@TheEthanDing Love following the TextQL team’s journey and enthused about this product.

Your AI Agents can only analyze 1GB of data
Enterprises have 1,000,000x as much data
We fixed that...
It took 3 years and building an entirely new execution environment to pull this off.
TextQL lets AI agents analyze your ENTIRE enterprise data - not just the 0.0001% they can handle today.
Here's what makes it so different:
1. ALL your data, not samples. AI today: 1GB demos. Your reality: 350TB across 47 systems. TextQL: Everything. At once.
2. Real enterprise questions.ChatGPT writes poems. We answer why renewal rates dropped 3% after ERP upgrades.
3. No more sandbox limitations.Everyone else: Jupyter notebook with 10GB RAM. Us: A data center.
------------------------------
In 2021, I watched Fortune 500s spend millions on AI that could only analyze data that fits on a USB stick.
Today:
- We process 10+ petabytes daily
- Our biggest customer analyzes 100TB in real-time
- Average query spans 50+ data sources
And we just proved what everyone said was impossible - AI that can actually build a digital twin of your enterprise
------------------------------
To celebrate, we're giving away free data architecture assessments.
We'll show you exactly how much of your data is invisible to AI right now (spoiler: it's probably 99.9%).
Comment "TextQL" and we'll send you the assessment link.

This was actually genius — Apple released a “special” HP iPod in exchange for having iTunes preloaded on every HP computer
iTunes became the most popular music app in the world, and then evolved into the Windows client for connecting the iPhone… 🚀

This is how desperate Apple was in the early 2000s.

All about Redis
Do you know?
➸ Redis wasn't born in a lab, it was born from frustration. 😉
How?
➸ Back in 2009, Salvatore Sanfilippo needed a faster way to analyze website traffic for his startup.
Existing databases just couldn't keep up.
➸ So, he built his own solution => Redis (a super-fast data store that lives in your computer's memory.)
It was a game-changer, and it's still transforming how we handle data today.
📌 𝐋𝐞𝐭'𝐬 𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐢𝐧 𝐝𝐞𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐥.
Redis => REmote DIctionary Server
◾ initially designed to be a remote data structure server accessible over the network.
◾ open-source, in-memory data store.
◾ functions mainly as a key-value database
◾ but goes beyond by offering a variety of data structures like strings, lists, sets, sorted sets, hashes etc.
◾ primarily resides in RAM, providing incredibly fast read and write operations.
◾ options for persistence to disk, ensuring data durability.
𝐑𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐬 𝐟𝐚𝐬𝐭. 𝐖𝐡𝐲?
As we discussed,
Unlike traditional databases that primarily store data on disk, Redis keeps its entire dataset in memory (RAM).
This eliminates the latency associated with disk seeks and reads, allowing for very fast data access.
📌 𝐑𝐄𝐒𝐏 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐨𝐜𝐨𝐥 => REdis Serialization Protocol
◾ Redis uses its own binary-safe protocol called RESP for communication.
- designed for simplicity and efficiency
- less overhead as compared to text-based protocols like HTTP
📌 𝐄𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐋𝐨𝐨𝐩 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐈/𝐎 𝐌𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐢𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐱𝐢𝐧𝐠
◾ The heart of Redis => event loop. (single-threaded)
◾ continuously monitors file descriptors (sockets) for client connections and incoming commands.
◾ event-driven architecture, combined with I/O multiplexing (epoll, kqueue, or select) => allows Redis to handle thousands of concurrent clients efficiently without the overhead of multiple threads.
◾ non-blocking I/O operations
- not waiting for I/O operations to complete
- main thread remains responsive and can quickly process other commands
◾ if main thread encounters a time-consuming operation (like accessing the disk or network), it doesn't halt and wait => delegates the task to the operating system and registers a callback function to be executed once the operation completes.
📌 𝐌𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐲 𝐅𝐫𝐚𝐠𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐣𝐞𝐦𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐨𝐜
◾ Redis uses a memory allocator called jemalloc to manage memory efficiently.
◾ Jemalloc helps reduce memory fragmentation, which can occur when objects are allocated and freed repeatedly.
📌 𝐑𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐬 𝐨𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐯𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐨𝐮𝐬 𝐝𝐞𝐩𝐥𝐨𝐲𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐦𝐨𝐝𝐞𝐬.
◾ Standalone - A single instance of Redis.
◾ Cluster - A distributed implementation for scalability and high availability.
◾ Sentinel - High availability for standalone or replicated Redis instances.
◾ Replication - Master-replica setup for data redundancy and read scalability.

“I would go to the hospital and just sit there with the people who are using the stuff we were building and be like, ‘Hey, what makes your life easier? What do you want to see?’”
Pirate Wires@PirateWires
NEW TODAY: During the aftermath of October 7, Alex Spero was in his sophomore year at Cornell, and protests had started to consume a fair bit of daily life on campus. People would barge into classrooms and libraries, yelling into megaphones “‘From the river to the sea’ and all that good stuff,” Alex told us. Most of it was peaceful. But one day, the computer science major was eating mac and cheese in a kosher dining hall — his cherished “dairy Sundays” ritual, as he put it — when he got a barrage of texts asking if he was okay. “And I’m like, ‘Yeah, I’m doing great — I’m having my mac and cheese,’” he said. Alex and his friends looked online. Someone had just threatened to shoot up the Jewish dining hall. “And it was just like, ‘What do we do? Do we just leave? Do we go hide downstairs?’ And I was like, ‘Nah, I want my mac and cheese,’” he said. “So I just kept eating away, whatever.” The student who made the threat was arrested. But, as Alex put it, “the environment at that time was just not great to be in.” So after seeing Palantir’s announcement about Safe Haven, the internship program for college students tired of the dysfunction and antisemitism on their campuses Alex applied immediately — and got the offer on January 2. Soon, he started working for Palantir’s healthcare team. He learned to run meetings with clients and understand their problems in detail before coding solutions. “I would go to the hospital and just sit there with the people who are using the stuff we were building and be like, ‘Hey, what makes your life easier? What do you want to see?’” he said. It was a refreshing change from Cornell. Even the most relevant coursework seemed silly in retrospect. “Algorithms,” a famously rigorous class, taught Alex how to design algorithms, helpfully — but for esoteric purposes. Like assessing whether something was a Turing machine. “Yes, [those algorithms] can be applied, but if you’re not applying them, you just keep learning and learning and learning these things for no reason, and the majority of it you don’t even need,” he said. “I don’t think I’ll prove anything’s a Turing machine ever again in my existence on this earth.” Alex opted to continue his internship at Palantir through the summer. In August 2024, he accepted a full-time role — and dropped out of Cornell. He loved the work. He’d found a social home; the people were smart and kind. And he’d already finished almost all the CS requirements, so the rest of his time at university, at $90,000 per year, would’ve been filled with electives. So Alex took a step back from the societal expectations and, at 19 years old, made the decision for himself. Plus his mom approved — a bonus. “I don’t think there was much school had left to offer me,” he said. Today in Pirate Wires, @dodgeblake looks deeper into Palantir's early talent strategy with conversations with the company's Head of Talent Marge York and former Safe Haven intern Alex Spero. Inspired by the success of the Safe Haven program, the company's Meritocracy Fellowship goes one step further and invites high school grads to intern at the company. Blake is on the beat. Link is threaded. 👇
