OSI was created by Snowflakein partnership with leading industry ecosystem partners across multiple domains and industries, including business intelligence (BI), data governance, data engineering, AI, financial services, and manufacturing.
Couchbase announced the general availability of Couchbase AI Services, a suite of capabilities that enables enterprises to build, deploy, and govern agentic AI applications with the security, performance, and reliability required for production environments. By bringing together data and models in a single unified platform, Couchbase eliminates the complexity and fragmentation that have kept AI applications from moving from prototype to production.
Draup announced that its real-time workforce and labor market data is now accessible through the Model Context Protocol (MCP), enabling LLM-based assistants to pull live skills, roles, and market insights directly into AI workflows. Through this integration, enterprises can connect their AI ecosystems to Draup’s workforce intelligence through a simple, standards-based MCP configuration without custom APIs or manual data pipelines.
Horizon Quantum Computing announced the debut of Beryllium, a hardware-agnostic, high-level language for programming quantum computers. Beryllium is an object-oriented language, allowing developers to start with simple classical and quantum building blocks and progressively create richer, higher-level structures by reusing and extending what they have already defined. This layering of abstraction is designed to empower developers to think in terms of information structure rather than qubits and low-level processing details.
Huwise launched Huwy, its new AI data exploration agent. Deployed on client data product marketplaces, the intuitive AI agent transforms how users find and explore available data, making discovering relevant information feel as natural as having a conversation. This builds trust and increases data consumption by all employees across the organization.
Immuta announced product updates to help address how enterprise data governance is evolving to meet the demands of AI. Key updates and highlights include ReviewAssist 2.0, which uses LLM-based topic modeling to interpret why a user (or AI agent) wants data; new, viewless Redshift integration; subscription policies for Delta sharing, and more.
LangGrant (earlier known as Windocks) announced the launch of the LEDGE MCP server, a platform that enables LLMs to reason across multiple databases at scale, execute accurate multi-step analytics plans, and accelerate agentic AI development, all without sending data to the LLM or breaching governed boundaries. This enables LLMs to deliver accurate results for analytical queries in minutes, a task that usually takes weeks, even with AI-powered coding tools.
Lenovo announced new data storage, virtualization solutions, and data management services, designed to help companies modernize their data infrastructure for powering enterprise applications and AI-ready capabilities. Today’s new offerings include new Lenovo ThinkSystem and ThinkAgile data storage and virtualization solutions, announced in tandem with data management services. The announcement combines complementary hardware, software, and services offerings to help deploy, manage, and unleash the true potential of enterprise data.
Lightrun launched its new Model Context Protocol (MCP) solution, enabling a fully integrated Runtime Context for AI coding agents. This new capability is a step change in autonomous code writing that gives tools like Cursor and GitHub Copilot full visibility into how code behaves after deployment, filling a missing piece of the AI development ecosystem for enterprises.
