A Practical Guide to Context Management for Data Agents

​Data agents let you query your data warehouse in plain English, but to get answers that are truly accurate for your business, your agents need to know more than SQL. It needs to know your definitions, your business logic, and the meaning behind your data. That's context, and getting it right is the key to consistent, fast agentic analysis. ​Join us for a livestream with Virgil Data on how to unlock the full potential of data agents through context management. ​Using real benchmark data and practical examples, we'll talk through the trade-offs of common approaches to formatting context and give you a framework for writing effective context. Then we'll walk through context considerations you should be thinking about as your team grows, from solo analyst to team to full organization.
