REDWOOD CITY, Calif. , Nov. 12, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- November 12, 2024 – Alation, Inc. , the data intelligence company , today announced an expanded technical partner ecosystem and new and deepened integrations with AWS QuickSight, Azure Cosmos DB, Coalesce, Dremio, InfoArchive, Microsoft Power BI, OneStream, Qualytics, Starburst Galaxy, and TrustLogix.

As data and business leaders face rising pressure to demonstrate ROI from data and AI investments, they are turning to database, data transformation, and analytics cloud tools to maximize the potential of their enterprise data. These investments often add complexity, with critical data remaining siloed across departments. According to McKinsey , 72% of organizations now use AI in at least one business unit, requiring vast volumes of trusted, AI-ready data and increasing the demand for teams to manage diverse data sources and complex integrations to fuel AI models. Yet, with hundreds of isolated data sources scattered across the modern data stack, users struggle to find, understand, and govern the data needed to support AI and drive data-informed decisions.

Organizations need a single-pane-of-glass view that enables both technical and business users to access, manage, and govern data effectively at scale. Alation's expanded connectivity across the modern data stack and cloud ecosystems enables enterprises to build a best-of-breed data environment that unifies information across an organization.

“An organization's ability to stay agile and adopt new technologies depends on the quality and accessibility of its data,” said David Chao, CMO and Head of Technology Alliances at Alation.“Alation is transforming complex data stacks into unified, platform-based ecosystems that make trusted data a first-class resource for informed decision-making, accelerating time-to-insight and reducing the burden on data and AI teams.
