Name: From PoC to Production: Delivering with Confidence with Databricks
Start: 2025-12-12T12:00:00Z
End: 2025-12-12T13:00:00Z

Many organisations stall at the Proof-of-Concept (PoC) stage, struggling to translate early wins into scalable, business-ready outcomes. This session is designed for **Delivery Managers, Product Owners, and Leaders** who want to move beyond experimentation and deliver lasting value with Databricks.
We’ll explore practical strategies for:

* **Structuring projects** from discovery through production with clear milestones and measurable outcomes.
* **Managing stakeholder expectations** to avoid scope creep and align on success criteria early.
* **Establishing strong delivery governance** to keep projects on track and accountable.
* **Deploying Databricks infrastructure** correctly from the outset — including multi-environment setup (Dev/Test/Prod), Unity Catalog, storage configuration, and CI/CD with Databricks Asset Bundles — to ensure scalable, secure, and reproducible deployments.
* **Avoiding the “never-ending PoC” trap** by creating a clear path to productionisation.

Through **real-world delivery examples**, we’ll show how to combine best practices in project management with modern Databricks capabilities to:

* Accelerate time to value
* De-risk deployments
* Build stakeholder confidence in data & AI programmes
