LakehouseIQ is a knowledge engine that learns the unique nuances of your business and data to power natural language access to it for a wide range of use cases. Any employee in your organization can use LakehouseIQ to search, understand and query data in natural language. LakehouseIQ uses information about your data, usage patterns and org chart to understand your business’s jargon and unique data environment, and give significantly better answers than native use of large language models (LLMs).

LakehouseIQ is a first-of-its-kind knowledge engine that directly solves this problem by automatically learning about business and data concepts in your enterprise. It uses signals from across the Databricks Lakehouse Platform, including Unity Catalog, dashboards, notebooks, data pipelines, and docs, leveraging the unique end-to-end nature of the Databricks platform to see how data is used in practice.

Databricks Assistant

The first AI surface most Databricks users will see is the new Assistant in our SQL editor and notebooks that can write queries, explain them and answer questions. The Assistant relies heavily on LakehouseIQ to find and understand the right data for each activity and give accurate answers.
