Maintain rigorous control while scaling your AI enterprise. In this session, we dive into the latest innovations within Snowflake Horizon Catalog, our universal agentic catalog with context and governance for AI. Learn how Horizon Catalog powers the semantic layer to bridge the gap between technical metadata and business meaning. We also cover enhancements to interoperability and embedded open APIs (Apache Polaris and Iceberg REST Catalog), ensuring consistent policy enforcement across data inside and outside of Snowflake. Finally, we explore core governance, including external lineage updates, automated data classification, and data quality monitoring.

In this session, we’ll walk through the latest advancements in platform security and compliance on Databricks — from networking updates to encryption, serverless security and new compliance certifications across AWS, Azure and Google Cloud. We’ll also share our roadmap and best practices for how to securely configure workloads on Databricks SQL Serverless, Unity Catalog, Mosaic AI and more — at scale.
