Data, analytics, and AI leaders running or evaluating Databricks who need their analytics, ML, and AI agent initiatives to reach critical data that stays on-prem for sovereignty, latency, or scale reasons, without building replication pipelines or additional infrastructure.

MinIO was named 2026 Databricks ISV Storage Partner of the Year for natively embedding the OpenSharing protocol directly into AIStor, letting Databricks query on-prem Delta and Iceberg tables through Unity Catalog with no separate sharing server, replication pipeline, or extra infrastructure to maintain.
Access is read-only and tightly scoped: each shared table is accessed through short-lived, presigned links and bearer tokens that can be set to expire, and token revocation or table removal from a share takes effect immediately across Databricks.
This approach delivers faster time to insight by eliminating data movement delays, lowers cost by removing duplicate pipelines and copies of data, and reduces risk since fewer systems and copies mean a smaller compliance and security footprint, all while keeping data in an open, non-proprietary table format.
