Qlik + Snowflake: Powering the Future of Open, AI-Ready Data Integration

Great partnerships don’t just align on vision — they deliver on execution. This week at Snowflake Summit 2025, I sat down with Andy Iyengar, Qlik and Andrew Helgeson, Snowflake to talk about how this collaboration is helping enterprises unlock speed, flexibility, and intelligence across their data landscape.This partnership has gone beyond integrations — it’s now enabling customers to:- Tap into real-time analytics and governed data with confidence- Embrace Open Lakehouse architectures and Snowflake-managed Iceberg tables- Explore advanced AI use cases like Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) via Snowflake Cortex- And build modern, multi-cloud environments that scale without frictionWe also talked about Qlik being named Snowflake’s 2025 Data Integration Partner of the Year — and what makes this recognition so meaningful.If you’re thinking about what “AI-ready” data actually looks like in production, this one’s for you.#data #ai #snowflakesummit #qlik #theravitshow

The Next Generation of Data Observability

AI agents in data aren’t just coming — they’re already here. But the real story is what makes these agents trustworthy, developer-first, and actually useful for real-world teams. At Snowflake Summit, I caught up with Or Avidov, Co-founder and CPO at Elementary, to talk about their latest announcement — AI agents purpose-built for data teams on The Ravit Show.We dug into: • What makes these agents fundamentally different from the wave of AI tools we’ve seen so far • Why now was the right moment to build them • How Elementary is staying true to its developer-first roots, even while embracing GenAI • And how they’re designing these agents with trust and guardrails built in from day oneWe also zoomed out to talk about what the next 12–18 months could look like for AI in the modern data stack — and what roles agents might play in helping teams move faster, spot issues sooner, and automate the grunt work.If you’re building or running a data team, this one’s worth a watch.#data #ai #snowflakesummit #elementary #theravitshow

Why Enterprise Data Access Needs an AI Revolution

The biggest thing slowing down AI in your company? It’s probably the data access process — not the models. In my conversation at Snowflake Summit, Matthew Carroll, CEO of Immuta, on The Ravit Show laid it out plainly: AI won’t scale if your access model is still built around tickets and manual approvals.We explored:- The moment companies realize their current systems can't keep up- Why Immuta is doubling down on agentic data provisioning- What the future looks like when every access request isn’t a bottleneckThis one is especially relevant for CDOs, CISOs, and data leaders under pressure to move faster without compromising on control.#data #ai #snowflakesummit2025 #immuta #theravitshow

How AI is Driving Automated, Scalable Data Control

As AI adoption grows, one thing is becoming clear — governance can’t stay static. At Snowflake Summit 2025, I spoke with Paul Myres, PMP, Field CTO at Immuta on The Ravit Show, about how traditional governance models are struggling to keep up with the sheer volume and velocity of data access in the AI era.We dug into:-- How the nature of data access is changing as AI agents and workflows scale-- Why many governance frameworks are too rigid to support fast-moving use cases-- What “AI-ready” governance actually looks like — and how it's different from legacy approaches-- And what data leaders can do today to prepare for what’s nextPaul had sharp, practical insights on how to build governance that adapts in real-time — not just reacts after the fact.If you're navigating compliance, access, and AI at scale — this is one conversation worth watching.#data #ai #snowflakesummit #immuta #theravitshow
