FAQs

Things prospects ask

Cloud preference?

AWS, Azure or GCP — same blueprint, cloud-native primitives, portable IaC.

Build vs buy?

We compose: open-source core (Iceberg, Feast, MLflow) + managed where it pays.

How does this connect to Data Enablement?

Directly. The Refinery's seven strata land here as governed feature + vector tiers.
