MUNICH and NEW YORK, May 11, 2026 - Celonis, a global leader in Process Intelligence, today announced an expanded collaboration with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to enable businesses to ground their AI solutions in the deep operational context necessary to achieve real business value. A new zero-copy connection to AWS services enables customers to combine the world-class cloud storage and data governanceprovided by Amazon S3 and AWS Glue with the powerful Celonis Platform.
Connecting Celonis with AWS enables:
* Agents that deliver ROI: Feed real-time operational context into Amazon Bedrock on AWS to build AI agents that understand operations, automate complex tasks, and drive measurable value.
* High-performance data access: Direct querying of data in Amazon S3 delivers up to 5-10x faster end-to-end data pipeline performance compared to traditional, extraction-based methods.
* Reduced data duplication: Zero-copy architecture maintains a single source of truth, reducing storage costs and synchronization errors.
* Enhanced data security and governance: Preserves existing security and governance frameworks by supporting connections through AWS Glue, Amazon S3 Tables, and other catalog services that use the Apache Iceberg REST Catalog specification.
The integration uses the Iceberg REST Catalog to allow the Celonis Process Intelligence Graph to read live data stored in Amazon S3 on AWS. By enriching this raw data with deep operational context, companies create a living digital twin of their business operations. This process-centric foundation can then be fed into Amazon Bedrock to build and deploy production-ready AI agents that understand how the business actually flows.
"It's time to move past the era of AI science projects to Enterprise AI that delivers meaningful business outcomes," said Dan Brown, Chief Product Officer at Celonis. "By integrating with Amazon S3, we are drastically accelerating the time to value for our customers. We're giving agents built with Amazon Bedrock the immediate, real-time operational context they need to make the right decisions, take the right actions, and drive real value fast."
"Customers don't want to spend months migrating data before they can see value from AI-they want to put their data to work where it already lives," said Carol Potts, General. Manager, US ISV Sales, AWS. "This collaboration with Celonis makes that possible, bringing deep process intelligence directly to Amazon S3 and simplifying the stack so teams can focus on building smarter AI agents in Amazon Bedrock rather than managing complex pipelines. Together, we're helping customers move faster from AI experimentation to real operational impact."
"At BMW Group, turning massive volumes of process data into tangible operational impact is essential to continuously improving our manufacturing and enterprise processes," said Marco Gorgmaier, Vice President Data, Artificial Intelligence & Enterprise Platform. "The zero-copy connection between Celonis and AWS helps us to significantly reduce unnecessary data movement while maintaining control over our process data. It provides the process context needed for analytics, AI agents and automated workflows to identify improvement potential faster and support more efficient operations across the enterprise."
The Celonis and AWS integration is made possible via Iceberg REST Catalog and the Celonis Data Core -Celonis' high-performance data infrastructure.
Learn more about the Celonis Context Model and Decision Intelligence at Celonis:Next on May 19 or at an upcoming Process Intelligence Day.

ATTAPULGUS, GA, May 18, 2026 - BASF has opened a new, state-of-the-art research and development center for advancements in refinery catalysts. The facility is strategically co-located at BASF's largest refinery catalyst production site globally, in Attapulgus, Georgia.
The proximity willallow for greater collaboration between R&D, process engineering, and operations teams ensuring that the innovations developed are not only performing in the lab but can be scaled up quickly. With faster innovation cycles and robust production testing, the refinery catalysts team will be able to bring advanced catalyst solutions to market more efficiently. The R&D center also serves as a central hub for operational and analytical excellence, anchored by modern quality assurance and quality control labs.
Product development and advanced Fluid Catalytic Cracking (FCC) testing are at the core of the laboratory's work and position BASF technologies as a critical enabler of refinery performance, improving process efficiency, product yields, and overall profitability. By locating R&D at a production site, BASF is closer to real-world manufacturing operations conditions and end-use requirements, allowing for greater customization of solutions in close collaboration with customers.
"We are grateful for the dedication and expertise of our refinery catalyst team, and our broader engineering and R&D community, whose relentless commitment to best-in-class innovation has made this new R&D center a reality," said Marius Vaarkamp, Global R&D Directory Refinery Catalysts at BASF. "As an extension of BASF's R&D Verbund, Attapulgus will harness world-class knowledge and capabilities, paired with advanced digital tools, to address the needs of the global customer base of BASF's refinery catalysts business. The proximity of the R&D center to our operational teams will ensure that we continue to deliver solutions that drive refinery performance and create lasting value for our partners globally."
FCC is a core refinery process that uses a catalyst and heat to convert heavy oil and alternative feedstocks into lighter, high-value products such as gasoline, LPG and olefins. The technology efficiently uses existing refinery assets while enabling lower-carbon, circular feedstocks and improved energy efficiency.

*
Helicopter-based project cleared limbs near 46 miles of power lines in less than a month
Entergy Mississippi recently used an aerial saw towed by a helicopter to trim trees and help improve reliability along 46 miles of distribution power lines in rural Hinds County.
The project focused on removing tree limbs that pose a danger of falling onto power lines during storms. Curtis Robertson, operations coordinator forEntergy Mississippi's vegetation support team, said the aerial saw project helps improve reliability and reduces the exposure of employees to hazardous work in remote areas.
"The most important things we consider are the safety of our crew members, using this tool to keep the power on for our customers and managing costs of our work to help keep rates low for customers," Robertson said.
The company communicated in advance with customers along the route about planned, temporary power outages on weekdays during the project's duration to allow the work to be performed safely and on time.
"One of the best ways to reduce interruption to electric service is by maintaining adequate clearance between power lines and trees," said Kamisha Quates, vice president, reliability, Entergy Mississippi. "This project helps us make a positive difference over many miles where our customers live."
The aerial saw is one of several advanced technologies Entergy is using to improve reliability and resilience in our system. Where appropriate, we're using drone aircraft to identify damage and speed restoration after storms. We're also exploring ways to use artificial intelligence to predict and address transformer equipment failures before they interrupt power.
Mississippi Public Service Commissioner De'Keither Stamps, who represents the Central District, visited the project site and observed safety briefings and portions of the aerial tree-trimming work.
Stamps was impressed by the coordination among Entergy crews and the contract helicopter crew to "do something that's never been done before on a distribution line in Mississippi." He said he was glad that customers in Hinds County won't have to worry as much about outages "every time a storm comes."
The helicopter-based aerial saw completed in about a month tree trimming that could have taken much longer to complete with ground-based equipment. It also reduced the exposure of ground-based crews to safety hazards often present in remote rural areas. Entergy uses same technique to protect miles of high-voltage transmission lines.
The Arbor Day Foundation has repeatedly named Entergy a Tree Line USA utility, recognizing our commitment to proper tree pruning, planting and care in our service area.
