Are you storing your data in BigQuery and interested in using that data to train and deploy models? Or maybe you’re already building ML workflows in Vertex AI, but looking to do more complex analysis of your model’s predictions? In this post, we’ll show you five integrations between Vertex AI and BigQuery, so you can store and ingest your data; build, train and deploy your ML models; and manage models at scale with built-in MLOps, all within one platform. Let’s get started!

At Wayfair, we have several unique challenges relating to the scale of our product catalog, our global delivery network, and our position in a multi-sided marketplace that supports both our customers and suppliers. To give you a sense of our scale we have a team of more than 3,000 engineers with tens of millions of customers. We supply more than 20 Million items using more than 16,000 supplier partners.

Heading into a new year filled with myriad crosscurrents, this much is certain: more organizations will find smarter ways to use data as they realize the benefits of digitally transforming their operations. We’re seeing this trend toward data-driven decision making already play out in different industries around the world as companies modernize their infrastructures.

Cloudera has been recognized as a Visionary in 2021 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Cloud Database Management Systems (DBMS) and for the first time, evaluated CDP Operational Database (COD) against the 12 critical capabilities for Operational Databases.

2021 demonstrated the precariousness of our global supply chains and the potential cost to business. The Suez Canal blockage held up around $9.6bn of trade each day, while the true impact of the pandemic won’t be known for years. Many of us have also felt it during our weekly shopping and the disappointment when one of our favorite items is replaced by cardboard cutouts instead of the foodstuff themselves.

Here’s a scenario that might feel painfully familiar. Your marketing department captures customer leads, and passes them to the sales department. Marketing’s success is measured in part on the number and size of deals that result. But a squabble breaks out over how the sales department handles, nurtures, and attributes those conversions. Result: Neither department really wants to share their data.
