CDO Battlescars is a podcast series hosted by Sandeep Uttamchandani, Unravel Data’s CDO. He talks to data leaders across data engineering, analytics, and data science about the challenges they encountered in their journey of transforming raw data into insights. The motivation of this podcast series is to give back to the data community the hard-learned lessons that Sandeep and his peer data leaders have learned over the years.

Throughout 2020, a challenging year for so many in our community, Qlik remained laser-focused on delivering groundbreaking and transformative innovations across our portfolio.

Businesses increasingly gather data to better understand their customers, products, marketing, and more.

When cyberattacks take out business systems, organizations suffer from direct and indirect financial losses. When healthcare systems go down, it’s a matter of life and death.

Infosecurity Magazine reports that healthcare data breaches will increase by 3x in 2021, at a time when so many healthcare providers are burnt out and exhausted from battling the pandemic.

Has your organization considered upgrading from Hortonworks Data Flow (HDF) to Cloudera Flow Management (CFM), but thought the migration process would be too disruptive to your mission critical dataflows? In truth, many NiFi dataflows can be migrated from HDF to CFM quickly and easily with no data loss and without any service interruption. Here we explore three common use cases where a CFM cluster can assume an HDF cluster’s dataflows with minimal to no downtime.
