SAN DIEGO, CA Jan. 26, 2024 — BigDATAwire (formerly Datanami), the leading publication covering big data, analytics, and AI news, today announced the winners of its eighth annual Readers’ and Editors’ Choice Awards. The awards recognize the companies and products that made a difference in the big data community in 2023 and provide insight into the current state of the industry.

BigDATAwire has designated two categories of awards: (1) Readers’ Choice, where winners have been elected by a global community of readers, and (2) Editors’ Choice, where winners have been selected by BigDATAwire editors. The process started with an open nomination process, with voting taking place for 30 days.

“It’s my great honor today to announce the winners of the 2023 Readers’ Choice Awards,” said BigDATAwire Managing Editor Alex Woodie said. “The world of big data, advanced analytics, and AI moves incredibly fast, and these solution providers have demonstrated the skill, determination, and acumen necessary to succeed in these rapidly evolving markets.”

These awards, now in their eighth year, are gaining recognition as being among the most prestigious recognition given by the big data and AI community to its own each year, and are the only awards that provide open voting to a worldwide audience of end users.
