Some people claim that data is the new oil, but in practice, data is really the new water – without clean and sufficient data, your organization cannot thrive. Clean enterprise data is essential for informed decision-making, improved business processes, and the development and operation of more effective artificial intelligence (AI) solutions.
In this talk, Scott Ambler explores industry statistics on the impact of poor-quality data, the organizational implications of the “data is the new water” metaphor, describes a Disciplined Agile (DA)-based approach to building a continuous enterprise data pipeline, and argues for the need to fix corporate data at the source.
Key learnings:

  • Leadership requires clean, continuous data for data-driven decision-making
  • AI requires clean data for training, and clean continuous data for operation
  • Building and operating a continuous data pipeline requires skill and hard work, there are no easy solutions
  • Data quality issues, data debt, are best addressed at the source
  • This isn’t a project, although it still requires management and governance
