The Ravit Show

What if the biggest obstacle to AI success isn't the technology? It's the way organizations are structured. At Data Citizens on the Road by Collibra, I sat down with Joyce Snelders Senior Manager at Deloitte on The Ravit Show to discuss what organizations are experiencing as they move from AI experimentation to enterprise-wide adoption. A few key takeaways from our conversation: * Data gov...

Everyone is talking about AI governance. Almost nobody is talking about the part that actually decides whether it works. I had a blast chatting with Gaurav Bhandari, AVP and Head of Data and Analytics consulting at Infosys, on The Ravit Show at Data Citizens on the Road by Collibra. One line stuck with me. Roughly 80% of AI governance is just governing the data that feeds your models. We have been...

Most enterprise conversations around AI start with models, copilots, and agents. This conversation started somewhere else: the data foundation. Last week at Informatica World, I had the opportunity to sit down with Martí Ganduxé Pregona from Schneider Electric and Emilio Valdés from Informatica to discuss what it really takes for enterprises to move from AI experimentation to AI at scale on The Ra...

One of the most interesting conversations I had at Informatica World was with Theodora Bakker, Vice President of Data at Hearst, and Gaurav Pathak, SVP & GM Product Management, DGP and AI at Informatica/Salesforce on The Ravit Show.

Are dashboards becoming irrelevant in the age of Agentic AI?

Now we're entering a new era where analytics can help recommend...

Some conversations stay with you because there is no hype in them, just real answers. That is how my interview on The Ravit Show with Thomas Benjamin, SVP of Product Development and Engineering at Boomi, felt at Boomi World 2026. Thomas was clear about why most companies cannot get past their first pilot. They treat scaling as a model problem, when the real issue is everything underneath. The data...

I learn the most from people who can explain hard things simply, and my conversation on The Ravit Show with Patricia Moore, AI Field CTO at Boomi, was one of those at Boomi World 2026. Patricia was direct about why so many AI agent pilots stall. Most teams rush to deployment before doing the work on context, data readiness, and governance. That is the gap between the enterprises getting real value...

At Boomi World 2026, I spoke with the amazing Nicole Bradley from Amazon Web Services (AWS) for a conversation on The Ravit Show, and it kept coming back to one idea. Most enterprises are not failing at agentic AI because of the models. They are failing because they are trying to stand up data management and agents without the right partnership underneath!!!! Nicole walked me through the patterns...

One of the sharpest architecture conversations I had at Boomi World 2026 on The Ravit Show was with Kenneth Maglio, Principal Architect at World Wide Technology. His view on agentic AI was refreshingly honest. Can't wait to do this again!!!! A lot of teams are still debating whether to prioritize data management or agentic AI. Ken's answer was simple. That debate is the problem. If you sep...

Quick conversation on The Ravit Show from Boomi World 2026 with John Baker, CIO and CISO at Lexitas. One of the most grounded customer perspectives I have heard this year. Thanks for the amazing insights, John :) John was clear about why Lexitas refused to treat data management and agentic AI as separate projects, what his team stopped wasting time on after Boomi, and why agent governance is the p...

Enterprise software is changing. I sat down with Brian Landsman, CEO of AgentExchange at Salesforce, to talk about what an agent-first future actually looks like. #salesforcepartner This wasn’t a surface-level conversation. We went deep into what’s coming next. Here’s what stood out: * AgentExchange evolved from a marketplace directory into a commerce and discovery layer, is rethinking how enterpr...

Some conversations stay with you for days. This one did. Last week at Team '26 in Anaheim, I spoke to my favourite Tamar Yehoshua, Chief Product and AI Officer at Atlassian. A week later, I'm still thinking about three things she said. Here's the thing about Tamar. I always learn something new every time we talk. She's one of those rare leaders who can zoom from a product detail to...

300 to 600 hours reclaimed every single week. Ticket creation cut by 75%. These are not projections. This is what DocuSign is actually seeing from Atlassian's Rovo rollout right now.

What happens when the database becomes an active participant in AI applications instead of just a place to store data? In this session of The Ravit Show, I sat down with Jay Gordon and Patty Chow to unpack the biggest announcements and takeaways from CosmosDB Conf!!!! One theme stood out throughout the conference: AI is not just changing applications. It's changing the database itself. We disc...

BREAKING from Rubrik!!!! They just made the most aggressive bet I have seen on where enterprise security is heading. I interviewed Anneka Gupta, their Chief Product Officer, right as it all went public at Rubrik FORWARD on The Ravit Show. Two announcements came out of Las Vegas this week. First, Rubrik AI. The platform itself is now an agent. You define the outcome, recover clean, contain the blas...

Most teams think they have an AI strategy. But what they actually have… is fragmentation. At Atlassian Team ‘26, I sat down with Molly Sands, PhD, Head of Teamwork Lab on The Ravit Show to talk about what’s really happening inside teams today. Her work at the Teamwork Lab is different. They’re not just studying the future of work. They’re actively testing how AI changes the way teams operate. A fe...

Can Postgres become the foundation for the next generation of AI applications? As we get closer to POSETTE 2026 by Microsoft in partnership with AMD, I sat down with Charles Feddersen from Microsoft for a curtain raiser conversation about one of the most important events in the Postgres community. Over three days, POSETTE 2026 will bring together 50 speakers and 44 sessions, covering everything fr...

Most AI tools are still just indexing documents. The Teamwork Graph has 150 billion connections. That difference is the whole game. I sat down with Jamil Valliani, the Head of AI Product at Atlassian, during Team '26 on The Ravit Show to understand why they are betting the next decade on this approach. Twenty years in Search before this role. Long before vector databases were trendy. Long before R...

At SAS Innovate, I had the chance to speak with Reggie Townsend about one of the most important topics in AI right now. Trust. What stood out from our conversation is how the market is evolving. Enterprises are moving quickly with AI, but the real challenge is no longer building models. It is ensuring visibility, transparency, and control as these systems start influencing real decisions. We also...

From SAS Innovate, continuing conversations with leaders shaping how enterprise AI actually gets deployed.

We talked about why. The gap is no longer about models. It’s about systems, governance, and how...

Last week at SAS Innovate, I spoke with Dan Soceanu about something every enterprise is talking about, but very few have solved. AI-ready data. The conversation was very practical. AI needs data, but not just more data. It needs data that is trusted, governed, and fit for purpose, especially as automation and agents start making decisions. We also went into digital sovereignty, which is becoming a...

I’m here at SAS Innovate, continuing conversations on what’s next for enterprise AI. I had a blast chatting with Amy Stout, and this one was focused on something many enterprises are curious about but not fully ready for yet. Quantum AI. The discussion was very grounded.
