Data Formulator 0.7: Open-Source AI System for Enterprise Data Analysis

Microsoft Research has introduced Data Formulator 0.7, an open-source system for AI-based enterprise data analysis. It combines data connectivity, agent-driven exploration, and visualization refinement in a single workspace. The Data Connectors feature supports managed and reusable connections to databases, data warehouses, BI systems, object stores, and local files, reducing integration work for platform teams. Context-aware agents help prepare data, explore, generate visualizations, and manage long-running and branching analytical processes. The interactive multimodal interface allows teams to iteratively explore and refine analysis across disparate data sources without needing SQL or programming knowledge. Data Formulator 0.7 is available on GitHub.
