We are super excited to announce Sherloq’s strategic partnership with CastorDoc, a leading enterprise data intelligence platform, that enhances trust and visibility in your data. 

This collaboration is born from a shared vision to empower teams of all kinds to manage and analyze data independently, creating a culture of informed decision-making across various sectors. 

Here’s an in-depth look at why this partnership is a game-changer for data-driven organizations.

Self-Served Analytics Starts with Organized Data

It’s no secret that with recent GenAI advancements, the ability to create self-served analytics is now closer than ever. 

However, being able to establish a truly self-served motion depends on an organization's ability to manage, document, and govern its internal data. 

Why? Let’s take a look at a few use cases:

• How is each business metric (Active User, Retention, Churn) defined per product, vertical, team?

• How is it represented in the data, meaning what tables, fields, and schemes do I need to query to get the “correct” data?

• How do we ensure the data is up-to-date, and that each user is only exposed to the data they’re supposed to access?

All of these questions can be answered with Metadata platforms that enable organizations to easily manage and keep track of their data and metrics.

Building an Infrastructure that Supports Self-Served Analytics

CastorDoc + Sherloq act as the foundation for self-service analytics within organizations.

Our approach enables large language models (LLMs) to take as input each organization’s unique mix of data, SQL, and metrics. CastorDoc's data catalog plays a crucial role in enhancing this self-service approach by organizing and making data easily searchable across the organization. This platform allows users to quickly find and understand the data they need, without sifting through complex databases or requesting assistance from Engineering/IT departments.

Essentially, when teams use Sherloq, they’re continuously cataloging and documenting their ad-hoc SQL seamlessly as part of their regular workflow. This method not only simplifies data management but also embeds it naturally into daily operations, making it easier for everyone to access and utilize data effectively.

To that extent, Sherloq acts as the “Data Catalog for SQL Queries” and can be added as an extra layer on top of CastorDoc’s unique Data Cataloging capabilities, placing SQL at the heart of the self-service strategy. 

CastorDoc + Sherloq enables organizations to build the infrastructure needed for their self-served analytics.

Going forward

We’re beyond excited to launch this partnership that will make data management effortless for our customers. 

By helping more teams use data on their own, we are helping organizations not only organize their data operations more efficiently but also gain a competitive edge in their respective markets. 

Keep an eye on us as we continue making data a key part of achieving business success.
