Data integration and data engineering requirements are often the most challenging and complex aspects of AI/ML projects today. Traditional IT-centric data management approaches focused on lengthy ETL processes, and complex SQL tooling means that it can often be difficult for Data Scientists to find and leverage the correct data quickly and easily. A Data Fabric centric approach leveraging data virtualisation technology offers an alternative path that increases the speed of data provision and can empower more users via a self-service paradigm.
In this session, we will cover the following and how companies like Prologis have accelerated their analytics efforts by 30%, leveraging Denodo and data virtualization.
- How to accelerate data discovery and exploration using Data Catalog
- How to ease the process of connecting and using all data sources via data virtualization
- How to leverage data as a service in your model deployment process
- Discussing why IoT needs artificial intelligence to be truly useful
- What are the key hurdles we need to overcome to bring true AI to the IoT sphere?
- Where do the most significant possibilities exist for IoT and AI to work together to bring about game-changing transformation?
- What possible applications could be created from the merging of AI and the blockchain
