The Lucata computing architecture leverages patented migrating thread technology to enable organizations to leverage massive pools of physical memory to accelerate and scale graph analytics and AI and ML model training by orders of magnitude beyond the capabilities of existing approaches.

We are now at an inflection point when the technology evolution is aligned with market needs. Our solution offers the scale and performance necessary for businesses to achieve their goals for a range of use cases in the key verticals shaping our world today, from financial services to cybersecurity to blockchain to healthcare and more.”
