Post of materials from my TDWI Presentation. Abstract: Does your approach to utilizing data and analytics often feel like a game of Chutes and Ladders? If so, you’re not alone. It seems like every day we read about an amazing company solving the most complex of problems through advanced algorithms. Yet, many of us operate in an environment where our data is in 1000’s of spreadsheets and our data science team is constantly telling you that they don’t have enough clean data to function. We’ll talk about ways to create a strategy and roadmap that will put you on a path towards being one of those amazing data stories.
Will your agile practices be the death of architecture?Jennifer Lim
The document discusses how architecture and agile practices can co-exist. It begins by defining agile and architecture separately, noting their seemingly opposing philosophies. However, it argues that architecture's goals of conceptualization and planning are still valid. It then outlines five changes an organization like Cerner found necessary to successfully integrate architecture and agile: acknowledging different project scales, shifting from designated architects to a community role, allowing flexibility in documentation, embracing multiple diagram types, and practicing agile architecture with iterative learning. The document advocates balancing discovery and delivery to harmonize the practices.
Businesses are challenged by complex analytics that can generate confusion instead of insights. Companies should simplify their analytics strategy by focusing on the most important data first to uncover real business opportunities and achieve desired outcomes. They can do this by creating a hybrid data environment that enables fast data delivery and real-time analytics, speeding up decision making. Delegating analytics work to technologies like next-gen business intelligence and data visualization can help turn data into useful insights without needing to analyze everything possible.
Simplify Your Analytics Strategy" by Narendra MulaniMohitGupta714
This document discusses simplifying analytics strategies. It recommends that companies focus on important analytics that benefit customers, stakeholders, and employees rather than trying to analyze all possible data. It suggests accelerating data by creating a hybrid data environment for faster movement and consumption of increasing data. Analytical technologies like next-gen business intelligence, data discovery, machine learning, and analytics applications can help delegate work and simplify advanced analytics for business users. Companies can take known problem/known solution or known problem/unknown solution approaches depending on the business problem.
While the interests in analytics and resulting benefits are increasing by the day, some businesses are challenged by the complexity and confusion that analytics can generate.
Companies can get stuck trying to analyze all that’s possible and all that they could do through analytics, when they should be taking that next step of recognizing what’s important and what they should be doing — for their customers, stakeholders, and employees.
Discovering real business opportunities and achieving desired outcomes can be elusive.
Fast data enables fast insights and fast outcomes. To accelerate data, companies need to liberate and accelerate it by creating a data supply chain built on a hybrid environment of a data service platform and emerging big data technologies. This allows business intelligence to bring data and analytics to life to help companies improve decision-making and performance. Additionally, data discovery can occur alongside specific projects, allowing companies to discover new patterns in their data through testing and exploration to further optimize outcomes.
The document outlines five questions to consider when analyzing data from courses: 1) What does the data tell you? 2) What does the data not tell you? 3) What are the celebrations about the data? 4) What opportunities for improvement does the data allow? 5) Based on your analysis, what are the next steps and timeline? It provides guidance on focusing the analysis to find both positive and negative trends, missing information, areas for celebration or improvement, and developing an action plan.
The presentation is a introduction to Big Data and analytics, how to go about enabling big data and analytics in our company, what are the main differences between big data analytics vs. traditional analytics and how to get started.
This material was used at the SAS Big Data Analytics event held in Helsinki on 19th of April 2011.

DI&A Slides: Descriptive, Prescriptive, and Predictive AnalyticsDATAVERSITY
Data analysis can be divided into descriptive, prescriptive and predictive analytics. Descriptive analytics aims to help uncover valuable insight from the data being analyzed. Prescriptive analytics suggests conclusions or actions that may be taken based on the analysis. Predictive analytics focuses on the application of statistical models to help forecast the behavior of people and markets.
This webinar will compare and contrast these different data analysis activities and cover:
- Statistical Analysis – forming a hypothesis, identifying appropriate sources and proving / disproving the hypothesis
- Descriptive Data Analytics – finding patterns
- Predictive Analytics – creating models of behavior
- Prescriptive Analytics – acting on insight
- How the analytic environment differs for each
Using Data Strategy Design to Build Data-Driven ProductsDatentreiber
Everyone is talking about Big Data, Deep Learning and Artificial Intelligence. But the reality in some companies looks different, especially when developing new products: (the relevant) data is missing. Without predictive models and recommendation systems cannot be trained and the value is consequently low. This so called cold-start problem is especially concerning startups, since without own data treasure the companies are missing a defendable unique value proposition. Successful startups solve this problem with the help of „Data Traps“ and develop products with „Data Network Effects“. What exactly stands behind these terms and how companies design their own successful and data-driven products, will be demonstrated by Martin Szugat based on samples from his occupation as Data Strategy Consultant.
The document discusses strategies for developing a big data strategy. It outlines four key elements: business impact, data integration, analytic models, and decision tools. It provides examples of how companies like Nike, GE, Google, Caesars Casinos, and Bank of America have implemented these elements. Developing a big data strategy is a process that evolves over time, starting with either business impact or data integration and building on those areas. It also discusses the importance of people, organizational structure, and culture for implementing a big data strategy.
This document discusses the opportunities and challenges of big data. It defines big data as huge volumes of structured and unstructured data from various sources that require new tools to analyze and extract business insights. Big data provides both statistical and predictive views to help businesses make smarter decisions. While big data allows companies to integrate diverse data sources and gain real-time insights, challenges include processing large and complex data volumes and ensuring data quality, privacy and management. The document outlines the big data lifecycle and how analytics can be used descriptively, predictively and prescriptively.
Data analytics is used to make better business decisions by combining data and insights. There are four aspects to an effective data analytics framework: discovery, insights, actions, and outcomes. Discovery involves defining problems, developing hypotheses, and collecting relevant data. Insights are generated by exploring and analyzing the data. Actions link the insights to recommendations and plans. The desired outcomes are improved decisions and performance. Different types of analytics include descriptive (what happened), diagnostic (why), predictive (what could happen), and prescriptive (what should be done). Tools used include SQL, Hadoop, machine learning libraries, and optimization or simulation software.
The document outlines five rules for transforming big data into decisions: 1) Start with the question, not the data, 2) Write down your fitness function, 3) Experiment by launching and learning, 4) Respect and empower your customers, and 5) Embrace transparency. It also suggests collaborating with people and machines as a bonus rule. The document proposes a thought experiment about what could be done with all of Google's data and concludes by emphasizing making the implicit explicit.

3. Two approaches are outlined: using existing solutions for known problems like customer segmentation; and discovery-based approaches to find predictive patterns for unknown problems. The goal is to uncover insights and then make data-driven decisions.
Business intelligence (BI) refers to capabilities that enable organizations to make better decisions by collecting, presenting, and delivering data in easy-to-understand formats. BI solutions allow companies to answer questions about their products, competitors, customers, markets, and trends. An effective BI solution should be easy for all levels of employees to access, integrate data from various sources, provide data visualization and self-service analytics capabilities, and employ machine learning for automated and augmented analysis.
The document discusses simplifying analytics by focusing on important data and how to use it to improve business outcomes, rather than complex analytics. It recommends building an environment to accelerate data processing for faster insights and decisions. Companies should leverage business intelligence, data visualization, and data discovery tools, as well as machine learning models, to automate analysis and gain insights from large data sets. Different problems may require hypothesis-based or discovery-based approaches. The key is to identify important data, delegate analysis to tools when possible, visualize data for better understanding, uncover hidden patterns, and customize the approach to the specific problem and data.

End-to-end pipeline agility - Berlin Buzzwords 2024Lars Albertsson
We describe how we achieve high change agility in data engineering by eliminating the fear of breaking downstream data pipelines through end-to-end pipeline testing, and by using schema metaprogramming to safely eliminate boilerplate involved in changes that affect whole pipelines.
A quick poll on agility in changing pipelines from end to end indicated a huge span in capabilities. For the question "How long time does it take for all downstream pipelines to be adapted to an upstream change," the median response was 6 months, but some respondents could do it in less than a day. When quantitative data engineering differences between the best and worst are measured, the span is often 100x-1000x, sometimes even more.
A long time ago, we suffered at Spotify from fear of changing pipelines due to not knowing what the impact might be downstream. We made plans for a technical solution to test pipelines end-to-end to mitigate that fear, but the effort failed for cultural reasons. We eventually solved this challenge, but in a different context. In this presentation we will describe how we test full pipelines effectively by manipulating workflow orchestration, which enables us to make changes in pipelines without fear of breaking downstream.
Making schema changes that affect many jobs also involves a lot of toil and boilerplate. Using schema-on-read mitigates some of it, but has drawbacks since it makes it more difficult to detect errors early. We will describe how we have rejected this tradeoff by applying schema metaprogramming, eliminating boilerplate but keeping the protection of static typing, thereby further improving agility to quickly modify data pipelines without fear.
Enhanced Enterprise Intelligence with your personal AI Data Copilot.pdfGetInData
Recently we have observed the rise of open-source Large Language Models (LLMs) that are community-driven or developed by the AI market leaders, such as Meta (Llama3), Databricks (DBRX) and Snowflake (Arctic). On the other hand, there is a growth in interest in specialized, carefully fine-tuned yet relatively small models that can efficiently assist programmers in day-to-day tasks. Finally, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) architectures have gained a lot of traction as the preferred approach for LLMs context and prompt augmentation for building conversational SQL data copilots, code copilots and chatbots.
In this presentation, we will show how we built upon these three concepts a robust Data Copilot that can help to democratize access to company data assets and boost performance of everyone working with data platforms.
Why do we need yet another (open-source ) Copilot?
How can we build one?

ViewShift: Hassle-free Dynamic Policy Enforcement for Every Data LakeWalaa Eldin Moustafa
Dynamic policy enforcement is becoming an increasingly important topic in today’s world where data privacy and compliance is a top priority for companies, individuals, and regulators alike. In these slides, we discuss how LinkedIn implements a powerful dynamic policy enforcement engine, called ViewShift, and integrates it within its data lake. We show the query engine architecture and how catalog implementations can automatically route table resolutions to compliance-enforcing SQL views. Such views have a set of very interesting properties: (1) They are auto-generated from declarative data annotations. (2) They respect user-level consent and preferences (3) They are context-aware, encoding a different set of transformations for different use cases (4) They are portable; while the SQL logic is only implemented in one SQL dialect, it is accessible in all engines.

3. Companies can get stuck
trying to analyze all that’s
possible and all that they
could do through
analytics, when they
should be taking that next
step of recognizing what’s
important and what they
should be doing — for
their customers,
stakeholders, and
employees.
9. At its core, next-
gen business
intelligence is
bringing data and
analytics to life to
help companies
improve and
optimize their
decision-making
and organizational
performance.
10. BI does this by turning
an organization’s data
into an asset by having
the right data, at the right
time and place (mobile,
laptop, etc), and
displayed in the right
visual form (heat map,
charts, etc) for each
individual decision-
maker, so they can use it
to reach their desired
outcome..
11.
12. 3.Analytics Applications
Applications can simplify advanced analytics
as they put the power of analytics easily and
elegantly into the hands of the business user
to make data-driven business decisions.
13.
14. Machine learning is an evolution
of analytics that removes much of
the human element from the data
modeling process to
produce predictions of customer
behavior and enterprise
performance.
With an influx of big data, and
advances in processing power,
data science and cognitive
technology, software intelligence
is helping machines make even
better-informed decisions.
15. 5.Recognize that each path
to data insight is unique
The path to insight doesn’t come in one single form.
There are many different elements in play, and they
are always changing — business goals, technologies,
data types, data sources, and then some are in a state
of flux.
No matter what combination of culture and
technology exists for a business, each path to analytics
insight should be individually paved with an outcome-
driven mindset.
16. Once insights are uncovered, the next step
is for the business, of course, to make the
data-driven decisions that place action
behind the data. It is possible to uncover the
business opportunities in your data and
increase data equity, simply.
18. A Manager should employ steps
discussed in ii insight in his/ her
organisation to make the analysis
simpler: A proper supply chain should be
built to accelerate the data.
Also a manager should try to have
advanced technology for the organization
because n organization equipped with
advanced technology have an ease with
analytics.
19. For a known
problem area but
with an unknown
solution, the
company could
take a discovery-
based approach
to look for
patterns in the
data to find
interesting
correlations that
may be predictive
For a known
problem with a
known solution
the company
could take a
hypothesis-
based
approach by
starting with
the outcome .
