lakeFS Acquires DVC, Uniting Data Version Control Pioneers to Accelerate AI-Ready Data
The AI agent revolution is here. Coding agents like Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex are writing production software. Infrastructure agents are provisioning cloud resources. Data agents are transforming pipelines and updating dashboards. The trajectory is clear: agents will do more, not less. But there’s a pattern hiding in plain sight, one that explains why coding […]
Free Virtual Event for Enterprise AI Leaders Building AI that works in production is hard. For most enterprise teams, the biggest obstacle isn’t the model, it’s the data behind it. Study after study shows that organizations abandon AI projects due to poor data quality and inadequate data infrastructure. The gap between AI ambition and AI
This post recaps a comprehensive tutorial published by Alex Merced from Dremio and Tal Sofer from lakeFS, highlighting how version control transforms multimodal data management for AI teams. The Challenge: Keeping Diverse Data Types in Sync and Queriable Modern AI pipelines consume more than just structured data. Training sets include images, model artifacts, logs, and
From Inspiration to Action When we were still dreaming up lakeFS, one of the projects that inspired us was DVC (Data Version Control). It was one of those moments when you realize – “Ah, others see it too.” We weren’t alone in believing that data should be managed like code. DVC was built by data
We’re excited to share that lakeFS has been named a Representative Vendor in the 2025 Gartner® Market Guide for DataOps Tools. We believe this recognition reflects what we’re seeing across the industry: the urgent need for data infrastructures that can provide AI-ready data efficiently, repeatably, and safely as organizations build production AI systems. DataOps Market
This article is a summary of a joint session, Why Data Is Killing Your AI Project and What to Do About It, featuring a great panel of experts: The past year saw companies and teams weather a rollercoaster of highs and lows, riding the hype cycle of AI excitement followed by disillusionment. Most teams are
Yesterday, OpenAI launched gpt-oss-120b and gpt-oss-20b, marking the company’s first open-weight models since GPT-2 in 2019. This strategic shift represents far more than a product release—it signals a fundamental transformation in how large organizations, particularly in regulated industries, approach AI infrastructure and data management. OpenAI’s Strategic Return to Open Source The gpt-oss models—gpt-oss-120b and gpt-oss-20b—are
While AI’s promise of increased efficiency and innovation is clear, executing on it is proving to be a major challenge, especially at scale. At lakeFS, we’ve been at the center of this challenge since the beginning. And today, we are excited to announce a $20 million growth funding round, which helps us to double down
Open source software has fundamentally reshaped technology—delivering unmatched flexibility, low friction, and rapid innovation. For some teams, it’s a philosophical commitment. For others, it’s the fastest path to building. lakeFS supports both models. For most data teams, the journey starts with open source and evolves over time. lakeFS open source offers a robust foundation for
It usually starts the same way. A late night message pops up in the channel: “Which v5_final dataset did we use to train the model that just failed in production?” You sigh, open three S3 buckets, and begin the forensic treasure hunt.If that sounds familiar, you’ve already built a portion of an AI Factory. And
Since 2021, we’ve published the annual State of Data Engineering Report, which includes a summary of all key categories that directly impact data engineering infrastructure. In 2025, we see five primary trends that influence the categories that will be covered in this report. Trend #1: MLOps space is slowly diminishing The MLOps space is slowly
In today’s data-driven world, businesses don’t just rely on data – they are built on it. But as data infrastructure sprawls across on-prem systems, multiple cloud providers, and third-party platforms, a new challenge is taking center stage: distributed data management. It’s a silent bottleneck with loud consequences. Challenges in Distributed Data Management Managing data across
