Data engineering is now enterprise-critical

Alteryx named a Leader in the 2026 Dresner Data Engineering Market Study

Alteryx is named a Leader in the 2026 Dresner Data Engineering Market Study.

Why it matters: Data engineering has become foundational to BI success and AI strategy.

According to the report:

  • 48% of organizations rate data engineering as critical
  • 80% say it is critical or very important
  • 68% prefer best-of-breed vendors
  • Organizations with the highest BI ROI place the strongest priority on data engineering

This signals a shift that data engineering has evolved from an operational consideration to a strategic infrastructure.

Enterprises treating AI as a cornerstone strategy overwhelmingly rate data engineering as critical. Larger organizations that manage greater data complexity do the same.

Alteryx delivers the development, integration, and deployment capabilities modern data engineering demands, in a unified platform recognized as market-leading.
