data.world, the enterprise data catalog for the modern data stack, is announcing its partnership with Databricks, marking an enterprise-wide commitment toward visibility and accessible data. data.world’s knowledge graph architecture, paired with the Databricks Unity Catalog, provides access to a variety of data sources as well as unified governance.
data.world’s user experience and knowledge graph architecture allows for efficient data discovery, agile data governance, and actionable insights, according to the company. The knowledge graph helps in evaluating relationships between similar and duplicate datasets, as well as in producing connections between datasets to assist in data organization. By improving data analysis and emphasizing data access, the company ensures that data can be easily shared throughout an organization, ultimately ushering in data-driven decision-making.
“We know data scientists continue to spend 80% of their time wrangling data and 97% of surveyed data engineers are frustrated with their current role, in part due to a growing volume of ‘unreasonable’ data requests,” said Lofan Leung, head of technology alliances at data.world. “Many of these challenges can be mitigated by getting improved visibility and understanding of all the data that’s available for analysis and data science. Our integration with Databricks addresses these challenges by making it easier to find, access, and experiment on data assets in the lakehouse and beyond.”
The partnership with Databricks transforms data.world’s ability to assist its users. Unifying data.world’s data accessibility with Databricks’ lakehouse platform provides a seamless and valuable data science experience, according to the vendors. data.world integrates a semantic layer over the Databricks Unity Catalog, allowing for lakehouse assets to be more easily understood, analyzed, and employed for enterprise decision-making.
“Our customers are seeking pathways to seamlessly discover data on the Databricks Lakehouse Platform to power productivity and innovation,” said Ariel Amster, director of strategic technology partners at Databricks. “data.world’s unique knowledge-graph-based data catalog provides our shared users the ability to create and associate relationships across all data sources in their lakehouse. Through its integration with Unity Catalog, data.world enables enterprises to discover new insights, identify the most relevant information for their businesses, and make data-backed decisions with confidence.“
