DataGravity

DataGravity was a data management and security software company founded in April 2012 in Nashua, New Hampshire by Paula Long (co-founder of EqualLogic) and John Joseph. It pioneered the "data-aware storage" category, shipping hybrid storage arrays that indexed, classified, and audited data in place so that security, governance, and search became properties of the storage tier rather than bolt-on tooling. The company raised venture funding from Andreessen Horowitz, General Catalyst, CRV and others, won Best of Show at VMworld 2014, and began shipping in October 2014. In February 2016 it pivoted from appliances to a software-only behavioral data-security product. DataGravity ceased operations in June 2017 and its assets were assigned to a liquidator; HyTrust acquired the technology and roughly twenty employees, folding the product into HyTrust CloudAdvisor (HyTrust was itself acquired by Entrust in 2021). The datagravity.com domain no longer belongs to the company and now 301-redirects to an unrelated business (anomalo.com). No public API, developer portal, documentation, or machine-readable specification survives, so there is no API surface for this profile to describe.

human only

Index entry only — little beyond a description and a link, and nothing machine-readable enough for an agent to act on without a human reading the site first.

Kin Score

DataGravity is tracked in the API Evangelist network. This page is the human-readable profile that sits on top of the machine-readable index we maintain at apis.io.

Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — DataGravity scores 6.8/100 (minimal), with a separate agent-readiness read of 0/100 (human only). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.

Kin Score

This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance.

DataGravity is in the network as a tracked entity. We haven't yet indexed a public API surface for it — when one is published, the artifacts, score, and agent-readiness read will appear here automatically. The source repository is where that profile is built.
