Denodo Is the Most Intelligent Data Platform for the Trusted Agentic Enterprise

Build the Agentic Enterprise with Live, Trusted Data from All Sources

Overview

Agentic AI promises a new era of autonomy. Yet despite significant investment, real-world success remains elusive, with failure rates up to 95%.

The reason is trust.

AI agents break trust when they lack real-time awareness of current situations, act on incomplete or the wrong  data, or when they operate outside compliance and business-SLA guardrails. These are not AI model problems. They are data problems.

Denodo provides the logical data foundation for agentic AI, delivering live, business-contextual, and governed trustworthy data from across the enterprise, without copying or centralizing it.  Agents can then act with confidence, accuracy, and control, and earn trust.

What is Agentic AI?

Agentic AI refers to intelligent systems that can:

  • Perceive changing conditions using live enterprise data, regardless of where it resides
  • Decide based on the right enterprise data, determined by live business context and consistent semantics.
  • Act autonomously within guardrails defined by compliance policies and business SLAs.

Unlike generative AI, which primarily produces content or insights, agentic AI executes workflows, triggers decisions, and drives outcomes across operational and analytical domains, with little to no human intervention.

This shift dramatically raises the bar for data management.

Why Agentic AI Projects Have Struggled

Most enterprises are discovering that traditional data architectures are not aligned with the needs of agentic AI.  They were designed for retrospective analytics whereas AI agents are often operational in nature.

Common causes of failure include:

Lack of live data access

Agents rely on stale or pre-aggregated data, limiting situational awareness.

Missing business context and semantic consistency

Even accurate data becomes misleading when semantics lack business context and differ across systems.

Fragmented governance and security controls

Agents must act within enterprise policies, compliance rules, and SLAs consistently, across all data sources.

The result? Agents that can’t be trusted.

Agentic AI Needs a Different Data Foundation

To operate safely and effectively, AI agents require:

  • Zero-copy access to live data from all relevant source systems
  • Unified business semantics across structured and unstructured data
  • Centralized governance and policy enforcement
  • Optimized performance and cost controls for AI-intensive workloads
  • Access to all relevant enterprise data across multi-cloud, hybrid, on-prem, SaaS, and third-party.  Structured and unstructured.

This is where logical data management becomes essential.
