Data Strategy Best Practices

Modern-day systems are transforming into complex, open-source, cloud-native services running on various environments and being developed/deployed at lightning speed by distributed teams. When working on these systems, identifying a broken link in the chain can be near impossible. Everything fails at one point or another, whether due to code bugs, infrastructure overload, or changes in end-user behavior or market driven factors or errors in data collection. This has led to the rise of DataOps with a focus on changing the organizational speed and trust in delivering data pipelines and the related artifacts by co-creating “decision quality” data with the consumers. This development has led to the idea of observability that includes monitoring, tracking, and triaging incidents to prevent downtime of the systems and around several factors such as freshness, distribution, volume, schema, lineage.

Register for this on-demand webinar with the co-founder of Alation where we’ll deep dive into the Data Catalog. You’ll learn why a data catalog is essential for data-driven organizations, methods and tools to democratize your data, and how automation is crucial for consistent re-use of data.

In this 30 minute demo, you'll see a demo of how easy it is to connect to Yellowbrick data warehouse from MicroStrategy, query tables with billions of rows from a TPC-DS workload, and see results in milliseconds or seconds.

The Environment Agency uses data models as a key part of their digital journey in reporting scientific results for water quality, fisheries, conservation and ecology, flood management, and more. Join special guest Becky Russell from the Environment Agency along with host Donna Burbank as they discuss how they were able to gain buy-in from various departments across the organization using data models and data standards
