… evolve the architecture
… create “you build it you run it” teams
… involve business people in the transformation
Maximize Big Data ROI via Best of Breed Patterns and PracticesJeff Bertman
******** Abstract: ********
Not long ago the question was whether your organization had big data. Did you have
the volume, the velocity, the technology. Now those basics are largely given for most of
the people attending this event. The path to success is still fuzzy, however, with so many
technologies to choose from – and so many ways to use them.
This presentation triangulates in a holistic manner on the modern business dilemma:
how can we leverage technology to improve revenue, profit, market share, and numerous
other success criteria. That said, this is not about the analytics or KPIs -- although it is
about measurable improvement. It’s about lining up the right technologies and using them
in effective, proven ways to maximize Return on Investment (ROI). Since the slant here
is holistic, we’ll show how to blend infrastructure, tools, methods, and talent to avoid and
constantly trim technical debt… and to produce success stories that are consistently
repeatable, not a byproduct of individual heroics.

Beyond Predictive Analytics : Deploying apps to production and keep them improving
Some smart companies have been putting predictive application in production for decades. Still, either because of lack of sharing or lack of generality, there is still no single and obvious way to put a predictive application in production today.
As a consequence, for most companies, transitioning analytics from development to production is still “the next frontier”.
Behind the single word "production” lays a great number of questions like: what exactly do you put in production: data, model, code all three ? Who is responsible for maintenance and quality check over time : business, tech or both ? How can I make my predictive app continuously improve and check that it delivers the promised business value over time ? What are the best practice for maintenance and updates by the way ? Will my data scientists keep working after first development or should I lay half of them off ? etc…
Let’s make a small analogy with the development of web sites in the 90’s and early 00’s :
Back then, the winners where not necessarily the web sites with an amazing design, but a winner had clearly made the necessary efforts and had a robust way to put their web site reliabily in production
Today, every web developper can enjoy the confort of Heroku, Amazon, Github, docker, Angular, bootstrap … and so we forget. How much time before we get the same confort for the predictive world ?
Data Virtualization for Data Architects (New Zealand)Denodo
Watch full webinar here: https://bit.ly/3ogCJKC
Success or failure in the digital age will be determined by how effectively organisations manage their data. The speed, diversity and volume of data present today can overwhelm older data architectures, leaving business leaders lacking the insight and operational agility needed to respond to market opportunity or competitive challenges.
With the pace of today’s business, modernisation of a data architecture must be seamless, and ideally, built on existing capabilities. This webinar explores how data virtualization can help provide a seamless evolution to the capabilities of an existing data architecture without business disruption.
You will discover:
How to modernise your data architectures without disturbing the existing analytical workload
- How to extend your data architecture to more quickly exploit existing, and new sources of data
- How to enable your data architecture to present more low latency data
Predictive analytics is touching more and more lives every day. Machine Learning lets you predict and change the future. Do you know that Microsoft products like Xbox and Bing integrate some machine learning capabilities in their workflows? Come to the session and take a look of the new cloud-based machine learning platform called AzureML from a BI architect perspective, without all the data scientist knowledge.

Whats the Use!? (Real Customer Use-Cases)ShapeBlue
A look at a selection of the private cloud use cases Paul has encountered, what they're doing, features they're using and features they'd like to see added or enhanced.
Paul will give examples of private CloudStack deployments highlighting interesting constraints and requirements that they had. Paul will explain how these requirements have been met as well as where they haven't, leading into a look at features on the enterprises' wish list for CloudStack
Even if you have terabytes of business data, it might not be easy to apply AI-based analytics to it. The bottleneck is often Machine Learning (ML) expertise and scalable infrastructure.
We'll first look at how you can access vast amounts of data from the data warehouse directly in a Google Sheet. Then, you'll see how it's possible to train custom ML models with that data, without ever leaving the spreadsheet.

Scaling Ride-Hailing with Machine Learning on MLflowDatabricks
"GOJEK, the Southeast Asian super-app, has seen an explosive growth in both users and data over the past three years. Today the technology startup uses big data powered machine learning to inform decision-making in its ride-hailing, lifestyle, logistics, food delivery, and payment products. From selecting the right driver to dispatch, to dynamically setting prices, to serving food recommendations, to forecasting real-world events. Hundreds of millions of orders per month, across 18 products, are all driven by machine learning.
Building production grade machine learning systems at GOJEK wasn't always easy. Data processing and machine learning pipelines were brittle, long running, and had low reproducibility. Models and experiments were difficult to track, which led to downstream problems in production during serving and model evaluation. In this talk we will cover these and other challenges that we faced while trying to scale end-to-end machine learning systems at GOJEK. We will then introduce MLflow and explore the key features that make it useful as part of an ML platform. Finally, we will show how introducing MLflow into the ML life cycle has helped to solve many of the problems we faced while scaling machine learning at GOJEK.

New Opportunities for Connected Data - Emil Eifrem @ GraphConnect Boston + Ch...Neo4j
Today’s complex data is not only big, but also semi-structured and densely connected. In this session we’ll look at how size, structure and connectedness have converged to transform the data landscape. We’ll then go on to look at some of the new opportunities for creating end-user value that have emerged in a world of connected data, illustrated with practical examples drawn from the telecommunications, social media and logistics sectors.
Supercharge your data analytics with BigQueryMárton Kodok
Powering interactive data analysis require massive architecture, and Know-How to build a fast real-time computing system. BigQuery solves this problem by enabling super-fast, SQL-like queries against petabytes of data using the processing power of Google’s infrastructure. We will cover its core features, creating tables, columns, views, working with partitions, clustering for cost optimizations, streaming inserts, User Defined Functions, and several use cases for everydaay developer: funnel analytics, behavioral analytics, exploring unstructured data.
The other part will be about BigQuery ML, which enables users to create and execute machine learning models in BigQuery using standard SQL queries. BigQuery ML democratizes machine learning by enabling SQL practitioners to build models using existing SQL tools and skills. BigQuery ML increases development speed by eliminating the need to move data.
Arthur C. Nielsen, the founder of ACNielsen said, “The price of light is less than the cost of darkness.” This is becoming even more important in the day and age of IoT devices and ubiquitous internet connectivity. The amount of data that is at the fingertips of our companies’ decision makers is colossal. Yet very few business leaders and their direct teams can analyze their data by themselves to uncover insights that will improve our products and services to delight their customers and grow their business.
With the rise of low-code/no-code tools, cloud infrastructure, and the convergence of AI and BI, the democratization of analytics can accelerate the time to answer a question while improving its relevancy.
In this presentation, we will cover the 12 critical capabilities to succeed in enabling self-service analytics and augmenting data literacy across the enterprise.

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.
