Recognition highlights Hydrolix’s real-time data platform for powering large-scale streaming analytics
PORTLAND, OR, UNITED STATES, August 26, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Hydrolix, the real-time data platform for internet-scale operations, today announced it has won a 2026 Global Tech Award in the Analytics Technology category. The award recognizes organizations delivering exceptional innovation, impact, creativity, and ease of use in analytics technology.
The Global Tech Awards honor outstanding achievements by technology companies and professionals making a measurable impact with technology worldwide. This year’s program drew entries from technology companies across dozens of countries, with winners selected by a panel of senior technology leaders. Entries are evaluated on design, impact, creativity, and ease of use, with Best of Category honors reserved for organizations that meet the full judging criteria.
Hydrolix was recognized for its ability to ingest, index, and query massive volumes of streaming data in real time, while keeping months or years of that data economically accessible, a capability increasingly critical as organizations manage explosive data growth from security, observability, and streaming workloads.
“This recognition validates what we set out to build: a platform that gives teams real-time insight into their business without forcing painful trade-offs between speed, retention, and cost,” said Michael Cucchi, Chief Product and Marketing Officer at Hydrolix. “Being able to ingest data at internet scale, analyze in seconds, and provide long-term, cost-effective storage for it is exactly why we power some of the largest streaming events in the world. This award reflects the trust that our customers put in us to keep their most demanding workloads running at scale.”
“Analytics platforms usually get judged on how fast they return a query. The question that actually matters in security and operations is whether the data you needed was still there to query at all,” said Dr. Chase Cunningham (a.k.a. Dr. Zero Trust), a 20-year zero-trust consultant and advisor to Hydrolix. “Adversaries don’t operate on your retention window’s schedule, and dwell time is measured in months, not days. Retention isn’t a storage line item; it’s a detection capability. What this recognition reflects is the market finally measuring analytics the right way — not just speed on last week’s data, but whether a team can afford to keep the full picture and still get answers in seconds.”
This latest Global Tech Award marks Hydrolix’s tenth award recognition in 2026, which validates the platform’s ability to ingest and retain petabyte-scale data without the cost or performance limitations of legacy data warehouses and SIEM tools. Hydrolix has powered some of the largest streaming events worldwide, including the Super Bowl, Olympics, and World Cup, and serves as a security data layer for companies who want to retain historical data cost-effectively for years, query that data in seconds, and complement their SIEM tools.
The Global Tech Awards are part of a family of programs recognizing innovation across the technology industry, alongside the Global AI Awards, Global Enterprise Awards, and Global Trailblazer Awards.
