Matillion exists because we believe in a few fundamental truths:
We provide a complete data integration and transformation solution that is purpose-built for the cloud and cloud data warehouses.
Matthew Scullion and Ed Thompson, believing that the future of business intelligence is in the cloud, leave their comfortable jobs to start their own company.
On day one, in the countryside outside of Manchester, UK, Ed starts writing code for the main builder for Matillion's first product, whilst Matthew creates the core values on which the company will be founded.
Matillion provides turn-key business intelligence analytics as a service in the AWS cloud. In other words, they create dozens of data warehouses in the cloud.
