It's a platform that delivers AI-ready data infrastructure in just weeks with full context and governance built-in, without the need to rip and replace current systems."
As the public sector navigates the race towards digital transformation and AI adoption, the need for trusted, governed and rapidly deployable data infrastructure has never been greater.

"Rick's extensive track record driving large-scale technology transformations across some of the largest, most complex government agencies makes him the ideal leader to bring DataOS to the public sector," said Saurabh Gupta, Chief Strategy and Revenue Officer at The Modern Data Company. "These organizations face unique challenges around data infrastructure, cybersecurity, analytics and AI-readiness. The urgency to deliver analytics and AI capabilities is intensifying as agencies manage growing data volumes with limited time and budgets.
