UNIONDALE, NY / ACCESS Newswire / September 9, 2025 / Marquis Who's Who honors Richard Winter for expertise in data architecture. As chief executive officer and principal consultant of WinterCorp, Mr. Winter has spent more than three decades advising executives on high-stakes decisions involving large-scale data analytics and artificial intelligence (AI).

WinterCorp's Legacy Since 1992

Since establishing WinterCorp in 1992, Mr. Winter has led the Tyngsboro, Massachusetts-based firm in serving major corporations and government agencies. The company has been retained on roughly 50 occasions for complex projects. The firm provides platform evaluations and recommendations that have helped clients build or modernize large-scale data systems.

WinterCorp concentrates on assisting organizations that develop or upgrade large-scale data lakehouses. These systems are essential to businesses that use analytics and AI as key competitive tools. Building a large data lakehouse can be compared to constructing a digital skyscraper. In other words, a strong foundation and structural integrity are critical for long-term success, and because of their large scale, these systems require special skills and know-how.

Mr. Winter's projects often involve substantial investment and carry significant technical challenges. One example included work with an aerospace contractor on a $1 billion federal system. WinterCorp created and executed a testing process to determine which database platform can meet demanding requirements. Multiple vendors participated, but only one met the criteria. "We recommended that product and the system was successfully implemented," Mr. Winter says.

Specialized Focus on Large and Complex Systems

"When I was ready to start my own business, I drew on the expertise I developed," Mr. Winter says. Before founding WinterCorp, he spent 23 years with the Computer Corporation of America. The company developed database management software for over 1,000 of the largest systems worldwide. Contributions to product development and years of hands-on technical work-built expertise that later shaped the consulting approach at WinterCorp.

Mr. Winter focuses on a narrow set of organizations with specialized requirements. This niche approach distinguishes the practice from general data consulting firms. "I decided early on that I was going to focus exclusively on this area of large-scale and high-complexity systems - the skyscrapers of the world of data and analytics," he says. As a result, the company provides detailed analysis and quantitative evaluations that address questions about long-term costs, technical feasibility and system performance.

Recognized Among Top Architecture Data Firms

CEO Review Magazine, CIO Bulletin and CIO Review have placed WinterCorp among the top five data architecture firms for five consecutive years. The firm's evaluations differ from most in the industry by employing quantitative methods and realistic large scale testing to reveal scalability problems and project operational costs over several years of use. The organization also assesses a platform's ability to meet unique requirements before making significant investments.

In addition to leading WinterCorp, Mr. Winter serves as a faculty member at the Data Warehousing Institute and as research director for the Analyst + Consultant Advisory Network. Membership in the Association for Computing Machinery reflects his continued involvement with the broader technical community. He was recently elected as a Fellow by BARC, a leading industry analyst firm based in Germany.

Mr. Winter holds a bachelor's degree in industrial engineering from the University of Michigan College of Engineering, where he was elected to the Alpha Pi Mu honor society. As an accomplished data architect consultant, he attributes his professional success to in-depth technical expertise, a focus on quality and the ability to solve complex problems for clients with unusual and demanding needs.

Leadership in Tech and Local Causes

"For the last few years, I've been focusing on the intersection of artificial intelligence and large-scale data," Mr. Winter says. Upcoming plans include expanding WinterCorp's services to assist leading enterprises in making critical decisions about integrating artificial intelligence - including generative, agentic and causal AI -- with enterprise data to achieve target business results.

Outside of the workplace, community involvement matters to Mr. Winter. Civic engagement includes serving as the John Payne Music Center Treasurer in Brookline. This role reflects his dedication to supporting local organizations outside the data consulting sector.
