Presented at the annual Databricks Partner Awards during Data + AI Summit, the award recognizes Fivetran’s success in helping joint customers accelerate analytics and AI initiatives through trusted, automated access to governed enterprise data.
The recognition follows a year of strong momentum between Fivetran and Databricks, marked by substantial growth in their shared customer base and continued expansion of joint customer adoption worldwide.
“Organizations are moving quickly from AI experimentation to production, and success depends on having access to trusted, governed data,” said George Fraser, CEO and Co-founder at Fivetran + dbt Labs. “Together with Databricks, we’re helping enterprises create the reliable data foundations and enterprise context needed to power analytics, AI applications, and agentic workflows. This award reflects the impact our teams and customers are achieving together.”
“As the race to productionize AI accelerates, customers consistently ask us how they can better manage their data in order to build AI apps and agents that make a real impact on their business,” said Stephen Orban, SVP, Product Ecosystem & Partnerships at Databricks. “As a key Databricks partner, Fivetran helps our joint customers do exactly that. We’re proud to recognize them as 2026 Databricks ISV Partner of the Year.”
Throughout the past year, Fivetran has deepened its collaboration with Databricks across product innovation, customer success, and go-to-market initiatives. The partnership enables organizations to centralize and operationalize data from hundreds of business-critical applications and databases within the Databricks platform, accelerating time-to-value for analytics, AI applications, and agents.
The partnership has helped customers achieve measurable results, including Inova Health, which compressed a 4-year modernization roadmap into six months, reduced data movement costs by up to 8x, and eliminated a backlog of more than 500 requests while building a foundation for AI applications. Additionally, Superhuman accelerated data integration timelines from months to days, enabling faster reporting, AI-ready workflows, and improved customer outcomes.
The integration with Databricks extends across the platform, including Unity Catalog, Lakehouse, Lakebase, Marketplace, Genie, and Agent Bricks.
