WWC26-NA - Beyond SQL Generation: How to Teach Agents What Your Database Actually Means

Why watch

This talk explains how coding agents like Claude can write correct SQL but fail to fetch the right answers because they lack domain knowledge. The solution is implementing a semantic model—an open standard that teaches agents what your database columns and relationships actually mean. A single semantic model file can transform an agent from hallucinating answers to one-shotting correct results, eliminating the need for agents to guess at table joins and column meanings.
