SkySQL Raises $6.6M for Conversational AI in your Database

SkySQL secured $6.6M in new funding from Eniac Ventures Good Capital and WTI to redefine cloud database with AI and serverless features. SkySQL is designed to empower developers. It now allows the seamless creation and delivery of applications that provide accurate, natural-language insights from enterprise data. Meanwhile, its serverless technology scales resources automatically to handle even the most unexpected workloads. SkySQL, which has over 40 global customers, provides a cloud-native, secure solution for MySQL and MariaDB. This makes it easier for modern businesses to manage their data and access it with confidence.

SkySQL founders Nithin Rao and Jags Ramnarayan bring decades of experience in databases, cloud platforms, and analytics technology. They have collectively been co-founders of five startups with successful exits. These include notable companies Autonomic (a cloud platform for connected car data acquired by Ford), Definitive (an AI-driven data analysis platform acquired by Groq), GemStone Systems (an in-memory database management system acquired by VMware).

With our AI Semantic Agent Framework, we’ve integrated natural-language interaction directly into a database, delivering a significantly higher accuracy, said Nithin RAO, CEO of SkySQL. As companies increasingly rely on AI to make critical decisions, it’s essential that they can trust the answers they get from their data. Our goal is to help companies feel confident in the insights that drive their most important business decisions.

Complexity and not optimized for AI are the main problems with today’s databases

Although many companies are exploring the development of gen AI apps powered by operational data but achieving accurate, reliable results remains a challenge. It is difficult to connect AI applications to enterprise data because of hallucinations, low precision, and complex integrations between AI tools and vector database. This can create governance issues, as sensitive data is spread across silos. These apps generate unpredictable workloads that force over-provisioning of cloud databases, which leads to waste. Sudden spikes in demand can still cause outages.

Harnessing AI for Operational Data insights

SkySQL, an advanced DBaaS Platform that simplifies cloud data management and integrates AI natively. This empowers businesses to unlock insights from their operational data. SkySQL combines traditional database functionality with cutting edge AI to enable accurate, secure and reliable AI responses via a conversational API.

SkySQL’s Semantic Agents, and SkyCopilot AI Assistant offer accurate natural language insight without compromising data safety. SkySQL does not just support basic vector search and chat tools. It unifies essential AI components such as vector databases, large language models, and other AI components into a seamless solution. This eliminates the need to move customer data to external systems. Sasa Skoko CTO of Campus Cloud () says that

SkySQL transforms our Student Information System. Users can access precise insights with the AI-powered chat interface by simply asking questions. CEOs can quickly review enrollment trends while administrators can drill into specifics with no complex queries. It’s like having an assistant who understands all of our student data, allowing us to make better decisions and freeing up IT resource.

SkySQL’s serverless option provides instant auto-scaling for AI-driven workloads. This includes scaling to zero when inactive, ensuring cost-efficiency and readiness for workload spikes. Key features include

Deep AI Integration: Seamlessly integrates advanced AI capabilities including SkyCopilot for query optimizing, troubleshooting and performance tuning as well as Semantic Agents for building generative AI powered apps that deliver accurate data-driven insights and significantly enhance productivity. Serverless Architecture: Serverless capabilities allow instant auto-scaling and scaling down to zero. This reduces costs by ensuring that you only pay for resources you use. Multi-Cloud Flexibility Operates in 40+ regions globally, and multiple cloud providers. This allows for true multi-cloud versatility.
