Machine learning (ML) enables organizations to extract more value from their data than ever before. Companies who successfully deploy ML models into production are able to leverage that data value at a faster pace than ever before. But deploying ML models requires a number of key steps, each fraught with challenges.
Most organizations spend at least 37% (sometimes over 50%) more than they need to on their cloud data workloads. A lot of costs are incurred down at the individual job level, and this is usually where there’s the biggest chunk of overspending. Two of the biggest culprits are oversized resources and inefficient code. But for an organization running 10,000s or 100,000s of jobs, finding and fixing bad code or right-sizing resources is shoveling sand against the tide.
IT and data executives find themselves in a quandary about deciding how to wrangle an exponentially increasing volume of data to support their business requirements – without breaking an increasingly finite IT budget. Like an overeager diner at a buffet who’s already loaded their plate with the cheap carbs of potatoes and noodles before they reach the protein-packed entrees, they need to survey all of the data options on the menu before formulating their plans for this trip.
By Jason Bloomberg, President, Intellyx Part 2 of the Demystifying Data Observability Series for Unravel Data In part one of this series, fellow Intellyx analyst Jason English explained the differences between DevOps and DataOps, drilling down into the importance of DataOps observability. The question he left open for this article: how did we get here? How did DevOps evolve to what it is today, and what parallels or differences can we find in the growth of DataOps?
