Organizations are under pressure to transform their data environments to support advanced analytics, deliver trusted insights, and scale effectively. TDWI research indicates that the top priority for modernization is to support AI and other innovations. Yet many organizations are still struggling with hybrid and legacy architectures and unifying disparate systems. As organizations continue to advance their AI and analytics initiatives, many are finding data modernization and governance can no longer be treated as separate efforts.
Modernization involves more than just migrating to the cloud—it’s about automating processes, embedding governance, and ensuring that data is accessible, secure, and high quality to support business goals. Join TDWI’s VP of Research, Fern Halper, Ph.D., along with experts from Databricks and Impetus as they discuss the importance of bringing together modernization and governance in one unified platform.
Topics include:
