WTW Radar integrates with Databricks

WTW has launched a new Radar Connector for Databricks , integrating its insurance analytics and pricing platform directly with Databricks to speed up data access and analysis.

The integration allows Radar users to pull data directly from Databricks as a selected data source and push results back into Databricks in a single step, removing the need for manual data movement. WTW said the connector supports both ad hoc analysis and automated workflows, improving governance while reducing friction across teams.

According to WTW, the connector can cut data update turnaround times to minutes, delivering meaningful efficiency gains for insurers using Radar for pricing and analytics.

“The integration of Radar with Databricks gives a more efficient experience for insurers. Combining this with Radar’s existing capability to deploy Databricks machine learning models means Radar users can benefit from Databricks’ data and AI infrastructure capabilities.” – Chris Halliday, Senior Director in WTW’s Insurance Consulting and Technology practice.

“With Databricks, insurers can unify all their data – structured or unstructured – into a single, governed environment ready for Radar analysis. This integration turns that data into immediate, actionable insights by connecting Radar’s advanced pricing models directly to Databricks Agent Bricks with unified governance powered by Unity Catalog. The result is faster decisions, stronger compliance and the agility to innovate confidently in a highly regulated industry.” – Marcela Granados, Global Head of Insurance, Databricks.
