The data management company Denodo has announced its latest collaboration with Google Cloud, which incorporates a new integration of the Denodo Platform with Google Cloud's Vertex AI. It represents a cutting-edge partnership in the field of enterprise innovation, combining advanced logical data management capacities with generative AI services. This integration delivers customers the capability to swiftly access AI-ready data and efficiently implement Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) with enterprise data. It also broadens the applicability of generative AI use cases.

Dan Young, Chief Data Architect at Indiana University, voiced his institution's support for the newly formed integration, stating that Google's and "Denodo's cutting edge technologies enable us to provide robust data architectures freeing up valuable time and resources for our team. We recognised early on the transformative potential that can be realised by combining Denodo's data management platform with Google technologies." By embracing Google’s Generative AI capabilities, this union holds considerable promise to empower its academic community and enhance the success of its students.

A wide spectrum of industries, including financial services, healthcare, manufacturing, retail, telecommunications, and higher education, are actively investigating the transformative power of generative AI in their respective sectors. By integrating Denodo's platform with advanced Gemini models, these enterprises are uniquely positioned to develop innovative new services and applications, leading to substantial business transformation.

Ritika Suri, Technology Partnerships Director at Google Cloud, further advocates for the profound impact of generative AI, stating, "Generative AI can significantly improve how businesses operate and benefit virtually every industry." She further commended Denodo's collaboration with Google Cloud in unlocking new insights that enhance operations and productivity through its Gen AI capabilities.
