Unravel’s integration with Unity Catalog enables Databricks users to speed up lakehouse transformation by providing real-time, AI-powered cost insights, code-level optimizations, accurate spending predictions, and performance recommendations to accelerate data pipelines and applications for greater returns on cloud data platform investments. Auto Actions and alerts help automate governance with proactive guardrails.
“Most organizations today are receiving unprecedented amounts of data from a staggering number of sources, and they’re struggling to manage it all, which can quickly lead to unpredictable cloud data spend. This combination of rapid lakehouse adoption and the hyperfocus companies have on leveraging AI/ML models for additional revenue and competitive advantage, brings the importance of data observability to the forefront,” said Kunal Agarwal, CEO and co-founder, Unravel Data. “Lakehouse customers who use Unravel can now achieve the agility required for AI/ML innovation while having the predictability and cost governance guardrails needed to ensure a strong ROI.”
