Summary

CData promotes its Connect AI platform at The AI Summit London 2026, arguing that many enterprise AI initiatives stall because data is fragmented, inconsistent, inaccessible, or insufficiently governed rather than because models underperform. The managed Model Context Protocol platform connects AI tools and agents to live data across hundreds of cloud, on-premises, legacy, and custom systems without data replication or custom connector development, while presenting a normalized interface. Its governance approach applies existing source-system permissions through identity passthrough, OAuth 2.1, PKCE, SSO, least-privilege controls, and audit logging, aiming to control access before data reaches AI models. CData also contends that current, consistently defined, authorized data can reduce hallucinations and improve agent accuracy. The company will exhibit live demonstrations at booth 313 at Tobacco Dock in London on June 10–11, 2026, targeting technology, data, IT, and AI leaders addressing data-access, governance, RAG, and integration challenges.
