... I think, the notion that [Saa]
business applications exist, that’s
probably where they’ll all collapse,
right in the Agent era..”
- Satya Nadella
GenAI is changing how we develop
applications. Quickly.
"AI is fundamentally disrupting
software development ...”
-Innovation Endeavors (VC) / Axios, June 2025
“...AI pipelines need dynamic schemas
to [handle] evolving sources.”
-2025 Future Enterprise Resiliency & Spending, IDC
“A business data fabric reduces
latency and powers advanced AI…”
-Venture Beat, Enhancing business agility with rapid
data integration and advanced AI, 2025
"Organizations with rich, [connected]
knowledge graphs will have a
significant competitive advantage…”
-Gartner Perception is the New Superpower For the
Future of Analytics and BI, 2025
"[GenAI]…will disrupt the very
software that enabled the last wave
of transformation."
-Harvard Business Review, May 2025
