Streaming Live from SF: Deep Dish Data | Agentic Data Engineering Launch and more

Hi Data and AI Leaders,

Matillion’s Deep Dish Data is streaming live from San Francisco during Snowflake Summit week—and this episode is all about the rise of the Agentic Data Team.

Join industry pros as they unpack how today’s most effective data teams are cutting through red tape and delivering AI-ready pipelines with autonomy, speed, and trust.

You’ll hear from:

  • Tom Ridings – Host & Principal PM at Matillion

  • Joe Reis – Industry thought leader & co-author of Fundamentals of Data Engineering

  • Srinivasan Swaminatha – Head of Data & GenAI at TEKsystems

What you’ll gain:

  • Real examples of how agentic teams are structured

  • Lessons learned from real-life orchestration and automation strategies

  • A candid look at what’s working (and not) in the age of AI-driven data work

📍 Bonus: One night. One epic party. Limited space.

The party everyone’s talking about is back.
Matillion is taking over SPIN San Francisco—right next to Moscone—for inSPINity, the high-energy after-party you’ll still be talking about long after Summit ends.

Join us for an unforgettable night of music, drinks, great food, ping pong, and genuine connection with the data community.

📍 Tuesday, June 3
🕖 7:00 PM – 12:00 AM
 📍 SPIN San Francisco
 🎉 Hosted by Matillion, AWS, and TEKsystems

Most data engineers aren’t asking for more tools.
They’re asking for less work that doesn’t feel like engineering.

That’s exactly what Ascend is trying to solve with the launch of its Agentic Data Engineering Platform—a ground-up rethinking of how pipelines are built, maintained, and understood.

Here’s what’s new:

Unified Metadata Core
Tracks schema changes, lineage, state, and execution diffs—automatically.

DataAware Automation Engine
Programmable, event-driven logic that understands pipeline context. No bolted-on orchestration.

Built-in AI Agents That Actually Help
Engineers can now:

  • Get summaries of what changed while they were out

  • Auto-generate onboarding guides for new teammates

  • Trace full column lineage in seconds

  • Flag data quality issues and suggest tests

  • Summarize weekly contributions for 1:1s

  • Even help prep resumes with real impact data

Why this matters:
Engineers spend too much time explaining, documenting, and babysitting their own work. Ascend’s platform uses real-time context and AI agents to reduce that burden—so teams can focus on building.
