    AI Agents in the Enterprise: Key Insights from the Databricks State of AI Agents Report

    Everyone is talking about AI agents. But very few conversations are grounded in real data. Databricks just released their new State of AI Agents report, and it gives a clear picture of how enterprises are actually using AI today, what is working, and where things are headed next. I sat down with Kunal Marwah, Mason Force, and Chengyin Eng from Databricks to break down what stood out to them from the report and what they are seeing directly with customers. We talked about why companies are moving from to multi-agent systems, how teams are choosing their first real business use cases, and how agents are driving the need for a new type of database called Lakebase. We also discussed what separates teams that get AI into production from those stuck in endless pilots. Governance, evaluation, and clear alignment to business outcomes came up again and again. If you are leading data, AI, or product initiatives, this conversation gives a practical look at what enterprise adoption actually looks like today and what leaders should focus on next. I have shared the link to the full report in the comments if you want to dig into the data yourself.

    Reltio's Hockey Stick Growth: CRO Alyson Discusses the Journey to $185 Million ARR

    Reltio crossed $185M in ARR and saw 58% growth in the second half of the year. That kind of acceleration in an enterprise platform signals strong market pull. At the DataDriven Conference 2026, I sat down with Alyson Welch, CRO of Reltio, to talk about what customers are actually asking for in the age of AI. Alyson owns the full customer journey, from acquisition to support, and also leads the partner ecosystem. Her lens is simple. If the customer does not see value in their data, nothing else matters. One insight stood out. Enterprises are drowning in applications. One former CIO shared she had 1,500 enterprise apps to manage. That means data is locked everywhere. The real demand today is not just dashboards or models. It is a trusted, unified data layer that sits between enterprise systems and AI. That is where Reltio is focused. Bringing accuracy, trust, and unification so companies can actually use their data across environments. We also discussed agentic workflows. In an agent-driven world, your data foundation cannot be average. Every automated decision depends on it. This is not just a tech shift. It is a cultural shift. Leaders now have to think about how humans and AI agents work together and how to build capability across both. The momentum reflects this shift. This conversation was about trust, scale, and what it really takes to lead in the AI era. #data #ai #datadriven #reltio #theravitshow

    How ForeSite360 and Relio Saved the Federal Government Over $100 Million Annually

    What happens when AI is applied to real mission problems, not just demos? At Data Driven 2026, I sat down with Lisa Wolff from ForeSite360 to talk about how they are using AI, together with Reltio, to solve complex challenges in highly regulated environments like the federal government. One example stood out immediately. A deployment of their platform, Foresight 360, built on top of Reltio, has already helped a government agency save more than $100M every year. That kind of impact only happens when the data foundation is right. Lisa made an important point during our conversation. AI only works when the context around the data is well understood and properly managed. Without that, even the most advanced models struggle to deliver meaningful outcomes. We also discussed how large organizations are moving away from slow, traditional data modernization approaches. The pace of change is accelerating quickly, and Lisa expects some major shifts in the next six months as enterprises adopt more agent-driven systems. What I also found interesting was how these ideas translate beyond government. Foresight is applying similar approaches to improve experiences for seniors interacting with public programs and even the guest journey in hospitality. The real power of AI shows up when it solves personal, real-world problems. It was a fascinating conversation about how AI, data context, and agent systems are starting to deliver real impact. hashtag#data hashtag#ai hashtag#datadriven hashtag#reltio hashtag#theravitshow

    PWC and Reltio: Driving Value with Agentic AI and MDM

    Everyone talks about AI agents. Very few talk about what they actually change inside enterprises. At the DataDriven Conference, Ravit Jain sat down with Rajeev Krishnan from PwC to unpack what the agentic shift really means for data, governance, and Master Data Management. PwC and Reltio have been working together for years, but the conversation is now moving beyond implementations to real business outcomes. Rajeev shared how their Agent OS ecosystem is being integrated with Reltio to deploy agents that handle tasks data teams have struggled with for years. Things like resolving match queues, auto-classifying records, and improving data quality without constant manual effort. What makes this important is simple. Enterprises already know they need trusted master data. The challenge has always been the operational burden required to maintain it. Agentic AI is starting to change that equation by reducing operational cost while strengthening the data foundation needed for AI-driven decisions. We also discussed what leaders are wrestling with in 2026. Two themes stood out. First, governance is no longer just about data. It is about governing data in the age of AI. Second, organizations are facing a real tension between using data to power AI and using AI to fix their data. The right path depends on the use case, not a one size fits all strategy. It was a grounded conversation about how enterprises are moving from AI experiments to operational impact. #data #ai #datadriven #reltio #theravitshow
