In today's rapidly evolving digital landscape, many organizations are recognizing the need to migrate to cloud platforms. This is primarily driven by the growing requirement to manage large volumes of diverse data, which are essential for advanced analytics and artificial intelligence (AI). The migration of legacy systems to the cloud is a critical step in this transformation. As these organizations embark on this journey, they confront the challenge of migrating vast and often complex data sets, which calls for a strategic approach to ensure a smooth and effective transition.
A critical piece of this transition involves choosing a modern data platform that aligns with an organization's requirements. The right platform plays a crucial role in handling diverse data formats as well as supporting data governance, security, AI, and application development. Join TDWI’s VP of research, Fern Halper, in a discussion with Snowflake’s director of product management, Josh Klahr, on what to look for in modern data platforms and developing a modern data platform strategy.
Topics include:
- Choosing the right cloud data platform to support the modern data and analytics life cycle
- Migration strategies for legacy systems
- Supporting modern analytics such as geospatial, time series, search optimization, and AI/ML
- Governance considerations for modern data platforms
