As enterprises transition from pilot projects to full-scale production, the landscape of AI and data management is evolving. Organizations are increasingly seeking to establish themselves as their own governed AI and data platforms, rather than merely relying on external solutions. This shift is underscored by the recent developments at EnterpriseDB (EDB), a leader in sovereign data and AI technologies.
Shifting Towards Integrated AI Solutions
EDB has reported significant traction and recognition for its EDB Postgres® AI (EDB PG AI) platform, as organizations move away from disparate data stacks. The goal is to unify transactional, analytical, and agentic workloads into a single, governed system. According to recent surveys, a striking 95% of enterprises aim to develop their own AI and data platforms within the next three years, yet only 13% have achieved this milestone thus far. The ambition is clear, but the architectural framework remains a challenge.
Kevin Dallas, CEO of EDB, emphasizes the importance of integrated systems: “Most organizations already have the technologies required for AI; far fewer have made them function as one governed system. For agents, that difference determines whether they can act on live data under enterprise policy or remain trapped in pilots behind another layer of integration.”
Case Studies Illustrating the Transition
EDB PG AI is making strides in supporting enterprises as they navigate this transition. For instance, PAC 2000A Conad, a major retail player, has revamped its data infrastructure using EDB PG AI. This transformation supports over 1,600 stores and 7,000 connected devices, ensuring continuous availability and compliance with NIS2 regulations. The company plans to expand its AI capabilities further, operating in a sovereign mode.
Luca Cibruscola, CIO of PAC 2000A Conad, remarked, “The choice of EDB Postgres AI was decisive. But more than the technology, it was how we approached the change together that made the difference.”
In another example, C Platform, a technology distributor in Korea, is witnessing a surge in demand for hybrid and on-premises capabilities. The country’s significant investment in sovereign AI, exceeding 5 billion, is complemented by the AI Basic Act, which mandates governance for AI deployment in critical sectors. Jaeseong Seo from C Platform noted, “Customers are eager to adopt AI, but also increasingly cautious about data security and control. EDB Postgres AI lets us propose operational data, analytical workloads, and the AI foundation from a single, integrated perspective.”
Global Adoption and Industry Recognition
These enterprises are part of a growing global network leveraging EDB PG AI for mission-critical and analytical workloads. Notable adopters include the Industrial Bank of Korea, Shinhan EZ Insurance, NTT East, MNTN, Euronext FX, and Kyobo Book Centre.
As enterprises continue to navigate the complexities of AI and data governance, EDB stands out as a pivotal player, offering solutions that not only meet current demands but also pave the way for future innovations in the realm of sovereign AI.
