Successful analytics depends on choosing the right approach to storing your enterprise data.
In traditional data warehouses, specific types of data are stored using a predefined database structure. Due to this “schema on write” approach, prior to all data sources being consolidated into one warehouse, there needs to be a significant transformation effort. From there, data lakes emerge!
For all of the buzz surrounding both artificial intelligence and data-driven management, many companies have seen mixed results in their quest to harness the value of enterprise data. To avoid those pitfalls, we mixed best-of-breed and proprietary solutions to develop our enterprise data platform (EDP), focusing much of our attention on a combination of smart changes in technology, culture and process for data lakes.
