Unlocking the Power of AI and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) in the Enterprise
Webinar Speaker: Fern Halper, TDWI VP Research, Senior Research Director for Advanced Analytics

Generative AI has changed the landscape of AI. TDWI research indicates that generative AI is the top analytics investment priority for organizations in 2025, as businesses try to use it to drive value. While generative AI large language models offer powerful capabilities, their usefulness is general in nature when it comes to enterprise applications. Organizations are increasingly looking to leverage their own structured data to enhance AI applications with company-specific knowledge. One method to pass company data in a generative AI system is retrieval augmented generation (RAG). RAG can provide data in context to foundation models such as large language models without the need for extensive retraining that can be compute-intensive.
Although TDWI sees some organizations utilizing RAG with their company data, others are struggling because they don’t have the skills or resources required to properly prepare the data and build these kinds of applications. Join this webinar with TDWI’s VP of research, Fern Halper and experts from Informatica and Databricks to learn how Databricks and Informatica are partnering to support this shift.
Topics include:
- The evolution towards using company data in generative AI
- RAG: What it is and how it can be used to support new and innovative generative AI applications
- The data challenges encountered by enterprises trying to deploy generative AI applications
- How Informatica’s GenAI blueprint with Databricks Mosaic AI provides a framework for building enterprise generative AI applications on Databricks, leveraging all supported Mosaic AI large language models
