AI & Datanova Highlights | Starburst

AI & Datanova is Starburst’s flagship global conference dedicated to exploring the intersection of data, AI, and enterprise innovation. Bringing together business leaders, data practitioners, and technologists from around the world, the event serves as a forum to showcase how organizations can move from AI experimentation to enterprise-scale impact. At its core, AI & Datanova is about bridging the gap between visionary ideas and practical implementation. As AI continues to redefine what’s possible in business, the event provides a platform for discussing not only emerging technologies—such as Large Language Models (LLMs), Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), and agentic AI—but also the data architectures that make these innovations sustainable, governed, and scalable. Across keynote sessions, technical deep dives, and customer stories, attendees gain an inside look at how leading organizations are overcoming real-world challenges in data management, AI adoption, and compliance. Whether it’s building data products that fuel intelligent automation, establishing a context-aware enterprise, or operationalizing AI workflows across teams, AI & Datanova focuses on tangible strategies that drive measurable business outcomes. The event also highlights Starburst’s continued innovation in enabling the AI-ready enterprise. From its open lakehouse architecture to its advancements in data governance and federated access, Starburst demonstrates how to create a unified, trusted data foundation for the age of agentic AI. Beyond technology, AI & Datanova explores the human side of AI transformation—how teams can adapt, collaborate, and build trust in systems that increasingly act alongside them. It’s a space for executives and engineers alike to rethink the future of work, where humans and intelligent agents operate together across clouds, data domains, and organizational boundaries. With a mix of forward-looking vision and hands-on insight, AI & Datanova continues to shape the conversation around data, AI, and the architectures that will define the next decade of enterprise innovation. It’s more than a conference—it’s where the future of intelligent business is being built.
