THE COMPANY topLog is three entrepreneurs from three countries who will have three doctorates in computer science.
And they have a single mission: to develop a company that makes life easier for network system administrators.
“TopLog turns system data into intelligence that can save you and your company time and money and prevent data loss,” explained Ozge Yeloglu, the president of the young Halifax-based company.
The company was developed from the doctoral thesis of Tokunbo Makanju, a Nigerian who received his PhD in computer science from Dalhousie University last year. Various people within the department believed the work had commercial potential, so he was joined by two doctoral candidates — Yeloglu, a native of Turkey, and Patrick LaRoche of Canada — to develop into a company.
Here’s how it works: companies of all sizes have active computer networks, which sometimes go down. Network administrators must then manually dig into the log files on the network and figure out what happened.
