Since it doesn't move the data to an intermediate staging area or transform it before loading, the extraction process is speedy. You don’t need to pick and choose what data loads into the data lake or wait for it to be processed.

Unleashing Siloed Design Into IPs

Many IP and data management tools provide a project-centric view of the design process, creating what are known as design silos. While this makes some sense, as most designers tend to think of themselves as working on a project at time, and other items within the company are tracked on a project basis (such as cost, resources, and timelines), this approach is not without its drawbacks.
