We know data is at the heart of every great decision. But let’s be honest—more often than not, accessing and analyzing that data usually means wrangling SQL, waiting on analysts, and juggling way too many tools. All that time could otherwise be spent innovating, scaling, and launching what’s next.
This is why we are thrilled to announce our newest integration with Databricks. By combining Atlassian’s robust collaboration tools with Databricks’ powerful unified data, we are empowering organizations to unlock the full value of their proprietary data through seamless, AI-powered experiences.
We are witnessing unprecedented demand from enterprise customers who want to leverage AI to accelerate insights and analysis. That’s why we are excited to collaborate with Atlassian and make it easier than ever for customers, regardless of their function, to harness their own data to make meaningful decisions using capabilities like Genie and Agent Bricks.
—Barry Dauber, VP of GenAI GTM, Databricks

Building the Future of Work—Together
The launch of Databricks Query Runner is just the beginning of the data sharing partnership we announced with Databricks earlier this year. Using the Delta Sharing protocol, the partnership unlocks new data sharing capabilities from Atlassian Analytics. With Databricks, we are instantly doubling the amount of data to pull insights from, enabling customers everywhere to turn data into action effortlessly.
Next, we will be launching the Databricks Connector, which will enable users to easily search for Databricks tables and dashboards—all within Rovo! The Databricks Connector will be available later this year.
The future of work is here.
