Universal Query Engine
Federated Access to All Your Enterprise Data
The Universal Query Engine connects to distributed data sources across cloud, on-prem, and SaaS systems — querying data live, in place, with zero-copy architecture. No ETL. No replication. No sync delays.
WHY IT MATTERS
Your Agents Need One Interface to All Your Data
AI agents fail when they can’t reach the data. And in most enterprises, that data is spread across cloud warehouses, relational databases, data lakes, and SaaS applications — each with its own interface, dialect, and access model. The Universal Query Engine gives every agent a single, federated access point to your entire data estate. No custom integrations per source. No data movement. Just one interface that connects to everything, live.
One Interface for Every Agent and User
No custom connectors to build per source, no separate integration per consumer. One federated access layer connects AI agents, BI tools, analysts, and applications to your entire data estate — deployed in days, not months.
Always-Current Answers
Agents query live data where it lives, in real time. No stale copies, no sync delays — every response reflects the current state of the business.
Full Infrastructure Flexibility
No forced migrations, no lock-in to a single warehouse, no consolidation required. Keep your existing platforms, add new ones freely — data stays where it is.
Enterprise-Scale Performance
Pushdown optimization routes computation to source systems. Adaptive query planning accounts for data volume, network conditions, and source capabilities — delivering fast results across even the most complex, distributed environments.
KEY CAPABILITIES
Live, Federated, Zero-Copy
Live Data Access
The Universal Query Engine queries data where it lives, in real time. Every query hits the source system directly — no copies, no sync pipelines, no overnight batch jobs. Whether your data is in Snowflake, Oracle, S3, or Salesforce, the engine connects natively and returns results from the live source. This means your answers always reflect the current state of the business, not yesterday’s snapshot.
Zero-Copy
Traditional approaches require moving data into a centralized warehouse or lakehouse before it can be queried. The Universal Query Engine eliminates that step entirely. Data stays in your existing platforms — no ETL pipelines to build, no replication jobs to monitor, no storage costs to manage. Built on Trino and extended for enterprise scale, the engine pushes computation to the source systems, so data never moves. The result: faster time to insight, lower infrastructure cost, and zero data sprawl.
Cross-Source Query Execution
Run a single SQL query that spans Snowflake, Databricks, Oracle, PostgreSQL, and more — simultaneously. The Universal Query Engine resolves schemas, optimizes joins, and pushes filters and aggregations down to each source system for maximum performance. Intelligent query planning routes computation to the most efficient execution path, with adaptive optimization that accounts for data volume, network latency, and source capabilities. The result is enterprise-scale analytics without the overhead of consolidating data into a single platform.
HOW IT WORKS
Query Everything Across Your Entire Data Ecosystem
From connecting your first source to delivering live results — here’s what happens under the hood.
Connect Everywhere
Link to any data source across cloud, on-prem, or SaaS systems through native connectors — Snowflake, Databricks, Oracle, PostgreSQL, S3, Salesforce, and more.
Discover Metadata Automatically
Crawl and index schemas, table relationships, and column-level metadata across every connected source — building a live map of your data estate.
Execute Federated Queries
Run distributed SQL across multiple systems simultaneously, with pushdown optimization that routes computation to source systems for maximum performance.
Optimize for Performance
Intelligent query planning adapts to data volume, source capabilities, and network conditions — ensuring fast results at enterprise scale.
Deliver Results Anywhere
Publish live results to BI tools, AI agents, or custom applications through MCP, APIs, and open standards — without copying a single row.
