5 Questions Every Dremio Customer Should Ask About the SAP Deal

Following SAP’s acquisition of Dremio, the piece advises customers to continue using existing deployments while assessing longer-term effects on product roadmaps, cross-platform connectivity, portability, governance, and AI workloads. It recommends asking whether promised features will remain funded, whether the platform can maintain native access to data outside the SAP ecosystem, whether table formats and catalogs preserve the ability to move workloads, and whether security policies, definitions, and audit trails apply consistently across all queried sources. It also emphasizes that AI agents need current, governed access to data across databases, warehouses, SaaS applications, and lakes to avoid producing confident conclusions from incomplete information. Rather than urging a full replacement of Dremio or rejecting SAP integration, the piece advocates selectively moving data when necessary and using a data-federation approach to provide access to distributed data while preserving existing investments and vendor flexibility.
