How AI data foundations are rewriting enterprise architecture
Enterprise AI is hitting a wall: not enough models, but no access to the right data. Here's how companies are rebuilding their infrastructure to fix it.

Why it matters
As enterprises move AI from pilot to production, data infrastructure—not just model capability—has become the bottleneck. This shift is reshaping how companies think about on-prem vs. cloud, data governance, and the compute stack required to support agentic AI at scale.

Publisher excerpt: In the quest to deploy artificial intelligence at scale, enterprises are discovering a basic truth: Model capability is no longer the only issue, but data access and control can determine success or failure for AI initiatives. This realization has led to a focus on AI infrastructure, the buildout…
