It is a fascinating, explosive time for enterprise analytics. It is from the position of analytics leadership that the mission will be executed and company leadership will emerge. The data professional is absolutely sitting on the performance of the company in this information economy and has an obligation to demonstrate the possibilities and originate the architecture, data, and projects that will deliver analytics. After all, no matter what business you’re in, you’re in the business of analytics. The coming years will be full of big changes in enterprise analytics and Data Architecture. William will kick off the fourth year of the Advanced Analytics series with a discussion of the trends winning organizations should build into their plans, expectations, vision, and awareness now.

Our SRE teams used to struggle with managing
the vast amount of logs it takes to support
millions of users in real time in a consistent
manner across all our product lines. With
ChaosSearch, we are able to use a singular
solution for our various logs without the hassle
of managing the logging tools as well.”

Log Analytics at Scale
10
Optimizing cloud services and applications and mitigating persistent threats relies on complete log coverage
IT & Cloud Ops
Optimization
DevOps
Efficiency
• Efficiently capture all logs
across distributed
architecture, microservices,
containers, etc. to prevent
incidents and improve
troubleshooting
• Eliminate pipelines and
process and join multiple
logs virtually for in-depth
analysis in minutes instead
of days/weeks
• Faster root cause analysis
and troubleshooting
• Instant feedback into CI/CD
pipeline to identify potential
issues prior to production
• Minimize data filtering and
prep – capture all log data
efficiently and join multiple
sources
SecOps & Threat
Hunting
• Unlimited data retention -
Keep logs indefinitely to
thwart persistent threats and
meet compliance mandates
• Centralize all logs for greater
visibility, hunting, and threat
mitigation
• Built-in alerts to tag and
automate response to
threats in near real time.

14. Why Are Trends Important?
• It is imperative to see trends that affect your
business to know how to respond
• Plan for and deal with change
• Better to be at the beginning of the trend
rather than the end
• Wants, needs, and tastes of your customer
changes
• Make you a leader, not a follower
• Grow your business ideas
• Give you ideas what to improve in your
business

15. Information Management Leaders
• Information Management leaders of
tomorrow can advance maturity while also
solving business issues
– There’s no budget for “staying on trends”
• Information Management leaders must pick
their winning (i.e., multi-year sustainable)
approaches and get on board

16. Last Year’s Trends
• Remote Work Continues
• Led by Cloud Capabilities, Strong Tech Spending Rebound in 2021
• Leading Organizations are increasing a focus on AI/ML
• Model Deployment Takes Center Stage
• More Edge AI
• Explainable AI
• Strong Data Lake Adoption
• New Technology Stacks: Shift from only data warehouses, lakes, and
ETL to data fabrics, AI, and pipelines
• Strong DEVOps Adoption
• Strong MLOps Adoption

maturity in moving
imperfectly than in
merely perfectly
defining the
shortcomings
§ Build credibility

§No plateaus are
comfortable for long
§That resistance is not
about making
progress, it’s the
journey
