Challenges and opportunities around open data-driven innovation in cities are also examined.
The 3 Key Barriers Keeping Companies from Deploying Data Products Dataiku
Getting from raw data to deploying data-driven solutions requires technology, data, and people. All of which exist. So why aren’t we seeing more truly data-driven companies: what's missing and why? During Strata Hadoop World Singapore 2015, Pauline Brown, Director of Marketing at Dataiku, explains how lack of collaboration is what is keeping companies from building and deploying data products effectively. Learn more about Dataiku and Data Science Studio: www.dataiku.com
This document discusses how Amazon Web Services (AWS) can help organizations overcome barriers to data-driven innovation by providing tools and infrastructure for distributed data storage, analysis, and sharing. It describes how AWS services like DynamoDB, EC2, EMR, S3, and GovCloud can help customers securely generate, collect, analyze, and collaborate on data at scale. Examples include genomic analysis and public health monitoring through the CDC's BioSense program.
The Business Benefits of a Data-Driven, Self-Service BI OrganizationLooker
The document discusses the benefits of self-service business intelligence (BI) and data-driven organizations. It notes that self-service BI allows users to access and analyze data with less dependence on IT, which streamlines processes, makes business and IT more productive, opens analytics to more users, and helps organizations become more data-driven. The document also uses Twilio as a case study, explaining that Twilio provides a communications API and has evolved its data use from engineers writing custom queries to using a modeling layer to reuse logic on underlying data.

Data driven innovation for growth and well beinginnovationoecd
1) Data-driven innovation refers to using data and analytics to improve or create new products, processes, organizations and markets. It represents the "new R&D" for 21st century innovation systems across many sectors like health, education and transportation.
2) While data is not a traditional commodity, it functions as a non-rivalrous and general purpose input that is an infrastructure for innovation with increasing returns. Its value depends on access and the ability to extract useful insights.
3) Key challenges include encouraging adoption of data-driven technologies especially among small and medium enterprises, addressing shortages of data specialist skills, and balancing open data and reuse with privacy, security and intellectual property concerns.

BitSquid Tech: Benefits of a data-driven renderertobias_persson
BitSquid Tech is a data-driven game engine developed by BitSquid that aims to provide flexibility and fast iteration. Key aspects include supporting hot-reloading of content, utilizing multi-core processors, and having multiple specialized tools instead of a single large editor. The data-driven renderer uses a JSON configuration file to define the entire rendering pipeline, including resources, layers, and resource generators for post-processing, allowing the pipeline to vary dramatically between projects or hardware while remaining high-level and hot-reloadable. This provides significant benefits for flexibility, experimentation, and scaling to different hardware.

Data analysis is more than just data and charts. It’s about finding and telling a story.
Data-driven storytelling inspires action by connecting logic with emotion. As data volumes grow, and people are overloaded with information, the power of storytelling with data is becoming more important. Effective storytelling can help you understand the significance of your data and make better decisions.

The document discusses the realities of starting a business compared to the myth of entrepreneurship. While over 1 million businesses are started each year, over 90% fail within the first 10 years. The reason for high failure rates is that entrepreneurs often understand the technical aspects of the business but not the business aspects of running a company. It also discusses how to estimate costs, revenues, profits, and determine an appropriate business model for a sustainable business.
The Past, Present and Future of Great IdeasEdward Cotton
The document discusses the past, present, and future of great ideas. It notes that great ideas transform contexts, engage audiences, and come in multiple forms like products, experiences, entertainment, and conversations. The document also suggests that the rules around what constitutes a great idea are changing, with the boundaries between entertainment, utility, and commerce blurring. It advocates for ideas that combine multiple forms like conversations, viral content, campaigns, commerce, utility, and ads into cohesive digital experiences.

Introduction of Cybersecurity with OSS at Code Europe 2024Hiroshi SHIBATA
I develop the Ruby programming language, RubyGems, and Bundler, which are package managers for Ruby. Today, I will introduce how to enhance the security of your application using open-source software (OSS) examples from Ruby and RubyGems.
The first topic is CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures). I have published CVEs many times. But what exactly is a CVE? I'll provide a basic understanding of CVEs and explain how to detect and handle vulnerabilities in OSS.
Next, let's discuss package managers. Package managers play a critical role in the OSS ecosystem. I'll explain how to manage library dependencies in your application.
I'll share insights into how the Ruby and RubyGems core team works to keep our ecosystem safe. By the end of this talk, you'll have a better understanding of how to safeguard your code.

Power Grid Model
The global energy transition is placing new and unprecedented demands on Distribution System Operators (DSOs). Alongside upgrades to grid capacity, processes such as digitization, capacity optimization, and congestion management are becoming vital for delivering reliable services.
Power Grid Model is an open source project from Linux Foundation Energy and provides a calculation engine that is increasingly essential for DSOs. It offers a standards-based foundation enabling real-time power systems analysis, simulations of electrical power grids, and sophisticated what-if analysis. In addition, it enables in-depth studies and analysis of the electrical power grid’s behavior and performance. This comprehensive model incorporates essential factors such as power generation capacity, electrical losses, voltage levels, power flows, and system stability.
Power Grid Model is currently being applied in a wide variety of use cases, including grid planning, expansion, reliability, and congestion studies. It can also help in analyzing the impact of renewable energy integration, assessing the effects of disturbances or faults, and developing strategies for grid control and optimization.
What to expect
For the upcoming meetup we are organizing, we have an exciting lineup of activities planned:
-Insightful presentations covering two practical applications of the Power Grid Model.
-An update on the latest advancements in Power Grid -Model technology during the first and second quarters of 2024.

Webinar: Designing a schema for a Data WarehouseFederico Razzoli
Are you new to data warehouses (DWH)? Do you need to check whether your data warehouse follows the best practices for a good design? In both cases, this webinar is for you.
A data warehouse is a central relational database that contains all measurements about a business or an organisation. This data comes from a variety of heterogeneous data sources, which includes databases of any type that back the applications used by the company, data files exported by some applications, or APIs provided by internal or external services.
But designing a data warehouse correctly is a hard task, which requires gathering information about the business processes that need to be analysed in the first place. These processes must be translated into so-called star schemas, which means, denormalised databases where each table represents a dimension or facts.
We will discuss these topics:
- How to gather information about a business;
- Understanding dictionaries and how to identify business entities;
- Dimensions and facts;
- Setting a table granularity;
- Types of facts;
- Types of dimensions;
- Snowflakes and how to avoid them;
- Expanding existing dimensions and facts.
