Announcing GA of Genie Ontology

Databricks announced the General Availability of Genie Ontology, an agentic ontology layer that agents build by learning from dashboards, SQL queries, notebooks and BI semantic models, while people govern definitions through Unity Catalog semantics. The release adds Genie Search (GA), Ontology Snippets (GA), external knowledge sources (Beta, starting with Power BI), organizational directories (GA, starting with Workday), Domains and Pages (GA), and Ontology Manager (coming soon in Beta). In a benchmark built with Turing simulating a Databricks workspace for a fictional UK energy supplier, Genie answered correctly in 91% of runs versus 45% and 58% for two frontier agents, using less than half the tokens and finishing three to four times faster.
