nLite metadata generator now available to capital markets participants via DIH.

Schaumburg, Illinois, Austin, Texas, 24 June 2025: XtremeData, a provider of next-generation advanced data profiling and quality solutions, today announced a collaboration with Data In Harmony (DIH), a global financial data provider, to bring its flagship product, nLite, to institutional market participants.

nLite helps firms onboard, clean, and understand their data—no matter where or how it is stored—without sampling, moving, or copying the data. Built for exabyte-scale data, nLite scans files and databases anywhere to generate complete metadata in a single scan of source data – something that is not possible using SQL. The platform is accessible through a web-based GUI or APIs, offering both ease of use and automation.

Key Benefits of nLite:

  • Reduces time and cost to onboard, prepare, and analyze data
  • Scales effortlessly across hybrid cloud and on-premise environments
  • Improves data quality through deep profiling and drift detection
  • Eliminates coding, sampling, and guesswork—delivering real-time, actionable metadata

This agreement makes nLite available to capital markets participants through DIH’s extensive network of buy-side firms and service providers.

“We are very excited to add XtremeData’s nLite to our offering,” says Tom Myers, founder of DIH Solutions. “Whether you work for a buy- or sell-side firm, data provider, exchange, or other service provider, you are likely ingesting and processing massive amounts of data each day. You’re managing multiple data sources, file formats, databases, public and private clouds… it can be overwhelming to truly understand your data. Finally, there is a tool that tells you what is actually in your data. nLite truly reduces the time and cost of onboarding, processing, and using data.”

DIH helps firms, including investment banks and hedge funds, find and onboard the reliable financial and alternative data they need, enabling them to improve data quality and reduce data costs. In an environment of growing emphasis on data quality and a push by management to hold down costs, DIH was founded to offer an alternative to legacy data vendors whose data is often incomplete, inaccurate, and expensive, and is licensed under restrictive terms and conditions.

“Unanticipated data can break pipelines, corrupt quality, compromise model accuracy, and create serious operational challenges,” said Jay Desai, co-founder of XtremeData. “The legacy approach of addressing these issues post-processing is no longer sustainable. At XtremeData, we believe the next wave of data-driven success requires full visibility into comprehensive, accurate metadata — before data enters the pipeline. With nLite, we empower teams to detect and remediate issues early, reduce cycle times from days to minutes, and deliver trusted data at enterprise scale.”
