Building the Data Architecture for Trusted Agentic Operations – Splunk in Conversation with IDC

Thursday, November 05, 2026  |  9:00AM–10:00AM PT
Trusted agentic operations require more than AI-ready data or capable agents. They require a continuously governed data architecture that can reach data where it lives, connect context in real time, control cost and sovereignty, and make every action explainable.

In this webinar, Courtney Wright brings together IDC analyst Archana Venkatraman and Mangesh Pimpalkhare, SVP and GM of Splunk Platform, to examine how organizations can move from a data foundation and isolated agent experiments toward an operating model for trusted, economical, sovereign, and auditable agentic operations.

The conversation will connect data, context, action, and governance into a practical architectural model for the agentic era. Following the latest announcements from .conf26, the panel will explore:

  • What customers should expect from a modern data platform
  • How to evaluate competing approaches
  • What it takes to scale AI with confidence, control, and resilience
Join us for a strategic conversation about the architecture behind trusted AI.
