Built for Modern Cloud Data Platforms
IRiS is a lightweight automation tool that does one thing exceptionally well: it streamlines the delivery of the Silver layer in your Lakehouse. By removing manual coding and complexity, IRiS accelerates time‑to‑value, reduces risk, and ensures your investment in AI and analytics delivers business outcomes from day one.
Solving the Pain of Slow, Costly Delivery
Too often, organisations struggle with slow delivery, brittle processes, and expensive coding, making data products hard to create and even harder to adapt. These obstacles stall analytics initiatives and erode ROI. IRiS solves this by embedding automation, governance, and agility into your Lakehouse, so teams can deliver data products and insights quickly, sustainably, and at lower cost.
