Ep 59: New Zealand's Crown Research Institute CDAO, Jan Sheppard on Treating Data as a Treasure

Treating data as a treasure is a foundational principle for Jan Sheppard, the Chief Data and Analytics officer at New Zealand’s Crown Research Institute of Environmental Science and Research (ESR.) This agency leads ongoing research in public health, environmental health, and forensics for the country of New Zealand. Like many other CDAOs, her role is relatively new. But the unique values she applies to data can be traced back many hundreds of years to the indigenous Maori people of her country. Through her work, Jan recognizes the profound impact data can have on people and their environments for generations to come.

How to simplify and fast-track your data warehouse migrations using BigQuery Migration Service

Migrating data to the cloud can be a daunting task. Especially moving data from warehouses and legacy environments requires a systematic approach. These migrations usually need manual effort and can be error-prone. They are complex and involve several steps such as planning, system setup, query translation, schema analysis, data movement, validation, and performance optimization.

Scaling Kafka Brokers in Cloudera Data Hub

This blog post will provide guidance to administrators currently using or interested in using Kafka nodes to maintain cluster changes as they scale up or down to balance performance and cloud costs in production deployments. Kafka brokers contained within host groups enable the administrators to more easily add and remove nodes. This creates flexibility to handle real-time data feed volumes as they fluctuate.
