The skyrocketing prices of computing costs are a constant challenge for all sized organizations and in all industries. Granulate addresses this problem with a solution that can adapt to all operating systems through the best streamlined way for customer applications through learning resource usage patterns and data flow patterns of applications at the operational level.

We allow companies to attain more with what they already have (existing servers), and pay less,” said co-founder Asaf Ezra, who serves as the company’s CEO. “In the current reality of business and financial instability, we are seeing the growing need for our product that saves time, money, and resources. Optimizing computing systems means streamlining entire businesses.”
