Webinar Abstract
As the pace of business continues to change and accelerate, traditional IT technology and centralized team structures cannot stay the same. Decision makers across the business need easier access to all relevant data as close to real-time as possible. Yet, as organizations try to serve stakeholder requirements with traditional technologies and practices, they face mounting difficulties. Users are frustrated; TDWI research finds that most spend over 60 percent of their time on data access, loading, and other data preparation, and some spend over 80 percent.
Join this TDWI webinar to learn how organizations can improve data access for emerging citizen data professionals—the growing cadre of data-savvy business users and analysts who want to do more of their own data ingestion, refinement, analytics, and visualization. We will discuss how organizations can free up IT bottlenecks, enable individuals to use self-service technologies to speed data loading, and accelerate data pipeline development so they can focus on using the data to solve business challenges.
Attend to learn:
- How the latest self-service technologies can empower citizen data professionals to get all the data they need faster
- Strategies for overcoming disconnected data silo challenges by using automated technologies to speed centralization in the cloud
- Best practices for collaboration with IT as self-service technology adoption grows
