Visualize your datasets with Cohesity Gaia

Cohesity Gaia, our AI-powered conversational assistant, brings the power of generative AI to enterprise data, dramatically improving the speed and quality of insights available for various use cases. Our solution indexes and provides insight based on data stored in many popular formats, including documents, PDFs, text files, spreadsheets, HTML, XML, and presentations.

We’re introducing a patent-pending visualization capability to Cohesity Gaia that’s transforming how users interact with and understand their data. The new Cohesity Gaia data exploration features use cutting-edge AI and natural language processing to create visual representations of data during indexing, offering unprecedented insights into complex datasets.

Key new features of Cohesity Gaia

• • Visual data mapping: Cohesity Gaia employs sophisticated topic modeling algorithms to uncover hidden thematic structures within documents and files.
    • This process automatically generates a visual framework that sorts data by themes, providing users with an intuitive way to comprehend vast amounts of information, as seen below.

• • Enhanced data comprehension: By acting as a “light bulb” that illuminates the contents of datasets, Cohesity Gaia significantly improves users’ ability to navigate and understand large volumes of information from multiple sources.
    • This feature is particularly valuable for organizations with diverse and extensive data repositories. By giving a high-level summary of a topic, Cohesity Gaia can provide meaningful context for what could be a generic topic name.
  • Intelligent suggestions: The system generates smart question and query suggestions based on its data categorizations. This capability enables users to formulate more informed and relevant questions when interacting with their data—leading to more productive and insightful analyses.

• • Expanded data sources: We’ve also significantly broadened Gaia’s support for various workloads and data sources, including:
    • Microsoft 365 Mail, SharePoint, and OneDrive
    • On-premises or cloud-based file servers
    • Dell Technologies PowerScale or Isilon NAS storage
    • NetApp NAS storage
    • Physical file servers using SMB/CIFS
    • Cohesity SmartFiles

This expansion allows organizations to apply Gaia’s powerful RAG AI search and analysis capabilities across their entire enterprise data estate—regardless of whether it’s stored on-prem or in the cloud.

• • User experience: Cohesity Gaia’s new exploration experience is highly interactive and intuitive. Users can:
    • Click through each identified theme.
    • Ask conversational questions about the data.
    • Interact with context-aware prompts.
    • Quickly locate the most relevant information.

Importantly, all these features are provided while maintaining strict data security and compliance with regulatory requirements, aligning with Cohesity’s commitment to responsible AI practices.

• • Impact on data management: By offering this comprehensive and visual approach to data exploration, Cohesity Gaia empowers users to:
    • Navigate complex information landscapes more effectively.
    • Ask more pertinent and insightful questions.
    • Extract valuable insights with greater ease and efficiency.
    • Make data-driven decisions faster and more confidently.

This innovative feature represents a significant step forward in making enterprise data more accessible, understandable, and actionable for organizations of all sizes.

Additionally, in this update, Cohesity Gaia will introduce:

• Index filtering: Take control of what data is included and excluded from being indexed within Cohesity Gaia.
• Single sign-on (SSO): Integrate Cohesity Gaia with your SSO application to ensure only authorized users can access Cohesity Gaia.
