Film buffs will remember the above scene from Stanley Kubrick’s iconic Dr. Strangelove, in which President Muffley says, “Gentlemen, you can’t fight in here! This is the War Room!” The absurd, satirical line is oddly applicable to what’s happening today in machine learning teams. The machine learning folks shouldn’t be data wrangling- they should be focused on machine learning. But because we don’t often receive our data in a usable format, valuable time is spent transforming, moving, and cleaning data.

Automotive is the buzzing topic at CES 2017. That’s no surprise given the pace of innovation in vehicle connectivity and autonomy. But beyond the cool concept cars and live demos, CES discussed questions about safety, regulation, social impact, smart cities and how these new vehicles will change life and jobs as we know it. New vehicle technology has the opportunity to transform how we live, and save lives while doing it. But is the automotive industry ready for this challenge?

Welcome to the Nexla blog! We’re happy to debut our new blog and logo just in time for the AT&T Developer Summit and CES. We want to make it easier for companies to be able to collaborate with data, and for data engineers to do their jobs faster and with ease. We aim to simplify the complexity of data operations in the machine learning age. We wanted our logo to reflect this commitment to simplicity.
