Dremio has launched a new, agentic AI-powered version of its data lakehouse aimed at making it faster and easier to operationalize data for developing AI and analytics applications. Released on Thursday, Dremio Cloud is a self-managed platform that autonomously learns, adapts and optimizes performance to save data engineers and other data experts from monotonous, time-consuming […]
In the past decade, there has been a Cambrian-sized explosion of new analytics-oriented databases and query engines, yet the protocols these systems use to transfer data among one another were built for mining row-oriented transfers from transactional systems. It’s a mismatch that slows down transfers and consumes excessive CPU usage. Many of these analytical systems use ODBC (Open Database Connectivity), […]
“A flaw of warehouses is that you need to move all your data into them so you can keep it going, and for a lot of organisations that’s a big hassle,” says Will Martin, EMEA Evangelist at Dremio. “It can take a long time, it can be expensive, and you ultimately can end up ripping […]
The rise of artificial intelligence (AI) has reshaped the way enterprises think about data. AI agents, machine learning models, and modern analytics all depend on timely access to high-quality, well-governed data. This is why the data lakehouse architecture has become so critical, as it unifies the flexibility and scalability of data lakes with the reliability […]
This week’s list shines a light on the companies with the most impressive, vast and innovative data lake storage systems today, including AWS, IBM & Google A data lake is a centralised storage repository that can hold vast amounts of raw data in its native format until it is needed for analysis. Unlike traditional data warehouses that […]
Agentic AI is radically transforming software, moving beyond simple text generation models. They can reason, plan and execute complex tasks by interacting with external systems and APIs. But for most organizations, this powerful potential remains just out of reach, because the most advanced AI models are often isolated from the very tools, data and internal systems where […]
On Friday, September 19, we transformed our weekly Jam Session into a full-day of Super Sessions! Join us at http://insightjam.com to catch the next Jam Session. With Gartner predicting that 60% of AI projects will fail due to inadequate data preparation, this panel explores what “AI-ready data” actually means beyond traditional “good data” practices. Our […]
Beyond the hype of ever-larger language models, the practical challenge for business leaders is connecting AI to their core systems to deliver tangible results. For most organizations, AI’s promise remains unrealized due to the disconnect between powerful models and the critical business tools trapped within enterprise systems. The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is the emerging standard […]

Data has taken a new position in the spotlight as the most important part of using AI. If the organization is using corrupt data, insights will vary wildly, and misinformation can damage the company’s reputation. Poor data quality costs organizations at least $12.9 million per year on average, according to Gartner research from 2020. Data […]

AI developers face many challenges that can be easily addressed by embedding a semantic layer in the data platform. For example, imagine a developer building a model to better predict customer churn. They reach out to the sales and finance departments to obtain datasets containing customer sales history, along with information on payment status, contracts, […]
