What we'll discuss
Mastering the integration of data from over 50 disparate sources is an enduring challenge. Not only data needs to be available for both internal and external users, but regulatory data quality must be achieved as well. In a world bound by legacy on-premises systems and processes, achieving both precision and agility seems like an impossible target. The logical path forward for companies dealing with massive amounts of data is to embark on a journey toward a hybrid Cloud ecosystem.

Join us as our speakers guide you through the journey from on-premises infrastructure to the Cloud and the hurdles they encountered along the way. These obstacles include establishing a universally accepted golden source, dismantling silos, aligning diverse strategies, and much more. Along the way ALD managed to achieve a remarkable reduction in costs, accelerate time-to-market, and create more robust data pipelines to empower data-driven decision-making within the business teams.

During our conference, we will delve into such topics as:
  • The pivotal role of hybrid platforms in data-driven projects
  • Strategies for instilling trust in a universally accepted source of truth
  • The undeniable significance of business relevance as the cornerstone of every data initiative
