The category was the most competitive of the evening with 12 other companies nominated for the award but PolarLake was selected because of its ability to innovatively apply Semantic Web and Big Data Technologies to solve Data Management problems in Financial Services Firms.”

PolarLake CEO John Randles commented, “The Data Management industry is constantly changing due to increased regulatory requirements and firms having to handle internet style scale and complexity.
