SAP on Monday announced plans to acquire Dremio, which bills itself as an agentic lakehouse company, for an unspecified price. The move is complicated by similar offerings from existing SAP partners Snowflake and Databricks, but analysts point to key differences with Dremio, especially in its ability to work with data while it sits in the enterprise’s environment, rather than having to live externally.
One of SAP’s justifications for the acquisition is that it will theoretically make it easier for IT executives to combine SAP data with non-SAP data. But its strongest rationale involves Dremio’s ability to make complex data more AI-friendly, so that it can more quickly and cost-effectively be made usable.
“Most enterprise AI projects fail to deliver value not because of the AI itself, but because the underlying data is fragmented, locked in proprietary formats and stripped of the business context that makes it meaningful,” the SAP announcement said. “The result is a familiar and costly

Snowflake is enhancing Snowflake Intelligence and Cortex Code to create a unified experience connecting enterprise systems, data sources, and AI models with Snowflake data. It’s part of the company’s vision to become the control plane for the agentic enterprise, enabling enterprises to align data, tools, and workflows with AI agents built on its platform.
With these updates, the company said, Snowflake Intelligence becomes an adaptable personal work agent for business users, and Cortex Code expands as a builder layer for enterprise AI that provides governed, data-native development.
Enhancements to Snowflake Intelligence include automation of routine tasks by describing them in natural language, new Model Context Protocol (MCP) connectors, and reusable artifacts that let users save and share analyses, visualizations, and workflows, all of which will be generally available “soon.” In addition, a new iOS mobile app, and multi-step reasoning with deep research that uses agentic architectu
