EnterpriseDB (EDB), the leading sovereign AI and data company, today announced that EDB Postgres AI (EDB PG AI) has been named “Data Management Innovation of the Year” in the 2026 Data Breakthrough Awards, capping a standout first quarter marked by industry recognition and expanding ecosystem adoption.
The recognition underscores EDB’s momentum in defining the infrastructure for the agentic era.
“EDB Postgres AI sets a new standard by turning Postgres into the foundation of a unified data and AI platform that can be deployed anywhere,” said Steve Johansson, Managing Director, Data Breakthrough. “EDB Postgres AI bridges the gap between proprietary data and AI ambitions. With hybrid management and observability across unified workloads, organizations can accelerate innovation and boost operational efficiency while also maintaining control over sovereign environments.”
As the leading steward of open source Postgres, EDB continues its long-standing investment in the world’s most popular database with 30% of contributions, more than the next eight top commercial contributors, according to the 2026 Postgres Vitality Index. This leadership was highlighted at NVIDIA GTC 2026, where EDB PG AI was featured in Jensen Huang’s keynote slide about the “ground truth of AI.”
Through co-innovation across the ecosystem with leaders such as NVIDIA, IBM, Red Hat, and Supermicro, EDB is shaping the next era of enterprise transformation: the agentic workforce. This impact is being met with additional industry accolades:
EDB is further cementing its role as a convener of industry thought leadership through AI & Data Horizons, its podcast hosted by Wall Street Journal bestselling author Michael Gale.

As we’ve heard from visionaries on AI & Data Horizons, the ‘agentic workforce’ demands a radical rethink of the tech stack,” said Michael Gale, CMO at EDB. “EDB is meeting this moment by delivering a sovereign data and AI factory that transforms Postgres from a database into a powerhouse of autonomous intelligence.”
