Ahana

Ahana was a venture-backed SaaS company founded in 2020 and headquartered in San Mateo, California, that provided a managed, cloud-native offering of PrestoDB — the open source distributed SQL query engine originally created at Facebook — positioned as the query and analytics layer of the open data lakehouse. Ahana raised roughly $32M in seed and Series A funding from investors including GV (Google Ventures), Lux Capital, Third Point Ventures, Leslie Ventures, and Liberty Global Ventures, and was a leading contributor and steward of the Presto Foundation. In April 2023 Ahana was acquired by IBM, which joined the Presto Foundation and folded Ahana's SaaS Presto capabilities into IBM watsonx.data. The independent Ahana product and developer surface no longer exist: the ahana.io domain now 301-redirects to https://www.ibm.com/products/watsonx-data. This profile is retained as a historical network record for the acquired company; there is no live first-party API to enrich.

Ahana is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Enterprise, Presto, PrestoDB, and Data Lakehouse.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/ahana: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
