Us

The next generation of applications to transform industries will bring powerful analytics to front-line decision-making. These new applications need a new, smart database foundation that tears down the traditional barriers between transactions and analytics, and that can process sophisticated planning, predictive analysis, and business logic in one unified, high-performance engine. This new database foundation must natively take advantage of the cloud and multicore computing, and free developers to focus on solving innovative problems, not on figuring out the underlying technology. LogicBlox provides this next-generation, smart database foundation.

 

Team

We have brought together a world-class engineering, science, and business team, with 37 engineers (including 23 Ph.D.s), who share a passion for re-envisioning what’s possible with a clean slate, the limitless scale of the cloud, and multi-core computing.

Our engineering team has been published in POPL, PLDI, PODS, SIGMOD, PADL, OOPSLA, ASE and many other ACM and IEEE conferences and journals.

We also benefit greatly from our network of over 50 academic collaborators at 25 of the world's leading universities, who are pushing the boundaries of computing and science and helping make LogicBlox a unique, next-generation database for smart transactional and analytical applications.

 

Clients

LogicBlox is working closely with a select group of early ISV partners and Fortune 50 companies in multiple industries. Companies using LogicBlox include:

  • A Global Top 10 retailer, to produce billions of weekly promotional forecasts.
  • One of the world’s leading systems integrators, to optimize how personnel at a major government entity client are assigned across multiple complex projects.
  • One of the world’s largest software companies, to develop predictive analytical applications for workforce management.

LogicBlox applications in production today support these clients’ multi-terabyte datasets and can elastically scale up to thousands of computing cores while performing best-in class predictive analytics.

SPLASH 2013 - October 26-31, 2013 - Indianapolis, Indiana

LogicBlox CEO Molham Aref has been invited to give a keynote presentation at the 2013 SPLASH conference. SPLASH is a premier venue for researchers and practitioners to exchange ideas on computing systems, programming languages, and their applications. Molham will speak about the opportunities presented by declarative programming languages in the age of the cloud, where distribution, parallelism, and concurrency is paramount to application performance.

ACM/VLDB 2013 - August 2013 - Riva Del Garda, Trento, Italy

LogicBlox team member TJ Green was program co-chair for the DBPL Symposium on Database Programming Languages at VLDB 2013.

MFCS 2013 - August 2013 - Klosterneuberg, Austria

Congratulations to LogicBlox team member Vince Barany on the acceptance of his paper, Rewriting Guarded Negation Queries, to the Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science 2013! In collaboration with researchers from University of Oxford and University of California, Santa Cruz, this paper describes foundations for sound optimizations on the guarded negation fragment of first order logic. We look forward to applying this work in the optimization of LogicBlox queries!

GraphLab Workshop 2013 - July 2013 - San Francisco, California

LogicBlox CEO Molham Aref presented at GraphLab Workshop 2013. His talk discussed the opportunities for using LogiQL as a foundation for probabilistic programming. Molham also presented some exciting and encouraging benchmarks of the LogicBlox smart database as a system for graph queries.

ACM/SIGMOD 2013 - June 2013 - New York, New York

Congratulations to LogicBlox team member Zografoula Vagena on the acceptance of her paper, Simulation of database-valued markov chains using SimSQL, to SIGMOD 2013! In collaboration with researchers from Rice University and IBM Research Almaden, the paper describes how to use a declarative SQL extension to specify, simulate, and query markov chains. We are excited to see more applications of the declarative, in-database approach to computing!

PLDI 2013 - June 2013 - Seattle, Washington

LogicBlox was delighted to sponsor the 2013 ACM SIGPLAN conference on Programming Languages Design and Implementation.
