What is Data Platforms?

"I am researching big data and hiring resources. I need both SaaS and GTM products. I am trying to understand how to budget for this initiative as well as the competitive landscape. My apps have growing amounts of data. I have to prepare a TCO and determine ROI for this initiative and would love to learn from those who have done it."

"I have a use case. My project has a name, an executive sponsor and a business objective. I’m comparing platforms and honing my strategy. I’d love to understand the pitfalls and challenges others have faced so I can learn from those mistakes as I recommend a plan for my organization."

"I have a big data infrastructure and I am building out teams to support the environment. I am focused on scaling and automation. I have a skills gap and need access to more talent. I need to prioritize use cases and have to keep up with the speed of innovation. I don’t have a budget to expand and need to build a roadmap for future TCO."

"I’ve built a cluster and invested a great deal of money, but I can’t seem to scale and keep up with growth and demands across the organization. I can’t meet the needs of my customers internally and I’m not delivering the results my LOBs need to make decisions quickly. My growth is blocked and costs are not contained."
