WILMINGTON, Del., Sept. 3, 2026 — EnterpriseDB (EDB), recognized as a leader in sovereign data and AI solutions, has reported significant advancements in enterprise adoption and industry acclaim for its EDB Postgres AI (EDB PG AI) platform. As organizations transition from disparate data stacks to integrated systems, the need for a unified approach to transactional, analytical, and agentic workloads has become increasingly evident.
Enterprise Aspirations and Current Realities
While an impressive 95% of enterprises aim to establish themselves as their own AI and data platforms within the next three years, only a mere 13% have achieved this goal as of now. This gap highlights a clear ambition among organizations, yet the architectural frameworks necessary to support such aspirations remain underdeveloped.
“Most organizations already possess the technologies required for AI; however, far fewer have successfully integrated them into a cohesive governed system. This distinction is crucial for agents, as it determines their ability to act on live data in accordance with enterprise policies, rather than remaining confined to pilot programs that require further integration,” stated Kevin Dallas, CEO of EDB.
EDB PG AI: A Dual Approach to Transition
EDB PG AI is effectively bridging the gap between current operational needs and future AI capabilities. The platform is not only supporting the existing systems that enterprises rely on but is also laying the groundwork for how they will harness AI moving forward. Recent success stories from customers and partners across Europe and Asia illustrate a shift from strategic planning to operational execution.
- Case Study: PAC 2000A Conad – This retail giant, responsible for over €8 billion in sales, has restructured its data infrastructure using EDB PG AI in collaboration with EDB and Uno Informatica. The new distributed architecture serves more than 1,600 stores and accommodates 7,000 connected devices simultaneously, ensuring continuous availability and compliance with NIS2 regulations. The company plans to expand this foundation into additional applications before deploying AI agents in a sovereign mode.
- Quote from Luca Cibruscola, CIO of PAC 2000A Conad: “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.”
Strategic Developments in Korea
Korea is making substantial strides in its sovereign AI market, bolstered by over 5 billion in investments from both public and private sectors. The AI Basic Act has introduced formal governance requirements for AI deployment in critical sectors, creating a structured environment for innovation.
C Platform, a technology distributor with extensive reach across Korean enterprises, has identified a consistent trend: regulated organizations are increasingly seeking hybrid and on-premises solutions. Fragmented data environments, however, often hinder the progression of AI projects, even when business cases are approved.
“Customers are eager to adopt AI, but they are also becoming more cautious regarding data security and control. EDB Postgres AI enables us to present operational data, analytical workloads, and the AI foundation from a single, integrated perspective,” remarked Jaeseong Seo from the AI Solutions Business Team at C Platform.
These enterprises are part of a growing global network utilizing EDB PG AI for mission-critical and analytical workloads, including notable names such as the Industrial Bank of Korea, Shinhan EZ Insurance, NTT East, MNTN, Euronext FX, and Kyobo Book Centre.
