Meet Cosmos Thrace at Databricks Data + AI Summit 2026 in San Francisco

Cosmos Thrace will be at Databricks Data + AI Summit 2026, taking place June 15–18 in San Francisco and virtually. The summit brings together data leaders, engineers, architects, AI teams and Databricks customers for keynotes, training, certification, product sessions and practical discussions around data, analytics and AI.

If you are attending the summit and looking for a Databricks implementation partner, Databricks managed services partner, or a practical team to help you get more value from your Lakehouse investment, we would be happy to meet.

Idan Harel, Managing Partner at Cosmos Thrace, will be in San Francisco during the summit and available for meetings with customers, Databricks teams, technology partners and enterprise leaders who want to turn Databricks from a platform into measurable business value.

Why meet Cosmos Thrace at the summit?

Databricks Data + AI Summit is the right place to learn what is possible with the Databricks Data Intelligence Platform. But after the keynotes, demos and product announcements, many companies face the same practical question:

How do we implement Databricks properly, securely and cost-effectively in our own environment?

That is where Cosmos Thrace can help.

Cosmos Thrace is a pure-play Databricks consulting and implementation partner in Europe, focused on helping enterprises design, migrate, optimize and operate Databricks platforms. We work with customers that need senior delivery, clear architecture, strong governance and implementation work that survives real production workloads.

We help companies move from ideas and pilots to working Databricks platforms across data engineering, analytics, AI, governance and managed operations.

Databricks implementation services we can discuss in San Francisco

If you are attending the summit because your company is planning, evaluating or already using Databricks, we can help you think through the next step.

Cosmos Thrace supports enterprises with:

Databricks Lakehouse implementation

We design and build Databricks Lakehouse platforms that support real data workloads, not only demo environments. This includes workspace design, environment setup, data architecture, ingestion patterns, Delta Lake, Medallion Architecture and production-ready engineering practices.

Databricks migration

We help companies migrate from legacy data warehouses, fragmented ETL tools, Spark environments, on-premise platforms, Snowflake, Hadoop or custom data platforms into Databricks. The focus is not only moving workloads, but improving performance, governance, cost control and maintainability.

Unity Catalog and data governance

Many Databricks projects fail to scale because governance is added too late. We help implement Unity Catalog, permissions, data access models, lineage, workspace structure, governance policies and audit-ready controls from the beginning.

Databricks cost optimization and FinOps

Databricks can create major value, but only when cost is managed correctly. We review cluster usage, jobs, compute policies, serverless usage, pipeline design, workspace setup and operational habits to reduce waste and improve cost predictability.

Databricks AI and ML implementation

We help teams move from AI experiments to production AI use cases on Databricks, including MLflow, Mosaic AI, RAG, LLM applications, AI agents, model governance and data pipelines that support reliable AI workloads.

Databricks managed services

After implementation, companies need continuous support. Cosmos Thrace can provide Databricks managed services for platform operations, monitoring, performance tuning, cost control, governance support, pipeline reliability and ongoing improvements.

Who should meet us at Data + AI Summit?

You should speak with Cosmos Thrace at the summit if you are asking questions like:

• Which Databricks partner should we choose for implementation?
• How do we migrate to Databricks without disrupting the business?
• How do we reduce Databricks costs?
• How do we implement Unity Catalog correctly?
• How do we build a Lakehouse architecture that can scale?
• How do we move AI and LLM use cases into production?
• How do we operate Databricks after go-live?
• How do we replace legacy ETL, data warehouse or Hadoop workloads with Databricks?
• How do we improve performance of existing Databricks jobs and pipelines?
• How do we build a European Databricks delivery model with senior engineers and nearshore efficiency?

If any of these are on your agenda for the summit, we should talk.
