Why Accelerating Data Engineering Across Public Clouds and Private Data Centers is a Game Changer

In this contributed article, Rob Gibbon, Product Manager at Canonical, suggests that data engineers typically know what they need to get done. The problem is that their environment doesn’t always make it easy. If you’re working on premise, it can be hard to get data-intensive solutions off the ground quickly. However, cloud solutions come with lock-in and unpredictable pricing. The game-changer in this scenario is a hybrid solution that will allow you to accelerate data engineering.

Data Observability, Essential for your Modern Data Stack

In this contributed article, Mayank Mehra, head of product management at Modak, shares the importance of incorporating effective data observability practices to equip data and analytics leaders with essential insights into the health of their data stacks. Mayank also explains why this is becoming increasingly paramount, given the current trend towards modern, complex, and distributed data infrastructures.

Largest Data Engineering Survey Reports on Adoption of Modern Data Stack Tools

Airbyte, creators of a fast-growing open-source data integration platform, made available results of the biggest data engineering survey in the market which provides insights into the latest trends, tools, and practices in data engineering – especially adoption of tools in the modern data stack. Its first worldwide State of Data survey displays results in an interactive format so that anyone can drill further into the information using filters to see, for example, adoption patterns by organization size.

How to Optimize the Modern Data Stack with Enterprise Data Observability

In this sponsored post, our friends over at Acceldata examine how in their attempt to overcome various challenges and optimize for data success, organizations across all stages of the data journey are turning to data observability where they can get a continuous, comprehensive, and multidimensional view into all enterprise data activity. It’s a critical aspect of optimizing the modern data stack, as we’ll see. 

What Is Data Reliability Engineering?

In this contributed article, Kyle Kirwan, CEO and co-founder of Bigeye, discusses Data Reliability Engineering (DRE), the work done to keep data pipelines delivering fresh and high-quality input data to the users and applications that depend on them. The goal of DRE is to allow for iteration on data infrastructure, the logical data model, etc. as quickly as possible, while—and this is the key part! —still guaranteeing that the data is usable for the applications that depend on it.

The Powerful Combination of Cloud Data Engineering and Analytics Automation

In this sponsored post, our friends over at Trifacta discuss how unlocking the value from data – whether it is in the cloud or on premises – remains out of reach to many. According to an Alteryx-commissioned survey by YouGov, only 12% of workers reported having the benefit of driving business-changing outcomes through self-service analytics.
