This is a podcast episode you do not want to miss with Stephen Brobst, CTO @ Teradata. We discuss all things Data Warehouses, the shift to the distributed cloud and, key principles to implementing successful DW's.
Top 3 Value Bombs:
- Large organizations are shifting more to a distributed / inter-cloud architecture for many reasons, a couple of reasons are data sovereignty, increasing residency and reducing costs.
- Just because your DW does not support indexing does not mean you do not need them.
- One of the most common reasons DW’s fail is they are led by IT and not the business. The DW should be led directly by the business needs and most important initiatives.
