Title: Bridging the gap between Big Data and Big Data Infrastructure
In this talk, we'll cover why it’s important to have an understanding and visibility between the relationship of big data and where it lives. The variety, velocity and volume will have no value unless you can feed the data at the rate you need.

Understanding data lifecycle and how it pertains to improving insights, analytics and outcomes will help us all work better together, across multiple on premises and hyperscaler environments. NetApp brings a unified approach to data management across a hybrid multi cloud from the data centre to cloud to persistent storage in Kubernetes and serverless environments.
