## Agentic AI

### Workload API

The [Workload API](https://docs.datarobot.com/en/docs/install/install-config/advanced-configuration/workload-api/index.html) is available as a premium feature. Bring a container image, get a stable URL with autoscaling, monitoring, sharing, and a lifecycle you drive end-to-end, from day-one development to production rollouts.

The Workload API works with any container that listens on HTTP. Use it to deploy agent services, model inference servers, RAG pipelines, MCP servers, and custom applications as governed Workloads on the DataRobot platform. Define what runs as a versioned artifact—the container image, ports, health probes, and resource requirements—and iterate on it as a draft before locking it for production. Every Workload gets a stable invoke URL, an importance level for resource prioritization, and a sharing model that grants access by user, group, organization, or role. Resource bundles control per-container CPU, memory, and GPU allocation, alongside capacity settings for throughput quotas, entity capacity floors, and rate limits.

Shipping a new container version—a model upgrade, a bug fix, a dependency bump—shouldn't mean a new endpoint for consumers to rewire. Roll it out instead as a rolling replacement: the platform brings up a candidate proton alongside the active one, shifts traffic once it passes readiness checks, and drains the old version, with configurable warmup and rollback windows. Promote a draft Workload to production in place, keeping its identity, endpoint, and configuration intact.

Built-in OpenTelemetry integration surfaces logs, traces, and metrics in Console without extra configuration. Manage Workloads through Console, the DataRobot CLI, or as infrastructure-as-code with the DataRobot Pulumi provider; or hand deployment, scaling, and debugging to Claude Code, Cursor, OpenCode, and other coding agents with the `datarobot-workload-api` skill.

For more information, see the [Workload API documentation](https://docs.datarobot.com/en/docs/install/install-config/advanced-configuration/workload-api/index.html).

### Agentic memory service

DataRobot's new agentic memory service extends the platform with persistent memory for AI agents, letting users build context-aware agents that remember past conversations and useful facts across sessions without building or operating custom storage. Memory spaces are isolated containers for organizing agent memories and chat sessions; semantic memory includes row-level security so context stays private and does not leak between users or apps.

Only one integration path is needed per application. Choose the approach that fits the stack:

- Chat history API : Persist conversation history through sessions and append-only events (messages, tool outputs, and status changes) via DataRobot's REST API and Python client, using the same authentication patterns as the rest of the platform. Sessions support configurable lifecycle strategies, such as TTL-based expiration.
- Mem0-compatible API : Best for existing Mem0 users. Use the standard Mem0 MemoryClient and the same concepts as the open-source Mem0 stack to add, search, and update long-term semantic memory, a good fit when porting an existing integration or wiring Mem0-compatible agentic frameworks such as CrewAI, LangGraph, and LlamaIndex.

See [Agentic memory service](https://docs.datarobot.com/en/docs/agentic-ai/agentic-develop/agentic-memory-service.html.md) for guidance on choosing an integration path and quickstart workflows. For API reference, see the [Python client](https://docs.datarobot.com/en/docs/api/dev-learning/python/genai/agentic-memory.html.md).

### Mem0 memory in NAT workflows

The [DataRobot Agentic Starter application template](https://github.com/datarobot-community/datarobot-agent-application) now natively supports [Mem0](https://mem0.ai/) (a smart, long-term memory layer for AI). This allows you to add persistent, per-user memory to your agents without needing to install the separate `nvidia-nat-mem0ai` plugin. Mem0 automatically isolates memories by user based on their workflow session identity, meaning agents remember past context across sessions without leaking data between different users.

To enable the memory feature:

1. Install the NVIDIA Agent Toolkit (NAT) extra extension by running pip install "datarobot-genai[nat]" .
2. Set the MEM0_API_KEY as an environment variable in the .env file.
3. Configure a dr_mem0_memory provider under the standard NAT memory configuration block.
4. Wrap the agent with NAT’s auto_memory_agent workflow to automatically capture and retrieve memories across sessions; memories stay isolated per user based on the workflow session identity.

For more details, see [Agent memory](https://github.com/datarobot-community/datarobot-agent-application/blob/main/docs/agent/agent-memory.md) in the Agentic Starter template documentation.

### DataRobot experimentation plugin

This release introduces the [DataRobot experimentation plugin](https://docs.datarobot.com/en/docs/agentic-ai/cli/local-experimentation/index.html.md) ( `dr xp`), a [DataRobot CLI](https://docs.datarobot.com/en/docs/agentic-ai/cli/index.html.md) plugin that runs a local dashboard for visualizing tracing and run data. Inspect traces, logs, and spans without deploying to the platform to test agent behavior.

Install with `dr plugin install xp`, then start the dashboard with `dr xp --entity-id <use-case-id>`. The plugin supports Use Cases, deployments, custom applications, and workloads. For supported entity types and configuration options, see the [DataRobot experimentation plugin documentation](https://docs.datarobot.com/en/docs/agentic-ai/cli/local-experimentation/index.html.md).

## Data

### Enhancements for SQL execution against data stores and JDBC connections

DataRobot now supports parameter binding for UCF query migration endpoints, including preview and execute endpoints for JDBC connections and data stores. This update significantly improves the experience when executing these queries for agents and applications, which issue several preview/execute calls per task, by increasing security and reducing latency.

## Predictive AI

### Custom scoring metric

A new custom scoring metric resource is available through the REST API (v2.47): a named, versioned bundle ( `metadata.yml` and `custom_metrics.py`) that defines one or more custom Python scoring metrics for a regression, binary, or multiclass target type.

For the full set of changes, see the [REST API changelog](https://docs.datarobot.com/en/docs/api/reference/changelogs/rest-changelog/index.html.md).

## Platform

### Agentic spans and storage metering in Usage Explorer

The Usage Explorer now tracks two additional metering categories: agentic spans and storage. These metrics extend usage visibility to platform observability services—such as Agentic Observability and Predictive Observability—alongside the existing GPU, LLM API, and CPU usage views.

The new Agentic Spans page shows span usage broken down by service, resource name, cloud provider, region, unit cost per 1,000 spans, total spans consumed, and current cost. The new Storage page provides a parallel breakdown for storage consumption, with unit cost expressed per gigabyte and usage quantity reported in gigabytes.

To access either view, open Account settings > Usage Explorer and select Agentic Spans or Storage. All usage data can be filtered by date range and exported as a `.csv` file. The list of services tracked in the Usage Explorer has also been expanded; see [Usage Explorer](https://docs.datarobot.com/en/docs/platform/acct-settings/acct-usage-explore.html.md) for the full list.

### OpenTelemetry trace, log, and metric retention now configurable

System administrators can now configure how long OpenTelemetry (OTel) traces, logs, and metrics are retained for each organization, replacing the previous fixed 30-day period.

Retention is set per organization and per signal type—traces, logs, and metrics can each use a different policy. Available durations are 14, 30, 60, 90, 180, or 360 days. If no policy is set explicitly, DataRobot applies a 14-day default to trial organizations and a 30-day default to standard organizations. The policy applies uniformly to all users in the organization; there is no per-user or per-team setting.

To configure retention, a system administrator navigates to Admin settings > Organizations, selects the target organization, and clicks Telemetry retention. From there, each signal type has its own dropdown to select a retention duration, and clicking Save applies the new policy. For full steps, see [Configure OTel retention](https://docs.datarobot.com/en/docs/platform/admin/otel-retention.html.md).

### Automate user provisioning with SCIM

System for Cross-domain Identity Management (SCIM) automates user provisioning and deprovisioning in DataRobot through your identity provider (IdP)—either Okta or EntraID. With SCIM configured, the IdP manages user lifecycle events, so IT administrators are no longer required to manually add, move, or remove an employee in DataRobot. For information on enabling and configuring SCIM, see [SCIM provisioning](https://docs.datarobot.com/en/docs/platform/admin/scim.html.md).

### Azure Key Vault support added

You can now use an Azure Key Vault instance as global persistent storage for credentials, secure configuration, and other secrets used in DataRobot workflows. See [secrets management service](https://docs.datarobot.com/en/docs/install/install-config/advanced-configuration/security/secrets-management-service.html) documentation for details.

### Review Use Case assets before sharing

Before sharing a Use Case, you can now [view a list of assets currently linked to it](https://docs.datarobot.com/en/docs/workbench/nxt-workbench/usecases/build-usecase.html.md#review-assets-to-be-shared), providing greater visibility into what new members will be able to access. To view a list of assets, from the sharing modal, click the Assets tab. The list displays each asset currently associated with the Use Case, grouped by type. Click on a grouping to view the specific assets included. Additionally, when a Use Case is shared, deployments, applications, and registered models linked to it are also shared.

### OAuth token exchange

Token exchanges via a configured trusted issuer's access token can be exchanged for a DataRobot issued access token. That can then be used to access DataRobot APIs. Specifically, there will now be an OAuth2 server in every DataRobot installation and all DataRobot APIs are instrumented to accept access tokens that will be issued by this OAuth2 server.
