Enterprise software companies are treating such platforms, which help AI grasp corporate context and play an operating system role, as strategically important. Microsoft, Snowflake, Adobe and SAP have highlighted products and strategies focused on context layers, governance and services for AI agents, while interest also rises in PCs and chips running AI locally.

A battle over data access is emerging as more companies block outside products from connecting to their platforms, with Microsoft joining the trend. Databricks was blocked from linking its platform data to Microsoft Power BI during tests of a new feature. Rivals are pushing standards for semantic layers, while SAP restricts external agent access through its API policy.

SAP executives defended the policy as governance for a multi-tenant platform.
