Time: 9:00 a.m. PT / 12:00 p.m. ET
As organizations move to leverage data for competitive advantage, the modern data lakehouse is emerging as an important architecture to support diverse data types and analytics workloads, including AI. TDWI research shows that adoption of the data lakehouse is on the rise, driven by the promise of centralizing diverse data in a performant environment that can power advanced analytics. However, the reality is that most organizations remain in a hybrid state, operating across multiple clouds and systems. This complexity makes it more challenging to govern data effectively, enable collaboration, and innovate with analytics and AI.
Join TDWI Research VP, Fern Halper, and Carlos Nai, PMM Lead, Data Lake at Snowflake, as they explore the requirements for a unified data lakehouse that supports evolving analytics needs for lakehouse analytics.
Topics include:
- The move toward the lakehouse
- Common issues with today’s lakehouse implementations
- The value of open lakehouses leveraging Apache Iceberg
- What it really means to enable lakehouse analytics in practice
- How Snowflake addresses the lakehouse
