I had the privilege to make a podcast with the amazing Deepti Srivastava, Founder Snow Leopard, who's on a mission to revolutionize how organizations implement Gen AI by connecting it directly to data sources - avoiding unnesesary ETLs.
(Deepti, sorry for my lousy pitch! ?? )
Deepti completely changed my perspective on how Gen AI should be integrated into enterprise workflows. In short, pulling data into LLMs will always leave us steps behind. Instead, Deepti introduces an approach where Gen AI applications connect directly to enterprise data including operational data sources (CRM, data warehouses, applications, databases whatever) and retrieve data instantly when needed and only what needed, ensuring the highest reliability and freshness - avoiding the nightmares of building and maintaining endless ETLs that we often lose track of.
I wish I could publish the entire podcast here. In this preview, you'll see Deepti's crisp vision shaped by two decades of experience at #Oracle and #GoogleCloud, where she led #Spanner from research project to enterprise product.
A few highlights from our conversation:
- Why traditional RAG approaches aren't sufficient for business-critical AI applications
- How to maintain data security while enabling real-time AI access
- Why data silos aren't the enemy - they're a fact of life we need to work with
- The future of enterprise AI integration without unnecessary data movement
