Zuar and CData Partner to Accelerate AI-Ready Data Experiences

Partnership expands Zuar's native connectivity by 10x, empowering organizations to build AI Centers of Excellence and deliver transformative data experiences.

AUSTIN, TX, UNITED STATES, September 1, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Austin, TX — Zuar, the Data Experience Platform, today announced a strategic partnership with CData, dramatically expanding the platform's native connectivity and strengthening its vision for helping organizations build AI Centers of Excellence.

By integrating CData's enterprise connectivity platform, Zuar now provides access to hundreds of enterprise applications, cloud platforms, databases, APIs, and SaaS systems through a unified integration framework - expanding its native connectivity by more than tenfold.

As organizations increasingly look to operationalize artificial intelligence, success depends on more than powerful models. It requires trusted, governed access to enterprise data combined with intuitive experiences that allow people to interact with that data naturally. Together, CData and Zuar provide both the AI data layer and the AI experience layer - helping organizations transform disconnected information into trusted, actionable intelligence.

"AI has fundamentally changed how organizations think about analytics," said Whitney Myers, CEO of Zuar. "Businesses no longer want dashboards alone; they want intelligent experiences that allow employees, customers, and partners to ask questions, explore data conversationally, and make better decisions. Our partnership with CData gives organizations access to hundreds of enterprise data sources while enabling Zuar to deliver secure, governed, AI-powered experiences on top of that foundation."

The partnership advances Zuar's mission of helping organizations establish AI Centers of Excellence by combining data automation, semantic modeling, embedded analytics, and conversational AI into a single platform built around trusted enterprise data.

Organizations can now:
• Connect to hundreds of enterprise systems through a unified integration framework.
• Create AI-ready data foundations with trusted governance and semantic context.
• Reduce the complexity and cost of integrating new data sources.
• Deliver secure, embedded, and white-labeled analytics experiences to customers, employees, and partners.
• Enable conversational analytics and AI-powered applications built on trusted enterprise information.

Rather than simply centralizing data, the combined platform enables organizations to create transformative data experiences - bringing insights directly into the workflows where decisions are made and empowering stakeholders to interact with enterprise data through natural language, intelligent applications, and embedded analytics.

" Production AI doesn't fail at the model layer anymore, it usually fails at the data layer," said Amit Naik, CData Vice President of AI Architecture. "By embedding CData's connectivity directly into the Zuar platform, Zuar gives its customers live, governed access to hundreds of enterprise systems without having to build and maintain that connectivity themselves. That's the infrastructure that makes AI features work reliably in a customer's environment, not just in a demo."

The enhanced connectivity capabilities are available immediately as part of the Zuar Data Experience Platform and support organizations ranging from growing businesses to global enterprises seeking to modernize analytics, embedded reporting, and AI initiatives.
