StreamSets, a Software AG company, announced the latest version of the StreamSets platform trial along with new features to help organizations modernize their data ecosystems to unlock their data, accelerate time to insights and improve user productivity.
“We are excited to unveil a new 30-day trial of the StreamSets platform, offering users the opportunity to dive right in and experience how the platform can help them deliver data for their organization’s data and analytics initiatives,” said Michele Reister, VP of Global Marketing at StreamSets. “Through our new free trial experience, users can explore the platform’s full capabilities and experience how it can help streamline their data operations and improve productivity.”
The latest version of the platform trial will provide users with 30-day access to the platform. During the trial period, users will have full access to all of the features and functionality of the platform, including StreamSets Data Collector and StreamSets Transformer for Snowflake.
In addition to the launch of the trial, StreamSets has rolled out a series of features in recent months that enhance collaborations with pivotal technology partners such as Snowflake, AWS, and MongoDB and enable organizations that are modernizing their data environments.
The features include:
- StreamSets Transformer for Snowflake—Easily perform no-code data transformations natively in Snowflake. This tool provides a user-friendly graphical interface with pre-built processors that simplify building, executing, and monitoring even the most complex data transformations. Transformer for Snowflake enables collaboration across the organization and empowers business users with self-service capabilities, significantly accelerating time to insights.
- Support for Amazon EMR Serverless—Support for Amazon EMR Serverless further enables organizations to process and analyze large amounts of data in a cost-effective, scalable, and serverless manner. This is highly beneficial for organizations leveraging Amazon EMR Serverless as a destination.
- Support for MongoDB Atlas Origin & Destination—Accelerate data and analytics initiatives with StreamSets and MongoDB. StreamSets MongoDB Atlas origin and destination allows users to read from and write to MongoDB Atlas and MongoDB Enterprise Server. This enhancement can be useful for organizations that are leveraging MongoDB Atlas and MongoDB Enterprise.
- Oracle CDC Support for Data Guard—Perform CDC from Oracle Data Guard as an efficient means to replicate and synchronize data. This can be especially useful for organizations that house data in disparate systems and formats and want to leverage cloud destinations such as Snowflake to perform reporting and analytics.

In live financial environments, capital markets software cannot pause for rebuilds. New capabilities are introduced as stacked technology layers to meet evolving demands while systems remain active, data keeps moving, and controls stay intact. AI is no exception, and its opportunities are significant: accelerated decision cycles, compressed manual workflows, and more effective operations across complex environments. The constraint isn't the models themselves, but the architectural environments they enter ...
Like most digital transformation shifts, organizations often prioritize productivity and leave security and observability to keep pace. This usually translates to both the mass implementation of new technology and fragmented monitoring and observability (M&O) tooling. In the era of AI and varied cloud architecture, a disparate observability function can be dangerous. IT teams will lack a complete picture of their IT environment, making it harder to diagnose issues while slowing down mean time to resolve (MTTR). In fact, according to recent data from the SolarWinds State of Monitoring & Observability Report, 77% of IT personnel said the lack of visibility across their on-prem and cloud architecture was an issue ...

Technology management is evolving, and in turn, so is the scope of FinOps. The FinOps Foundation recently updated their mission statement from "advancing the people who manage the value of cloud" to "advancing the people who manage the value of technology." This seemingly small change solidifies a larger evolution: FinOps practitioners have organically expanded to be focused on more than just cloud cost optimization. Today, FinOps teams are largely — and quickly — expanding their job descriptions, evolving into a critical function for managing the full value of technology ...
Enterprises are under pressure to scale AI quickly. Yet despite considerable investment, adoption continues to stall. One of the most overlooked reasons is vendor sprawl ... In reality, no organization deliberately sets out to create sprawling vendor ecosystems. More often, complexity accumulates over time through well-intentioned initiatives, such as enterprise-wide digital transformation efforts, point solutions, or decentralized sourcing strategies ...
Nearly every conversation about AI eventually circles back to compute. GPUs dominate the headlines while cloud platforms compete for workloads and model benchmarks drive investment decisions. But underneath that noise, a quieter infrastructure challenge is taking shape. The real bottleneck in enterprise AI is not processing power, it is the ability to store, manage and retrieve the relentless volumes of data that AI systems generate, consume and multiply ...
The 2026 Observability Survey from Grafana Labs paints a vivid picture of an industry maturing fast, where AI is welcomed with careful conditions, SaaS economics are reshaping spending decisions, complexity remains a defining challenge, and open standards continue to underpin it all ...
The observability industry has an evolving relationship with AI. We're not skeptics, but it's clear that trust in AI must be earned ... In Grafana Labs' annual Observability Survey, 92% said they see real value in AI surfacing anomalies before they cause downtime. Another 91% endorsed AI for forecasting and root cause analysis. So while the demand is there, customers need it to be trustworthy, as the survey also found that the practitioners most enthusiastic about AI are also the most insistent on explainability ...
In the modern enterprise, the conversation around AI has moved past skepticism toward a stage of active adoption. According to our 2026 State of IT Trends Report: The Human Side of Autonomous AI, nearly 90% of IT professionals view AI as a net positive, and this optimism is well-founded. We are seeing agentic AI move beyond simple automation to actively streamlining complex data insights and eliminating the manual toil that has long hindered innovation. However, as we integrate these autonomous agents into our ecosystems, the fundamental DNA of the IT role is evolving ...
AI workloads require an enormous amount of computing power ... What's also becoming abundantly clear is just how quickly AI's computing needs are leading to enterprise systems failure. According to Cockroach Labs' State of AI Infrastructure 2026 report, enterprise systems are much closer to failure than their organizations realize. The report ... suggests AI scale could cause widespread failures in as little as one year — making it a clear risk for business performance and reliability.
