Use Cases
- Build governed data products that serve BI dashboards and ML models without copying data across silos
- Modernize ETL by shifting to Delta pipelines that handle streaming and batch with fewer moving parts and clearer lineage
- Deploy RAG assistants that search governed documents with vector indexes and access controls for safe retrieval
- Scale experimentation with MLflow so teams compare runs promote models and enable reproducible releases
- Consolidate legacy warehouses and data science clusters to reduce cost and drift while improving security posture
- Serve predictive features to apps using online stores that sync from batch and streaming pipelines under catalog control
- Create governed digital twins that align planning and operations
- Unify data across silos for cross mission situational awareness
- Deploy AI assisted workflows that keep humans in the loop
- Run link analysis on complex networks and signals
- Deliver continuous upgrades across edge and cloud with policy
- Stand up secure data foundations under strict compliance
