The Modern Data Team for the Modern Data Stack: dbt and the Role of the Analy...Databricks
A traditional data team has roles including data engineer, data scientist, and data analyst. However, many organizations are finding success by integrating a new role – the analytics engineer. The analytics engineer develops a code-based data infrastructure that can serve both analytics and data science teams. He or she develops re-usable data models using the software engineering practices of version control and unit testing, and provides the critical domain expertise that ensures that data products are relevant and insightful. In this talk we’ll talk about the role and skill set of the analytics engineer, and discuss how dbt, an open source programming environment, empowers anyone with a SQL skillset to fulfill this new role on the data team. We’ll demonstrate how to use dbt to build version-controlled data models on top of Delta Lake, test both the code and our assumptions about the underlying data, and orchestrate complete data pipelines on Apache Spark™.
In the beginning was the Word. What is the “Word”? For the purposes of this article, the “word” is Data or Information. It is the basis of all things.
Why do we pay so much attention to things rather than the information about them? “Things” are what we can see. “Information” or “Data” about things is what we know about them. One thing may have different definitions, and its Information / Data may vary. These ideas really belong in a philosophy course. The better definition you have, the better you understand the thing itself.
Data or Information about things is as important as the things themselves. If you have things but you don’t have information about them, you may have to consider that you don’t really have these things.
This presentation is for people who think that Data or Information is an issue for them. For those who think they can own and not understand. This is Data Management for Dummies.
Five Things to Consider About Data Mesh and Data GovernanceDATAVERSITY
Data mesh was among the most discussed and controversial enterprise data management topics of 2021. One of the reasons people struggle with data mesh concepts is we still have a lot of open questions that we are not thinking about:
Are you thinking beyond analytics? Are you thinking about all possible stakeholders? Are you thinking about how to be agile? Are you thinking about standardization and policies? Are you thinking about organizational structures and roles?
Join data.world VP of Product Tim Gasper and Principal Scientist Juan Sequeda for an honest, no-bs discussion about data mesh and its role in data governance.
Modernizing to a Cloud Data ArchitectureDatabricks

Domain Driven Data: Apache Kafka® and the Data Meshconfluent
James Gollan, Confluent, Senior Solutions Engineer
From digital banking to industry 4.0 the nature of business is changing. Increasingly businesses are becoming software. And the lifeblood of software is data. Dealing with data at the enterprise level is tough, and their have been some missteps along the way.
This session will consider the increasingly popular idea of a 'data mesh' - the problems it solves and, perhaps most importantly, how an event streaming platform forms the bedrock of this new paradigm.

Building Event Driven (Micro)services with Apache KafkaGuido Schmutz
What is a Microservices architecture and how does it differ from a Service-Oriented Architecture? Should you use traditional REST APIs to bind services together? Or is it better to use a richer, more loosely-coupled protocol? This talk will start with quick recap of how we created systems over the past 20 years and how different architectures evolved from it. The talk will show how we piece services together in event driven systems, how we use a distributed log (event hub) to create a central, persistent history of events and what benefits we achieve from doing so.
Apache Kafka is a perfect match for building such an asynchronous, loosely-coupled event-driven backbone. Events trigger processing logic, which can be implemented in a more traditional as well as in a stream processing fashion. The talk will show the difference between a request-driven and event-driven communication and show when to use which. It highlights how the modern stream processing systems can be used to hold state both internally as well as in a database and how this state can be used to further increase independence of other services, the primary goal of a Microservices architecture.

Are you getting the most out of your data?SAS Canada
Data is an organizations most valuable asset, but raw data by itself has little value. To drive data’s worth, it must be managed and processed to extract value and information that decision makers can leverage and turn into actionable insights. It is the ways in which a company choses to put that information to use that will determine the true value of its data.
Through business intelligence and business analytic tools, businesses are enabling themselves to make more strategic, accurate decisions, while optimizing business processes. Hear from Info-Tech Research Group and learn what you need to consider when choosing an analytics solution provider. The webinar will highlight Info-Tech Research Group’s recently published vendor landscape for selecting and implementing Business Intelligence and Business Analytics solutions.

Why Cloud? A Total Cost of Ownership Observation of a Pure Cloud SolutionCelonis
Why would you do analytics in the cloud while your ERP still runs on premise? Think about your entire IT landscape--do you use cloud solutions like Salesforce, ServiceNow, Ariba or Workday? And where will you ERP solution be hosted in five years? Cloud is the future-proof deployment model, and vendors offer their software in the cloud for a reason. Next to having near-zero impact on your on-premise infrastructure and being maintenance-free, the Celonis Intelligent Business Cloud (IBC) stores and consolidates data from all your systems without intermediate staging layers. And of course, it scales automatically if your data volume increases. This session will look at the financial side of a full-cloud solution and reveal the total cost of ownership of the IBC compared to on-premise deployment, including hidden costs like maintenance, database licenses and infrastructure.

Going Beyond the Standards - Solutions for Your IndustriesCelonis
Process mining is well established for very standardized processes and ERP systems. However, many customers are unaware of the possibilities for process mining to boost process performance for more specific, business-differentiating processes. In the area of energy or financial services, IT systems and processes are very individual and heterogeneous. For example, there are processes such as meter-to-cash in the energy sector or claimsoft processing in companies with a high investment and asset focus that typically span a diverse set of systems ranging from large ERP to homegrown. So in many companies across all industries today, business transformation programs based on SAP S/4HANA or finance and banking platforms are looking to harmonize processes and data across a global range of businesses and systems. Finally, many organizations are rapidly ramping up automation capabilities using powerful technologies like RPA, but often struggle to find the most valuable opportunities. Find out in this session how process mining can be used to add value to your business in these ways - and take your process optimization beyond the standards.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
