Krishnaraj's appointment comes at a pivotal time for Hasura, to spearhead the transition of its metadata-driven solution from REST and GraphQL APIs to new protocols that will be required to usher in applications and agent development in the AI era. Hasura has seen impressive revenue growth and customer acquisition in the last 12 months, with 10 Fortune 100 brands using Hasura as part of their mission-critical services.

Hasura has significantly expanded its platform’s capabilities this year, having recently announced innovations in the Hasura Data Delivery Network (DDN) that enable unified access to distributed data with a unique meta-data-driven approach.

Hasura is seeing strong momentum in the AI ecosystem, with leading GenAI startups like Leonardo.AI leveraging it to accelerate their time to market. This underscores the critical role that Hasura will play in the AI space by unblocking real-time data access to the applications.
