The promise of AI in enterprise settings is enormous, but so are the privacy and security challenges. How do you harness AI's capabilities while keeping sensitive data protected within your organization's boundaries? Private AI—using your own models, data, and infrastructure—offers a solution, but implementation isn't straightforward. What governance frameworks need to be in place? How do you evaluate non-deterministic AI systems? When should you build in-house versus leveraging cloud services? As data and software teams evolve in this new landscape, understanding the technical requirements and workflow changes is essential for organizations looking to maintain control over their AI destiny. Manasi Vartak is Chief AI Architect and VP of Product Management (AI Platform) at Cloudera. She is a product and AI leader with more than a decade of experience at the intersection of AI infrastructure, enterprise software, and go-to-market strategy. At Cloudera, she leads product and engineering teams building low-code and high-code generative AI platforms, driving the company’s enterprise AI strategy and enabling trusted AI adoption across global organizations. Before joining Cloudera through its acquisition of Verta, Manasi was the founder and CEO of Verta, where she transformed her MIT research into enterprise-ready ML infrastructure. She scaled the company to multi-million ARR, serving Fortune 500 clients in finance, insurance, and capital markets, and led the launch of enterprise MLOps and GenAI products used in mission-critical workloads. Manasi earned her PhD in Computer Science from MIT, where she pioneered model management systems such as ModelDB — foundational work that influenced the development of tools like MLflow. Earlier in her career, she held research and engineering roles at Twitter, Facebook, Google, and Microsoft. In the episode, Richie and Manasi explore AI's role in financial services, the challenges of AI adoption in enterprises, the importance of data governance, the evolving skills needed for AI development, the future of AI agents, and much more.

Adnan Hodzic, Lead Engineer and GenAI Delivery Lead at ING, joined Yuliia how ING successfully scaled generative AI from experimentation to enterprise production. With over 60 GenAI applications now running in production across the bank, Adnan explains ING's pragmatic approach: building internal AI platforms that balance innovation speed with regulatory compliance, treating European banking regulations as features rather than constraints, and fostering a culture where 300+ experiments can safely run while only the best reach production. He discusses the critical role of their Prompt Flow Studio in democratizing AI development, why customer success teams saw immediate productivity gains, how ING structures AI governance without killing innovation, and his perspective on the hype cycle versus real enterprise value.

Summary In this episode of the Data Engineering Podcast Matt Topper, president of UberEther, talks about the complex challenge of identity, credentials, and access control in modern data platforms. With the shift to composable ecosystems, integration burdens have exploded, fracturing governance and auditability across warehouses, lakes, files, vector stores, and streaming systems. Matt shares practical solutions, including propagating user identity via JWTs, externalizing policy with engines like OPA/Rego and Cedar, and using database proxies for native row/column security. He also explores catalog-driven governance, lineage-based label propagation, and OpenTDF for binding policies to data objects. The conversation covers machine-to-machine access, short-lived credentials, workload identity, and constraining access by interface choke points, as well as lessons from Zanzibar-style policy models and the human side of enforcement. Matt emphasizes the need for trust composition - unifying provenance, policy, and identity context - to answer questions about data access, usage, and intent across the entire data path.

Announcements Hello and welcome to the Data Engineering Podcast, the show about modern data managementData teams everywhere face the same problem: they're forcing ML models, streaming data, and real-time processing through orchestration tools built for simple ETL. The result? Inflexible infrastructure that can't adapt to different workloads. That's why Cash App and Cisco rely on Prefect. Cash App's fraud detection team got what they needed - flexible compute options, isolated environments for custom packages, and seamless data exchange between workflows. Each model runs on the right infrastructure, whether that's high-memory machines or distributed compute. Orchestration is the foundation that determines whether your data team ships or struggles. ETL, ML model training, AI Engineering, Streaming - Prefect runs it all from ingestion to activation in one platform. Whoop and 1Password also trust Prefect for their data operations. If these industry leaders use Prefect for critical workflows, see what it can do for you at dataengineeringpodcast.com/prefect.Data migrations are brutal.

And for dbt Cloud customers, they'll give you $1,000 credit to migrate to Bruin Cloud.Your host is Tobias Macey and today I'm interviewing Matt Topper about the challenges of managing identity and access controls in the context of data systemsInterview IntroductionHow did you get involved in the area of data management?The data ecosystem is a uniquely challenging space for creating and enforcing technical controls for identity and access control. What are the key considerations for designing a strategy for addressing those challenges?For data acess the off-the-shelf options are typically on either extreme of too coarse or too granular in their capabilities. What do you see as the major factors that contribute to that situation?Data governance policies are often used as the primary means of identifying what data can be accesssed by whom, but translating that into enforceable constraints is often left as a secondary exercise. How can we as an industry make that a more manageable and sustainable practice?How can the audit trails that are generated by data systems be used to inform the technical controls for identity and access?How can the foundational technologies of our data platforms be improved to make identity and authz a more composable primitive?How does the introduction of streaming/real-time data ingest and delivery complicate the challenges of security controls?What are the most interesting, innovative, or unexpected ways that you have seen data teams address ICAM?What are the most interesting, unexpected, or challenging lessons that you have learned while working on ICAM?What are the aspects of ICAM in data systems that you are paying close attention to?What are your predictions for the industry adoption or enforcement of those controls?Contact Info LinkedInParting Question From your perspective, what is the biggest gap in the tooling or technology for data management today?Closing Announcements Thank you for listening!

As we count down to the 100th episode of Data Unchained, we’re revisiting one of the conversations that perfectly captures the spirit of this show: how data mobility is transforming business. In this look-back episode, host Molly Presley welcomes Harry Carr, CEO of Vcinity, for a deep dive into the technology that’s redefining how enterprises access and move data across distributed environments. Harry explains why hybrid cloud exists, how Vcinity accelerates data access without duplication or compression, and why the future of data architecture lies in making data available anywhere—instantly. From connecting global AI workflows to eliminating the need to move massive datasets, this episode explores what true “data anti-gravity” looks like and how it’s reshaping the modern enterprise. Listen as Molly and Harry discuss the evolution of data architectures, the synergy between Hammerspace and Vcinity, and what it means to build a world where applications and data connect seamlessly, no matter where they live.
