See the Proven ROI of Extending Your Lakehouse with Denodo
Download the independent ROI study to learn how organizations achieved 3–4× faster insights, reduced data engineering effort, and realized measurable cost savings, by using Denodo alongside their lakehouse.
Download the roi reportDenodo acts as a logical data management layer that sits alongside your lakehouse to unify, govern, and deliver data from across your enterprise.
Instead of forcing all data into the lakehouse, Denodo:
- Connects to lakehouse data and distributed sources in real time
- Applies consistent business semantics and governance
- Delivers curated data products to BI tools, AI models, and applications via a business-friendly Data Marketplace for self-service discovery and access.
This approach enables organizations to use their lakehouse where it adds the most value, while avoiding unnecessary data movement, duplicated pipelines, and spiraling consumption costs.
Lakehouses excel at storage and processing, but many organizations encounter common challenges once they try to scale usage across the business:
- Data engineering teams become bottlenecks as new pipelines and models are required for every request.
- Business users struggle to find and trust data due to inconsistent definitions.
- AI initiatives stall because data is not governed, explainable, or delivered in real time.
- Costs rise as more workloads compete for lakehouse compute.
Denodo addresses these challenges by decoupling data consumption from physical data movement, enabling faster delivery without adding architectural complexity.
Research by independent analyst Veqtor8 shows that organizations using Denodo alongside a modern data lakehouse achieved:
$3.6M in cost avoidance over three years
345% ROI with payback in under seven months
Significant reductions in integration, governance, and engineering effort
These gains come not from replacing existing platforms, but from making lakehouse investments more efficient, scalable, and business-ready.
