Data & Analytics Platforms¶
This cohort is intentionally separated from the enterprise platforms above — the data/analytics space differs materially in target buyer, deployment shape, and where AI fits in. Three platforms in scope: Snowflake, Databricks, Palantir.
Two matrices live on this page: one for platform fundamentals (Tier B), one for native AI features (Tier C). Both currently show placeholders; populated during Phases 3.
