allowing everyone to collaborate regardless of their skill level,” says Benali.
For Dataiku and its enterprise customers moving along the AI journey, data is key. It is for this reason, that Dataiku works closely with AWS, Microsoft, Google Cloud, Snowflake, Databricks, and others, because they are the modern day custodians of data through their cloud platforms.
Since its customer’ s data is resident in these platforms, Dataiku works closely with these players to access their data.“ The idea is to have access to the data wherever they are. Dataiku is not moving data, and it is not hosting data. We are just connecting to the data sources, and to have access to them wherever they are.”
Since most global enterprises have adopted a multi-cloud strategy, by having access to all data repository players, Dataiku is helping to meet its enterprise customer’ s data objectives and data requirements.
“ That is why those partners and every customer loves us. Most of them will use some Snowflake, some Databricks, some AWS, and we will just connect to the data where ever they are,” says Benali.
While enterprises need to try to put their data in order and secure it, Dataiku builds the bridges to access that data.
Dataiku also never dictates to its enterprise customers which technology to use.“ We will never tell a customer to choose a technology or another. We are the skeleton, we are the backbone of their data strategy, which will connect to every technology,” says Benali.
As an example, since LLMs are being created every week, as an Universal AI solution, Dataiku needs to be able to connect and work with every LLM of the market.
A key discussion that Dataiku engages with its enterprise customers is governance and to make them feel comfortable with the usage of their enterprise data and AI. No enterprise can go big while using AI if they are not feeling secure about the usage of their data, points out Benali
“ Our job as a company is to provide them with this comfort, with security by adding a governance layer, which will ensure regulatory compliance.”
Partnership and alliance ecosystem
Global and regional enterprises are using plenty of technologies and this trend is here to stay. For Dataiku it is critical to always remain positioned and available as a backbone that is able to connect and integrate with its customer’ s environment.
