Cloudera, the only company bringing AI to data anywhere, announced the expansion of its Enterprise AI Ecosystem at EVOLVE26 New York. Building on our Enterprise AI Ecosystem from  2024 and 2025, the expansion strengthens Cloudera Anywhere Cloud as the foundation for enterprise AI factories: environments that continuously turn governed data into insight and autonomous action.

As enterprises move from asking AI questions to entrusting agents with business outcomes, each layer of the architecture matters. Agents need connected knowledge to understand business context, models suited to each task, responsive interfaces, and infrastructure that keeps data flowing. Anywhere Cloud will bring these capabilities together through a consistent operating model across public cloud, private cloud, and on-premises environments—giving customers greater freedom to meet performance, cost, and sovereignty requirements.

“The next competitive advantage will come from how effectively enterprises turn their own knowledge into action,” said Abhas Ricky, Chief Business Officer and GM, Applied AI at Cloudera. “Our ambition is to make every enterprise an AI factory, with the freedom to choose its models, retain control of its data, and improve the economics of every workload. Anywhere Cloud and our expanding ecosystem will connect the capabilities to make that possible—from the first insight to the millionth agentic action.”

Connected knowledge makes agentic action more reliable. Neo4j adds knowledge graphs and semantic context, helping agents query relationships across enterprise data and understand how customers, products, transactions, and business processes connect. Combined with Cloudera’s governed data foundation, this supports the progression from finding information to reasoning over it and taking informed action.

“Our partnership with Cloudera helps organisations create a shared knowledge layer across enterprise data in public and private cloud environments, delivering the critical connection between relational data and deep semantic context. The Cloudera Open Data Lakehouse, in combination with Neo4j’s Graph Intelligence Platform, allows organisations to query massive datasets, uncover hidden relationships, and power next-generation enterprise AI safely across any cloud or on-premises environment,” said Sudhir Hasbe, President & Chief Product Officer at Neo4j.

Sovereign voice brings those capabilities into everyday interactions. Cartesia expands model choice with speech generation and transcription for voice agents operating within customer-controlled environments. Cartesia reports sub-90-millisecond speech-generation latency; its Sonic-3.6 model ranked first on both Artificial Analysis speech arena leaderboards at launch. These capabilities support natural, responsive interactions while helping enterprises retain control of sensitive conversations.
