Agora, the Denodo cloud service running on AWS, provides a unified and trusted data access and delivery layer, seamlessly connecting all data sources (whether on-premises, in the cloud, or across hybrid environments) into a single, business-friendly view. By simplifying access to distributed data, Agora establishes a secure, governed foundation for data-driven initiatives, transforming scattered, siloed data into a cohesive, accessible asset for the entire organization.

Designed to integrate with all AWS data services, including Amazon S3, Amazon RDS, and Amazon Redshift, as well as third-party cloud services and legacy on-premises sources, Agora offers over 200 data connectors. This wide connectivity allows organizations to manage distributed data sources seamlessly, presenting them to data consumers as if they were a single, unified source.

A universal semantic layer atop Agora's architecture translates complex data sets into consistent, business-friendly views that make data actionable for all users, regardless of technical expertise. Agora's semantic layer and metadata can also be shared with Large Language Models (LLMs) in Amazon Bedrock, ensuring that these models generate accurate, context-rich responses, enhancing both user trust and business outcomes.

Agora enables organizations to enforce access controls, reporting, auditing, and compliance directly within its unified data layer. By embedding governance alongside data delivery, Agora allows companies to manage risks and ensure compliance across all data sources, without compromising agility or accessibility.

Agora's embedded Data Catalog further enhances this experience by providing a unified view of data assets and services. Users can easily search for relevant data, access it directly, share it with team members, or export it to their preferred business intelligence (BI) environments.

The benefits are substantial: data preparation times for data scientists are reduced by 67%, data delivery speeds increase by 65% compared to traditional ETL methods, and query performance sees a tenfold improvement, all while lowering operational costs.

As a fully managed cloud service available on the AWS Marketplace, Agora provides unmatched flexibility, supporting organizations as they scale their data strategies and harness the potential of distributed data ecosystems.
