Akamas, an AI-driven platform for cloud and application optimization, was founded in 2019 as a spinoff from Moviri. The platform automates operations, helping businesses enhance performance and reduce costs. The company's name is rooted in Greek mythology, specifically referencing Akamas, a figure known for intelligence and strategic thinking – traits vital for modern enterprises striving to optimize cloud environments. CEO Luca Forni shares that the name transitioned from initial codenames like 'M.A.S' to 'A.K.A. MAS', reflecting significant evolution and branding considerations during development.
"The name Akamas is inspired by Greek mythology, a figure known for his intelligence and strategic thinking… qualities that resonate deeply with our mission."
"Just as Akamas thrived by adjusting to ever-changing battle conditions, modern enterprises must continually optimize their cloud environments to stay competitive."
"Initially codenamed 'M.A.S'-short for Machine Learning Autotuning System, we realized that 'MAS' wasn't quite fitting as an official brand."
"The alpha version distributed to early adopters was given the temporary name 'A.K.A. MAS'-short for 'Also Known As MAS.'"
