Collibra has joined Snowflake's Open Semantic Interchange (OSI) Consortium, enabling an 'open kitchen' model for enterprise data. The integration combines Snowflake's data cloud with Collibra's active governance to provide business users with transparent data lineage and metric definitions, while giving data engineers semantic context for AI model development. Key capabilities include unstructured data governance for Snowflake Stages, automated compliance via Row Access Policies and Dynamic Data Masking, a governed semantic layer delivered via MCP or OSI formats to prevent AI hallucinations, and AI model lineage tracking in Snowpark. The partnership supports open standards like Apache Iceberg and Polaris Catalog to avoid vendor lock-in.
