Vendia Distributed Data Clean Rooms lets teams, partners, and customers share data insights while controlling access. Partners can collaborate across clouds and warehouses without adopting the same platform, while using a preferred warehouse for governance and compliance.

Vendia says shared data is compartmentalized in account-isolated workspaces, while its immutable ledger records datasets to support auditability. Customers may specify the cloud providers and regions where their data is stored. The maker says setup can take 15 minutes or less with minimal setup and without professional services. The product is available through web and API access.
