The new Denodo Platform 9.0 enables intelligent data delivery with AI-enabled natural language queries, AI-ready data capabilities, and simplified data preparation

PALO ALTO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Denodo, the leader in data management, announces the Denodo Platform 9.0. This latest version of the Denodo Platform supports AI-driven natural language queries for intelligent data delivery without requiring users to know SQL. It also provides large language models (LLMs) with real-time, managed data from across the enterprise, powering Retrieval Enhanced Generation (RAG) to derive trusted, insightful results from generative AI applications, while also providing a host of powerful new capabilities to further enhance data management. By introducing such a high level of intelligence to data delivery, Denodo Platform 9.0 takes logical data management to the next level of AI and advanced analytics to meet user expectations.

Ryan Fattini, Vice President of Data & Analytics at City Furniture, said: "We think Denodo 9.0 will be a game-changer. Self-service data preparation and generative AI integration will enable users of all backgrounds to effortlessly customize and use datasets, Iceberg and Delta integrations enhance analytics, and advanced security governance and inspection tools improve oversight and compliance. ”

With the new features of Denodo Platform 9.0, the system learns as users interact with data and automatically recommends the best data to use based on each user's immediate needs. Users don't have to stop and think about what data to use or where to find it, which makes them much more productive. Users can type queries using natural language and not only get immediate results, but also get a detailed understanding of how the query was structured. In the underlying structure of the system, the platform is able to optimize multi-channel data transfer and reduce costs by saving time because the system knows the fastest way and automates deployment. Denodo Platform 9.0 will further enhance compliance by designing more advanced security measures built into the platform.

Fern Halper, vice president and director of advanced analytics research at TDWI, said, "TDWI believes that businesses that are constantly striving to unify diverse data will leverage both physical and logical data architectures. Denodo Platform 9.0 promises to provide strong support for data structures that adapt to both approaches, and to increase the flexibility of data structures with enhanced AI capabilities to support more different user roles. ”
