EON CEO: You Could train AI Using Your Backups | Builders Series

Watch our exclusive interview with Ofir Ehrlich, Co-Founder and CEO of Eon.io.


As companies need more data to train their #agents, Eon.io has grown rapidly, #raising over $500M in just two years to chase a $100B+ market #opportunity.


We explored how their platform enables organizations to retrieve and extract #data directly from cloud #backups with minimal overhead, while also indexing that data so it can be used for #AI and BI applications.


One particularly compelling case study we touched on was their work with SoFi, where Eon.io reduced #data retrieval times from days to minutes and delivered over 100% #ROI in the first year.


Interestingly, because the solution is #agentless, clients don’t need to install any #software. That led to a discussion about how the company #balances the access needed and data governance.


We then explored how the #cloud is evolving into a “nervous system” for organizations, and whether this shift means organizations are moving away from buying #infrastructure like VMs and toward purchasing outcomes such as #automation


From there, we discussed the broader cloud #ecosystem and whether, in the near future, it will become easier for companies to move workloads between #cloud providers.


Lastly, we touched on Ofir’s angel #investments, including the green flags he looks for in founders, and the ultimate question: what matters more - choosing the right #team or the right #market?


And take a guess what is Ofir favorite #Movie? 🚀🌕🧑‍🚀
