TLDR: Arctic Wolf has announced a strategic alliance with Databricks to integrate the Databricks Data Intelligence Platform into its Aurora Platform. This collaboration aims to significantly scale Arctic Wolf’s AI-powered security operations, improve real-time threat detection, and enhance its Managed Detection and Response (MDR) capabilities by efficiently processing massive volumes of security telemetry.
EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. – July 30, 2025 – Arctic Wolf, a global leader in security operations, today unveiled a significant partnership with Databricks, a prominent data and AI company. This alliance is set to further scale and support the rapid growth of the Arctic Wolf Aurora Platform, a leading open security operations platform. By integrating the Databricks Data Intelligence Platform into the Aurora Platform’s data pipeline, Arctic Wolf is poised to enhance its capacity to process vast volumes of security telemetry in real time, delivering swift and scalable security outcomes to its expanding global customer base.
Modern security operations are increasingly challenged by the sheer volume and complexity of data. As organizations adopt a growing array of security tools and cloud applications, security teams face an exponential increase in telemetry across all attack surfaces. The immense volume, diversity, and velocity of this data make it exceptionally difficult to detect threats, respond promptly, and confidently mitigate risks. Without a platform designed to operate at this scale, even well-resourced teams can become overwhelmed, potentially missing critical attacks.
Arctic Wolf is directly addressing this challenge by building one of the most scalable, open, and high-performing platforms in the cybersecurity industry. The Aurora Platform currently ingests and processes more than eight trillion security observations each week and over 300 petabytes of data annually. With the Databricks Data Intelligence Platform now deeply integrated into its foundation, Arctic Wolf can accelerate the unification of telemetry from diverse sources, including endpoints, cloud applications, identity systems, and firewalls, into a single, high-throughput environment.

Dan Schiappa, president of technology and services at Arctic Wolf, highlighted the data challenge in an interview, stating, “We collect a massive amount of data. I think we’re approaching 9 trillion security observations a week now and it’s very hard for technology to keep up with that amount of [data] ingestion. We collect it now from over 100 data sources—third party and our own—and we analyze it.” This deep integration between the two companies’ technologies is expected to fuel the rapid evolution of the Aurora Platform and empower Arctic Wolf’s AI-powered Security Operations Center (SOC) to deliver enhanced threat detection and response to its rapidly growing global customer community.
