Why You Need Universal Connectivity for Cloud Data Platforms
Webinar Speaker: Fern Halper, TDWI VP Research, Senior Research Director for Advanced Analytics
Date: Thursday, February 24, 2022
Time: 9:00 a.m. PT, 12:00 p.m. ET
Organizations are dealing with increasing numbers of data sources. TDWI routinely sees organizations managing hundreds of data sources, and with SaaS applications, some are even dealing with more. These organizations are often storing this data on cloud data platforms (CDPs) such as cloud data warehouses and data lakes.
These data sources are critical for use cases such as analytics, where organizations want to be able to analyze data from multiple sources to gain better insights. Yet TDWI research indicates that companies have difficulty accessing various data sources. Users can wait weeks or even months to get access to a new data source. Once they get access to the data, it is often difficult to get fresh data.
Join representatives from TDWI and Matillion as they address why universal connectivity is needed and how easy-to-use tools can help users build their own custom connectors.
You will learn about:
- The growing number of data sources and why organizations need access to them
- Challenges with data connectivity on CDPs
- The importance of fresh data and change data capture (CDC)
- Matillion’s universal connectivity for CDPs
