“We are excited to have Navin at the helm of Stardog’s product development and management efforts,” said Kendall Clark, CEO Stardog. “His extensive data management experience coupled with his strategic business acumen are a perfect fit to help drive the next stage of our growth and solidify Stardog’s strategic vision for data integration in the hybrid multicloud world.”
