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.
