In this webinar, we will hear from leading independent business intelligence analyst, Rick van der Lans, the benefits of creating a logical data fabric and why data fabrics, in general, are the only successful modern architecture for data integration and data management projects. We will learn from Rick how a logical data fabric smooths away the challenges of all of the competing data architectures business users, data scientists, and other data consumers come across when interfacing with disparate data sources in data lakes, data hubs, data warehouses, and other data silos.
Rick will discuss how a logical data fabric, a popular new architectural approach, virtually integrates existing transactional data and data delivery systems to make all the individual components look as one. In particular, Rick will discuss the benefits of decoupling the consumption layer from the data sources and why this has many business benefits.
Finally and most importantly, Rick will look at the key attributes of a logical data fabric including centralized data security, embedded metadata support, built-in support for record-oriented and set-oriented data access, and AI/ML support.
