As part of the September/Q3 product release, we enabled Smarter Search Results across all clusters except westeurope-1.  For westeurope-1, we’re currently working on stability improvements. To avoid introducing additional changes while that work is ongoing, we’ll enable Smarter Search Results there once those improvements are complete.Smarter Search Results is improving how data is analyzed to provide more relevant and precise search results. See more information about this improvement in the linked documentation.  

AI assistants work best when they can tap into the right context. We're excited to share that Cognite now offers Model Context Protocol (MCP) connectors! These connectors bring official documentation and community knowledge directly into tools like Cursor, VS Code, and Claude. Cognite Docs MCPCognite's docs MCP server gives your IDE live access to our full documentation suite, including guides, API references, and code examples. This ensures your AI assistant can answer CDF implementation questions with current, accurately cited information.How to connect: Open any page at docs.cognite.com. Click Copy MCP Server (located in the top right corner). Choose Connect to Cursor, Connect to VS Code, or simply copy the MCP URL to use with other tools.

I had the honor of attending NVIDIA GTC 2026 alongside our Principal AI Architect, Peet Cremer, our Head of Cognite Atlas AI, Justin Lawyer, and our SVP of Partners & Alliances, Trygve Ronnigen. Between Jensen Huang's visionary keynote and the buzzing energy at the Microsoft Pavilion, one thing is clear: we aren't just talking about "cool AI" anymore - we are talking about AI that works in the physical, messy, and complex world of heavy industry.Our team spent the week diving deep into the next generation of compute and intelligence. Here are the core insights we’re bringing back from the ground. Key Takeaways from the GTC FloorThe pace of innovation is accelerating, and NVIDIA's latest announcements are shifting the goalposts for what's possible in industrial AI:Security for the Agentic Era: As we move toward autonomous AI agents, security is non-negotiable. NVIDIA's launch of NemoClaw, featuring the OpenShell sandbox and enhanced privacy, is a big step forward in making AI safe f

Innovation happens best when everyone has a voice.

Every operator in the oil and gas industry knows the name WellView. As Peloton's well information management system, it is the digital backbone that centralizes data across a well's entire lifecycle—from initial planning through drilling, completions, and eventual abandonment. It's designed to be the single, reliable source of truth for managing the immense complexity, high costs, and significant risks inherent in drilling operations.In essence, systems like WellView are indispensable for:Standardizing data for more reliable decision-making. Preserving critical operational knowledge over decades. Facilitating regulatory reporting and compliance. The Challenge: A Treasure Trove Trapped in FragmentationDespite its critical importance, WellView data often presents a massive challenge for the very engineers who need it most. The information is highly technical, fragmented across complex relational tables, and stored in overwhelming volumes—think drilling logs recorded every foot or every 1

Hey everyone! 👋 I've been diving into the world of CDF data modeling for the past couple of weeks, and I thought I'd share what I've learned so far in a way that's easy to understand. First off, let's talk about the term "Data Modeling." It's everywhere in CDF - in API endpoints, UI, docs - but its meaning can vary depending on where you look. After some digging, I've figured out what it means specifically in CDF. Essentially, it's about organizing, storing, and working with data in a way that's perfect for handling complex industrial scenarios. Think of it as the foundation for unleashing the power of Cognite Data Fusion on your industrial data. So, what exactly makes up a Data Model in CDF? Let's break it down: Space: Think of it like a folder where everything in a Data Model hangs out. Containers, views, instances - they all belong to a Space and have their own unique ID. Containers: These are like the storage units for properties. They live within a space and hold sets of proper

  The countdown is on! Cognite Hub has officially launched the Impact Challenge 2025 -a no-code hackathon inviting all our community members to roll up your sleeves and solve real-world challenges using Cognite Data Fusion. Unlocking Value Through Community InnovationAt its core, this community-driven initiative is about unlocking value - from accelerating CDF adoption to creating user-friendly solutions, breaking down silos, and driving measurable business impact. And it’s all happening without writing a single line of code. Let’s turn ideas into Impact!Expert Support and MentorshipParticipants will be supported by a panel of Cognite experts and community leaders who will mentor and guide top ideas as they evolve. After an initial round of social voting, the top 10 concepts will receive dedicated mentorship to help bring their visions to life.Recognition and RewardsAnd the reward? The best ideas will step into the spotlight at the Impact Conference in Houston, gaining visibility, reco

A common setup that we have at Cognite is having 3 different environments: development, test and production. We have one specific Cognite Data Fusion (CDF) project for each of these environments. This setup allows to develop new features without interfering with production data. Also, it makes the deployment of new features to production much safer, since they are tested before.Sometimes, you still want to have the data you used during your tests, in your production environment. For example, if you extracted some data from sensors and saved them as time series in CDF, you may want to keep this historical data when you move to production. Same goes with files, assets, datasets, functions etc. Another example could be the replication of the data from a full production CDF project, to one of your customer’s project, containing only a subset of the source one.At Cognite, we have a python package (available at https://pypi.org/project/cognite-replicator/) whose purpose is to copy the select

Hi everyone, We appreciate so many of you taking the time to provide us feedback, and due to popular demand, we accelerated the implementation of a new way of seeing preview of data in Search.What you now see in Search, is that we (most places*) have replaced the preview card pop up triggered by hovering with a preview side panel triggered by selecting/clicking on an item. The preview side panel is a compressed version of the details view, and you will be directed to the full page details view by selecting “Open” in the top right. Left: preview card pop up previously triggered on hover. Right: preview side panel triggers on click.*We still use the preview card when viewing Annotations in a File, but are here working on designs for improving the interaction.  Let us know what you think!Best, Sofie Berge, Product Manager  

Search as the default exploration experience in the Industrial tools workspace What you will see when you log in with your credentials to fusion.cognite.com, is that Search is the new default exploration experience. We hope you will take it through some testing, and are looking forward to your feedback!  Best, Sofie Berge, Product Manager

Hey everyone ! Welcome back to our data modeling adventure in CDF! In my first post, I tried to explain my understanding of the core concepts - spaces, containers, views, and the elusive knowledge graph. We learned how data models act as the foundation for unlocking the power of Cognite Data Fusion for your industrial data.This time, let's delve deeper into the world of views and containers - the essential ingredients that bring your data models to life! Beyond the Fundamentals: Unveiling Views and ContainersThink of a data model as a recipe. It doesn't contain the actual ingredients (data) itself, but it tells you exactly what pre-made dishes (views) and fresh ingredients (containers) to use. Views: The Pre-Assembled Data: Imagine views as pre-prepared dishes – Views are essentially pre-defined data selections curated from specific containers. These containers hold the raw data (think sensor readings or equipment properties). A single view, akin to a pre-made sauce, can be referenced
