On-prem data for affiliates

I had a conversation with someone at NEXT.io - The World’s iGaming Community in Valletta today.

Quick shoutout to sponsors StatsDrone and FTDx.

That conversation involved modeling of data, AI and why there is a movement happening towards on-prem data.

I don't have permission from the guy to tag him but it wasn't a conversation I was expecting to have at any conference.

I will state that this concept of a movement towards companies wanting to protect their data via on-premises is something I've heard a few times.

I believe I've heard this on a few AI and data podcasts as well as the 20VC podcast with Harry Stebbings.

A long story short, he believed that bigger companies will start to cancel contracts with companies that don't offer an on-prem solution.

At StatsDrone, we launched our on-prem version of StatsDrone since December 2024. This solution is without an interface but does the job of helping to aggregate data.

I am thinking, this will become a growing trend but might take a few years to adopt. I do think this could cause a major disruption in which companies will get future business. Other companies that don't adapt, will be left behind.
