The quality and reliability of business decisions, AI models, and operational workflows are only as good as the data that powers them. As organizations increasingly embrace lakehouse architectures and build AI-native data platforms on Databricks, a persistent challenge remains: the ability to accurately and consistently resolve entity data across fragmented sources.
Reltio now offers Reltio Embedded Entity Resolution, a Databricks approved built-on solution on the Databricks' Marketplace, empowering enterprises to resolve entity data—directly within the Databricks' environment—with the precision and scalability trusted by leading global brands.

Why Entity Resolution Matters in the Age of AI
AI initiatives are accelerating, but their success hinges on high-fidelity, contextual, and connected data. Entity resolution—the process of identifying, linking, and consolidating records that refer to the same real-world entity—is foundational to this effort.
Without entity resolution, organizations face:
-
Redundant and conflicting individuals’ profiles
-
Biased AI models due to noisy or duplicated inputs
-
Inefficient operations and degraded customer experiences
Reltio brings years of expertise in resolving complex data with machine learning-assisted matching and scalability —all now available natively in Databricks.
