Databricks makes Genie Ontology generally available

Databricks announced the general availability of Genie Ontology, a shared layer of business context that its Genie agents build from dashboards, SQL queries, notebooks and semantic models, and that people govern through Unity Catalog. The release adds Genie Search over enterprise knowledge, extends learning to BI tools and organizational directories, and introduces an Ontology Manager for curation, alongside GA of Unity Catalog Domains and Pages. Databricks says the context is also reachable through Genie MCP by agents such as ChatGPT, Claude and Microsoft Copilot. In a benchmark built with Turing, Databricks reports that Genie with Genie Ontology passed 91% of enterprise task runs, 1.6 times the strongest frontier agent, while using less than half the tokens.
