Salesforce, Databricks And Snowflake $9.3B In Data Deals May Not Pay Off

Before launching artificial intelligence agents, businesses want control over their data. Despite catch up acquisitions, Salesforce, Databricks, and Snowflake could lose that race to EnterpriseDB. Prayer flags on display in a new installation by Jim Campbell, the artist behind "Day for Night," ... More the video show atop Salesforce Tower, after he changed the imagery to deal with the coronavirus pandemic in San Francisco, Calif., on Wednesday, April 1, 2020. At 7 p.m. it will join the clapping hands movement for medical personnel fighting Covid 19. Then it shifts to prayer flags, waving Buddhist imagery. (Photo By Carlos Avila Gonzalez/The San Francisco Chronicle via Getty Images) Salesforce will pay $8 billion to buy data management provider Informatica Databricks will buy database startup Neon for $1 billion Snowflake to acquire another database startup Crunchy Data for $250 million Enterprise DB, an open source database provider, is set to launch a system to empower companies to analyze their own data and use it to build and operate AI agents. In the last month, three leading technology companies announced $9.3 billion worth of deals to acquire data management companies in quick succession. These include: Why this flurry of acquisitions? In a nutshell, companies want to control the data they use to build AI agents about which I wrote in my recent book, Brain Rush. 'We surveyed our customers and the number one topic was sovereign artificial intelligence and data,' Enterprise DB CEO Kevin Dallas told me in a June 5 interview. Controlling their own data is essential for making AI agents that are worth the investment. 'Eighty-seven percent of our customers are talking about this topic,' Dallas told me. 'Fifty percent of our customers plan to invest in their data and AI platforms. Data is a deal differentiator — it drives value to the customer and maket is hard for competitors to replicate,' he added. Dallas joined Enterprise DB — a popular database for transaction-intensive industries such as payment systems, flight reservations, and banking — as CEO in August 2023 aiming to deliver what these customers were asking for. With the upcoming launch of Enterprise DB's product, Dallas sees itself getting a jump on Salesforce, Databricks, and Snowflake. 'They will take the next six to 12 months integrating their acquisitions and we are ahead,' Dallas said. Databricks sees great opportunity ahead from its Neon acquisition. That's because customers are eager to create agents and need to build databases to handle all the data those agents require. 'Pretty much every customer we have is super excited and wants to leverage agents,' Databricks co-founder and CEO Ali Ghodsi told the Journal. Neon's Postrgres technology is a popular way for developers to build those databases, he added. Salesforce — whose shares have fallen 18% this year — is enthusiastic about its partnership with Informatica. By combining Informatica's data management expertise with Salesforce's Agentforce and Data Cloud services, the deal will create the 'most complete, agent-read data platform in the industry', Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff told IT Pro. Snowflake — which has enjoyed a 34.4% stock price appreciation this year — is bullish on the deal's. Crunchy Data will be part of Snowflake Postgres.'The vision here is that Snowflake Postgres will simplify how developers build, deploy and scale agents and apps,' Snowflake senior vice president of engineering Vivek Raghunathan told the Journal Analysts have a mixed view of this acquisition — seeing potential benefits for customers while posing significant integration challenges. Some see the acquisition as helping enterprise users to implement AI agents more quickly. Salesforce customers will be able to access and use customer data — within Salesforce or external systems — to deliver 'actionable insights across every channel and touchpoint,' Forrester Analyst Noel Yuhanna told VentureBeat. 'Critically, it accelerates Salesforce's ability to deploy agentic AI, enabling low-code, low-maintenance AI solutions that reduce complexity and dramatically shorten time to value,' he added. This acquisition will ultimately integrate the capabilities required to build effective AI agents. 'A successful agent strategy depends on the integration of three domains: models, applications and data,' BARC vice president of research Kevin Petrie told VentureBeat. 'Salesforce gains significant strength in the data realm, especially metadata and cataloging, through this acquisition.' The integration problems stem from the overlap between data management and integration tools from Informatica and roughly the same technology from MuleSoft — which Salesforce acquired in 2018, noted ITPro. 'Most enterprises are going to need one platform, for application and data integration,' CEO of SnapLogic and co-founder of Informatica Gaurav Dhillon told ITPro. 'But on the other hand, it will likely create massive turmoil for Informatica (and MuleSoft) customers. That turmoil is inevitable when two legacy integration platforms like MuleSoft and Informatica have to be squeezed down to one; to truly get a grip on important business data about customers, suppliers and markets. This integration could be a 'slow, painful process' that takes years, even if all goes to plan,' he added. The merger of these two companies will help companies build AI agents more quickly. 'Right now, there's no place to be able to track the entire trajectory of software development agents,' app-development startup Replit CEO Amjad Masad told the Journal. 'Databricks' Neon acquisition will make it easier for Replit to manage its agent-building capabilities. We're dying not to have to build everything ourselves,' he added. Since more than 80% of Neon's databases are built automatically rather than by human database administrators, the technology will help enterprises build AI agents more efficiently. 'Neon's serverless autoscaling approach to PostgreSQL is important for AI because it allows agents and AI projects to grow as needed without artificially coupling storage and compute needs together,' said Amalgam Insights CEO and Chief Analyst Hyoun Park, noted VentureBeat. Snowflake's acquisition of Crunchy Data is 'a defensive and offensive maneuver,' noted Futurum Group. 'By moving decisively to own Postgres talent and IP, Snowflake is making a clear statement: the battle for enterprise AI will be won not only with large language models and analytics alone but with the ability to supercharge these technologies,' Futurum Group added. Enterprise DB is growing revenue faster than 20% annually, Dallas said. He envisions the company's upcoming product launch as delivering what customers need. 'We are very clear on what our platform must deliver. Companies want open source (Postgres); transaction, analytics, and AI capabilities, a single pane of glass through which to view their large data estates, shorter time to implement AI agents, and the power to decide where the company runs its agentic AI applications,' he added. Enterprise DB says it is ahead of the competition. 'We are six to 12 months ahead of the market in an AI first, sovereign first world. We have put in a lot of work. Now we get to enjoy. It will be exciting,' Dallas concluded. I look forward to seeing whether any of these rivals can help turn agentic AI into the first killer app for generative AI.

New AT&T data leak links previously exposed info to Social Security numbers, birth dates

In a trend that absolutely no one wants to get behind, another older data leak has been paired with additional customer information to get re-released as a new data leak to expose even more customer info and personal details. As reported by BleepingComputer, an old 2021 AT&T data leak which contained millions of phone numbers has been linked with Social Security numbers and birth dates of the individual users. The company has stated that cybercriminals will commonly repackage previously disclosed data for financial aim, which is what they believe is happening here, and that when they learned of the data going up for sale on the dark web they began a full investigation. While the threat actor who leaked the data onto a popular Russian-speaking hacking forum claimed it was the data stolen during the 2024 AT&T 'Snowflake' cyberattack, which is what was initially reported by HackRead. However, after BleepingComputer analyzed the exposed information, the news outlet determined it was actually from the 2021 data leak which was caused by a hacker dubbed 'ShinyHunters.' This is not the first time the 2021 ShinyHunters data has been leaked or even linked to additional personal information. For instance last year, the data was leaked along with names, addresses, mobile phone numbers, encrypted date of birth, encrypted Social Security numbers and more. This leak has cleaned up that data to remove internal AT&T information and added the unencrypted Social Security numbers and dates of birth to each customer record. There are reportedly over 86 million unique records of this nature, with more than 48 million unique phone numbers that have associated customer information. This is due to customers having multiple records with the same phone number being used at different addresses. Not sure if you were one of the customers affected by these breaches? At this point, if you're an AT&T customer, you should be taking steps to see if you've been affected and then to lock down your own data in order to keep yourself safe. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. As with all data breaches, the biggest threat will be phishing attacks and online fraud. Now that hackers can easily figure out your identity, they might try to reach out to you posing as AT&T. That means you'll need to be extra careful when checking your inbox and messages. Avoid clicking on links or downloading attachments from unknown senders as hackers often set up fake pages to steal your credentials, credit card data and other sensitive info. For this reason, you want to go directly to AT&T's page instead of clicking on any links on search results, social media or even ads that claim to take you to it. If you haven't signed up for one of the best identity theft protection services, now might be a good time to look into them. You can also consider putting fraud alerts on your files with the Big Three credit-reporting agencies Equifax, Experian and TransUnion, and even instituting a credit freeze (although doing so can complicate getting a loan or opening new payment accounts). This 2021 data leak seems to be the gift that keeps on giving for hackers, so I wouldn't be surprised if this stolen info is used in future attacks. Don't worry though as we'll be keeping a close eye on this one.
