BrandPost: Lay a data pipeline: Exposing the gaps in today’s business intelligence market

The desire to analyze data that will drive insights and competitive differentiation is older than computing itself. Digitization just speeded things up. Richard Miller Devens used the term “business intelligence” as far back as 1865. The LEO computer was calculating optimal inventory deliveries based on shop performance and generating management reports for the Lyons’ tea rooms chain from 1951. And the very first edition of CIO magazine, published in 1987, included an editorial on “an increasing cadre of increasingly demanding customers seeking faster access to information”. Fast-forward to today, and the dreary meme of “data is the new oil” that must be chanted at every tech conference by rule of law. The power of data is better understood than ever, but for many, harnessing data, checking its quality, and applying context to assist decision-making remains challenging. CIOs report fragmentation, slowness and silos, even as digital transformation has been accelerated by the pandemic. But there is cause for optimism, in the form of broad modern data pipelines that drive activity and allow what Qlik calls “Active Intelligence” – the ability to act on reliable data with a rich supporting fabric of context and collaboration to support the right decisions and take informed actions in the right moment. By assembling joined-up processes, companies are following the path from uncovering data to delivering it where it needs to go, governing it through data catalogs, understanding it, augmenting it, and putting it to use via context-sensitive alerts and actions taken in close to real time.

BrandPost: Decision-Making at the Speed of Business Means Better Data Onboarding

The pressing need for real-time data pushed businesses to accelerate and expand their investments in data and data management solutions during 2020. While much of the industry focus is rightfully on new advancements in predictive analytics that are driving business value, it is becoming increasingly clear that architecture and data teams are working equally hard to enable this data with more modern data architecture and new data sets. Recent research from IDC, commissioned by Qlik, revealed that in Q1 2020 alone, 30% of organizations were conducting major architectural changes and 45% were adding new data to their analytics environment, significantly expanding the capabilities in their analytics arsenals. Multiple cloud platforms, on-prem sources and even offline documentation, such as direct mail surveys, are all feeding inputs into the modern data pipeline.

Zero trust is both a journey and an end state

But zero trust is not something you buy, download and install. “Zero trust is really a security philosophy and approach that’s built on a few core principles,” said Jason Garbis, the chief product officer for Appgate.

Top 8 data engineer and data architect certifications

Data analytics is the lifeblood of any successful business. Getting the technology right can be challenging but building the right team with the right skills to undertake data initiatives can be even harder. Successfully deploying big data initiatives requires more than data scientists and data analysts. It requires data architects who design the “blueprint” for your enterprise data management framework, and it requires data engineers who can build that framework and the data pipelines to bring in, process, and create business value out of data.
