The New Era of Gen AI: Enabled by Logical Data Management

Denodo AI SDK

Accelerate AI App Development

AI SDK Demo

The Denodo AI SDK is an open-source software package that enables AI-powered application developers to develop and deploy their applications much more quickly, by streamlining all the data-related work in their development lifecycle, and simplifying the integration of both structured and unstructured data and metadata into GenAI models, for higher AI accuracy and better performance. Freely available and licensed under the Apache license, the Denodo AI SDK is available both from Github and the Denodo community, and is also available bundled with the freely downloadable Denodo Express. Powered by the platform’s rich semantic layer and active metadata, the AI SDK powers unprecedented agility and time-to-value for GenAI applications depending on enterprise data.

Denodo Assistant: Embedded GenAI for Enhanced Productivity

Denodo Assistant is a core component of the Denodo Platform that enhances productivity by simplifying data tasks for both data engineers and consumers. It leverages AI and machine learning to automate routine processes, providing intelligent autocompletion, proactive suggestions, and optimization recommendations. Denodo Assistant can recommend relevant datasets, assist with natural language queries, and offer suggestions for query acceleration and data preparation. These capabilities, powered by the platform's rich semantic layer and active metadata, enable users to make faster, more informed decisions while streamlining everyday tasks.

The Denodo Platform

Denodo’s logical data management capabilities, combined with our Query RAG support, help organizations improve the accuracy of their GenAI large language models (LLMs) by delivering context-rich, real-time data from across hybrid, multi-cloud environments. The result: more precise responses, fewer hallucinations, faster decisions, and smoother GenAI operations.

Building on this foundation, Denodo DeepQuery — our advanced deep research capability — takes GenAI to the next level. While Query RAG is ideal for answering fact-based questions (“What happened?”), DeepQuery goes further by tackling complex, open-ended questions (“Why is it happening?” or “What should we do next?”). It mimics the reasoning of a skilled data analyst, analyzing live data across disparate systems to uncover root causes, explain drivers, and deliver insights in minutes — not days.

Denodo also supports the emerging Model Context Protocol (MCP), an open standard that enables AI agents and copilots to dynamically discover, understand, and interact with enterprise data in a governed, context-aware way. This enables organizations to scale GenAI use cases with greater agility, consistency, and control.

The Denodo Platform serves as a single, consolidated gateway for AI applications to access integrated data while offering several other key benefits, including:

A unified, secure access point for large language models (LLM)s to interact with and query all enterprise data

A rich semantic layer, providing LLMs with the needed business context and knowledge, including table descriptions, business definitions, categories/tags, and sample values

Quick delivery of logical data views that are de-coupled and abstracted from the underlying technical data views

Built-in query optimization features that relieve LLMs from managing specific data source constraints or optimized join strategies

Solution benefits

The Denodo Platform makes your organization GenAI-ready, by:

Optimized for RAG

RAG can be powerful — but only if LLMs have access to accurate, well-integrated data. Denodo Query RAG simplifies this by unifying access to production data across SaaS apps, CRMs, ERPs, data lakes, and warehouses. It delivers the context LLMs need, with rich metadata, field descriptions, and business terms — all in the right format for retrieval.

GenAI powered natural language querying

The Denodo Platform democratizes data access by enabling business users to query data in natural language without the need of any special skills, and it enables self-service data preparation by recommending metadata.

Ensuring data privacy and security

The Denodo Platform provides a central layer for enforcing security restrictions that can be defined in terms of the canonical model, with field-level granularity. The Denodo Platform supports user- and role-based authentication and authorization, as well as dynamic masking. This makes the Denodo Platform ideal for enforcing data security for RAG-enabled AI applications and helping organizations to meet a wide variety of regulatory requirements.

Ensuring better data quality and explainability

Poor-quality data can result in incorrect or inconsistent behaviors – “garbage in, garbage out.” GenAI applications also require the ability to demonstrate “data explainability,” which is the ability to specify which data was accessed to produce a given result. The Denodo Platform provides extensive functions and rules to maintain data quality. For every GenAI query initiated, the Denodo Platform logs the query and what data was returned, enabling both transparency and explainability.

Meeting regulatory requirements

With its ability to provide a trusted, secure data foundation and enable explainability and transparency, the Denodo Platform enables organizations to meet the stringent requirements of new regulatory frameworks and guidelines such as the EU AI Act, the U.S. Executive Order on AI, China’s Gen AI standards, and Singapore’s Model Governance Framework for Gen AI.

Built for Deep Research

Going beyond fact retrieval, DeepQuery enables GenAI to analyze, reason, and explain. Denodo powers this by providing real-time access to governed, structured data across systems — enabling LLMs to uncover patterns, root causes, and business drivers in minutes, not days.
