Leverage Your Data Sprawl to Create Trusted, High-Value Insights

Before You Lose Agility and Fall Behind

What happens when companies process vast amounts of data and it becomes harder to keep up with the volume of what they have, who has access to it and why? Enterprises are wide in range with a clutter of information, comprised of countless sources spread across traditional & modern data sets, as well as multiple SaaS applications and cloud environments. Competing on insights requires evolving from Data Driven to Model Driven and ultimately Metadata Driven. Discuss what it takes to be a Metadata Driven organization, preserving your agility and ability to compete in your market.
