MetaLayer

edit

metaLayer Inc. is making the world’s information easier to understand, visualize and share with practical big data products that make working with real-time data streams easy for technical and non-technical people alike.

At the center of these solutions is MetaLayer’s Open Data Core, an open-source implementation of frameworks for distributed stream processing and analysis that integrates with existing data infrastructure (Hadoop, MongoDB, SQL etc.)

MetaLayer works some of the worlds most important institutions in the areas of Public Safety, Intelligence, Law Enforcement and Disaster Response.
