About Us

Early Stage IT was founded in 2009 in response to the then-new economics of cloud computing. See the website for more. In 2011, we introduced DataThinks as a new service.

We have worked on three different data-centric applications: two using Google App Engine's DataStore and Map/Reduce, and one using MongoDB, streaming and Map/Reduce. Some of our previous presentations:

  1. Social Network Mining using GAE Map Reduce, October, 2011
  2. High Throughput Data Analysis, August, 2011
  3. NoSQL and Map Reduce, April, 2011
