イベント内容

The holy-grail for analysts is to maximise the amount of time spent doing analysis; the activities that directly yield insight as distinct from time-consuming data preparation or waiting for data to be processed by ETL (Extract Transform Load). Data preparation involves secondary supporting activities that are necessary but can delay time to insight i.e. cleaning, appending, transforming or any other form of pre-processing to get data ready for analysis.

In this session we survey the available options for analysts working with big data sets and the technologies that support direct analysis with minimal processing time or manual data preparation. This includes automation of data preparation, minimization or elimination of ETL and anything else which can streamline the activities of an analyst.
