Gain Big Picture Insights Across Your Connected Portfolio

Modern businesses increasingly rely upon data analysis to reveal new ways to create competitive advantage, improve operational efficiency, enhance customer engagement, control costs, and develop data monetization strategies.

Yet, several barriers stand in the way of enterprises becoming more data-driven. Data is fragmented and siloed across multiple clouds and on-premises infrastructures, business functions, databases, and applications. Users cannot connect to the data they need when they need it. Fortunately, a new governed cloud approach to self-service data connectivity for the enterprise has emerged.

Get Data-Driven Insights with Direct Data Access
Join Carl Lehmann, 451 Research Senior Analyst, and Vincent Lam, CData VP Marketing & Strategy, to learn the best practices and technologies needed to enable data virtualization for the cloud.

We’ll discuss:

- The barriers to simply and rapidly accessing and using data when needed
- How data virtualization for the cloud provides a modern logical real-time access layer for data.
Attendees will learn how to overcome the barriers to data-driven insights, and how data virtualization can simplify and speed connectivity to data across your organization.

Join us for a special presentation with two leaders in the data ecosystem from Microsoft Power BI and TigerGraph:  

    Geoff Fawcett, Principal Technical Specialist, Business Intelligence, Microsoft 
    Victor Lee, Director of Product Marketing, TigerGraph 

TigerGraph is a leading graph database, using data relationships to unlock value through advanced analytics. Graph data has long been popular for entity resolution, fraud detection, and customer 360, and more recently for training AI models. 

But due to their unique format, graphs aren’t natively compatible with analytics platforms that require SQL standard data. CData and TigerGraph have a solution for this challenge, and we are pleased to demonstrate graph analytics in Microsoft Power BI, a leading data analytics, reporting, and visualization platform.

Digital communication with business partners depends on Electronic Data Interchange (EDI). This well-established technology serves as the common language that you and partners speak together when your business depends on exchanging data with others. 

Leveraging the value of EDI and B2B automation more generally starts with understanding the basics of EDI documents: how they’re built, how they’re read, and how they’re used. 

In this three-part series, B2B integration experts from CData help build your EDI understanding from the ground up: 

1. What EDI documents are and why they are useful (August 24) 
2. Specific EDI document types and their idiosyncrasies (September 7) 
3. How EDI documents are integrated into a larger data context (September 21) 

Technology evangelist Matt Springfield and Solutions Engineer Ankit Singh present their hands-on experience with EDI technology with an emphasis on both the critical details and high-level concepts that benefit technical and non-technical viewers alike.

- What are the hallmarks of modern data integration?
- What trends are spurring enterprises to modernize their data integration capabilities?
- Why should enterprises modernize their data integration platforms, processes, and organizations?
- What core capabilities are essential for deploying a full-featured enterprise data integration stack?
- What emerging data integration best practices are needed to support sophisticated new use cases in artificial intelligence, distributed analytics, and low-latency streaming?
- What new techniques should enterprises consider for reducing the cost and improving the efficiency of their data integration processes?
- How feasible is it for enterprises to entirely automate their data integration processes?
- To what extent can and should self-service tools be used to help business analysts and other nontraditional roles build and deploy sophisticated data integration pipeline logic?
- What the essential first step for enterprises on their journeys to modern data integration?
