Mr. Dysart, along with his partner Norbert Hom, set out to rethink every component of data warehousing: how data is gathered and distributed; how data is stored and accessed; how data is used to create knowledge. The results of their vision are demonstrated every day, as some of the largest data giants on the globe rely on Corworks to increase their business intelligence. Early adopters included CIT, MasterCard, and Equifax. These customers were instrumental in the complete development of Corworks software as they pushed Corworks engineers to imagine and implement solutions optimized for the rigorous demands of big data and the speed of new millennium business.

Corworks Knowledge Server was first released in 1996. Corworks Relationship Builder was released in May of 1997. And Corworks Data Exchange made its debut in March 2001. Among the accolades Corworks is most proud is that their customers have enjoyed enormous success and return on investment by implementing Corworks products.

Corworks set out to create software solutions to meet the coming big data explosion. Businesses around the globe can take refuge in the fact that as the demands of big data management grow,
Corworks is already there with a solution.

Bringing over 18 years of experience in the development of customer information products and systems for the financial services industry, Mr. Dysart, along with Norbert Hom, set out to rethink every component of data warehousing. Their focus: how to best handle the coming data explosion.

Today, Mr. Dysart’s energy is focused on continued innovation and growing Corworks to become the global leader in big data management software.

Mr. Dysart received his degree in Mathematics from Dalhousie University in Nova Scotia, Canada.

Mr. Farrell came to Corworks after over nine years in the financial services area, specifically the credit card and investment banking sectors, where he headed up several large IT data warehousing efforts within the corporate systems organization. His intimate understanding of the obstacles involved in handling big data brought him to Corworks. Mr. Farrell jumped at the opportunity to improve data warehousing for businesses by being active in Corworks’ product development.

As one of Corworks’ company founders, Mr. Farrell took on the role as SVP of Sales and Marketing. He focused on generating new sales, building strategic partnerships, and positioning the company and products for future growth. Mr. Farrell quickly distinguished himself for his ability to understand the client's needs and provide the proper recommendations, translating technology into business solutions. In his new role as CEO, Mr. Farrell continues to build upon the foundation and success of Corworks’ early adopters with the goal of building Corworks into a global market leader in the big data management arena.

Mr. Farrell has a Bachelor’s degree in Applied Mathematics and Statistics from Stony Brook University and a Master’s degree in Information Systems from Polytechnic University.

Mr. Hom's programming career began in the defense industry, where he was responsible for building analysis models for advanced missile components including the Patriot missile – he is literally a "rocket scientist." Mr. Hom then went on to business programming where his programming creations include trading systems for the Chicago Mercantile Exchange.

Mr. Hom has never backed down from a technology challenge. In the early 1990s, Mr. Hom teamed up with Andrew Dysart and became focused on the challenge of managing data’s exponential growth. Hom and Dysart are the driving force behind the design and development of the Corworks Knowledge Server and Corworks’ compression technology. Mr. Hom's skill and innovation can be seen throughout the Corworks suite of big data management solutions.

Mr. Hom has a Master’s degree in Mathematics and Operations Research from New York University.

Before joining Corworks, Mr. Barron spent 12 years with Prudential. As head of IT Architecture for the Asset Management Group, Mr. Barron’s range of responsibilities spanned many products and large applications, from PCs to mainframes. Keenly aware that increased computer chip speed is choked at the input/output level, Mr. Barron was excited by the notion of being able to access compressed data and alter it in the compressed state. Mr. Barron saw compression as the best way to handle the big data explosion and joined Corworks.

With 20 years of experience in technology architecture, Mr. Barron plays a significant role in developing the company's business strategy and has complete life-cycle responsibility for the company's products and services, including development, maintenance, quality assurance, documentation, customer service and training.

Mr. Barron studied Mathematics and Physics and spent his college years as a surveyor assisting the Camp David Peace Treaty in the Middle East. Mr. Barron completed post-graduate studies in Computer Science in Bristol, England.

Mr. Robbins came to Corworks to grow a world class services organization in support of Corworks' breakthrough suite of big data management software. Since his days at Prudential, Mr. Robbins has worked on data warehouses (long before they were even called data warehouses). He was drawn by the opportunity to offer Corworks' solutions because they were created from the ground up to solve the most intractable problems faced by data warehousing efforts today: how to build a data warehouse that can house all of the data that a client wants, while at the same time offering flexibility, performance, and a project methodology capable of quickly producing success and ROI.

Mr. Robbins is well-versed in creating solutions that meet clients' real world needs. His duties have ranged from a programmer/analyst to a project leader to strategist on international projects. Mr. Robbins has also worked together with Mr. Dysart and Mr. Hom since their days at Prudential in the late '80s. They worked together again on successful implementations for GE in 1995-1996.

Mr. Robbins has a Bachelors of Science in computer science from Livingston College/Rutgers University where he graduated with honors (minor in Mathematics). He also went to night school at Seton Hall University Law School to earn his Juris Doctorate and has been admitted to the New Jersey Bar Association.
