In our first session, we looked at how Databricks makes it easier to build data pipelines and turn raw data into clean, usable datasets. So what happens next, once the data is ready?
This session is about asking questions of that data in plain language and getting trusted answers back through a tour of Genie One, Genie Agents, Genie Ontology and the Genie One MCP Server. Presenting Databricks Champion, 7x Certified and Databricks Certified Technical Instructor Alia Podrezova, she will walk through the Genie family on Databricks and show how it is growing into a data-smart coworker that any AI agent can tap into. You will leave with a clear picture of how clean data, business context and Genie make data usable across the organization.

This session works for you whether you're a student or recent grad getting started in data, an early-career data engineer or analyst, or someone curious about how AI agents actually connect to real business data.
