The Motivation behind Starting the Company
The CEO and founder of Omni, Colin, explains that the motivation behind starting the company stemmed from a desire to get back to the roots of building and working directly with customers. The previous experience at Looker highlighted the tension between the desire for a self-serve data model and the limitations of a governed data model. The goal of Omni is to balance the best of both worlds by creating a tool that allows end users to be productive and self-sufficient while also ensuring scalability, governance, and trust in the data.
