Harness a Lake-Centric Modernization Strategy for AI Adoption

Mittwoch, 6 März 2024

For companies looking to adopt AI/ML at enterprise scale, streamlined access to data is critical. And yet, many companies are contending with a tangled web of data silos and technologies, leading to data sprawl, mounting technical debt, and bloated storage costs— all of which hamper innovation. And new advances in AI/ML will only add to the complexity.

To address this problem, the most successful companies are adopting a lake-centric approach. A cloud-based lakehouse pairs the robust data management and processing ability of a data warehouse with the flexibility, scalability, and cost-effectiveness of a data lake, enabling you to accelerate innovation and gain a critical competitive edge.

In this live webinar moderated by veteran technology journalist Kate Russell, GigaOm Analyst Andrew Brust will be joined by Teradata’s Vice President of Technology, Martin Willcox, and David Jerrim, Director of Ecosystem Architecture, to share how to unlock the full power of your data with a lake-centric modernization approach. Tune in to learn how to:

  • Consolidate all your data, compute, and AI/ML technologies into a single cloud environment
  • Manage tech debt and harmonize data across the entire enterprise
  • Maximize workload efficiency
  • Achieve transparent financial governance with trusted AI capabilities
