Alation Inc., the leader in enterprise data intelligence solutions, announced a partnership with Dataiku, the leading global Enterprise AI and machine learning platform, to accelerate time to value, increase collaboration and efficiency of data science teams, and ensure that sensitive data used to create AI and machine-learning models is properly classified and governed. The partnership expedites the time and accuracy of data science insights for organizations.

Data science teams depend on Alation for critical insight into the right data to use. As a single source of truth for data scientists, Alation enables them to find and understand trusted data with deep context for data modeling. With the integration, data scientists working in Dataiku can automatically ingest curated datasets from Alation directly into Dataiku, decreasing the time spent searching for data and subject matter experts, while also ensuring data quality. Now, Alation users can discover models, recipes, and projects built in Dataiku and ensure models adhere to emerging data privacy regulations and are properly governed by stewards and data scientists.
