More so because most enterprise teams haven’t dealt with this kind of data governance before, echoed Jena.
“Central warehouse governance is a solved problem. Sandbox-level state isn’t, and Databricks just moved early on it. Every CIO evaluating agent platforms should be asking vendors the same question: how does state get secured and torn down inside an agent, not just inside the central database?” Jena added.
That sandbox-level state, Jha pointed out, also adds security concerns: “Distributing state across agent sandboxes expands the attack surface and fragments governance, forcing enterprises to extend access control, audit, and compliance frameworks beyond a single database perimeter into hundreds of ephemeral local instances.”
