so sorely needed, _directly_ in a software product intended for managing data at scale. When I talk about our data intelligence platform, I change from explaining already existing components in the platform that are ingeniously crafted, over the release of innovative features, to our long term visions and distinct point of view on how companies should work with data.
