The companies aim to help commercial and public sector customers create faster, more trusted data pipelines, accelerate analytics, and open new levels of AI-driven decision-making.
The most important feature is that the integration enables zero-copy interoperability. This means users can access and analyze data across both platforms without duplicating it. This will help save time, reduce costs, and improve governance.
