# From Noise to Clarity: Why We Need Visual Standards — An Introduction to IBCS

Session:
Modern organizations are flooded with dashboards, KPIs, and visual reports — yet most of them fail to communicate clearly. Without consistent visual standards, business users face constant confusion: colors mean different things, chart types vary wildly, and information becomes difficult to compare across teams or time periods.

This presentation introduces IBCS, the International Business Communication Standards, a practical framework designed to bring structure, consistency, and clarity to business reporting. Through the SUCCESS model, IBCS defines a visual language that helps organizations reduce cognitive load, improve decision-making, and build scalable reporting practices.

Participants will see real “before and after” examples demonstrating how standardized visuals transform communication.

This session is a clear, practical introduction to why visual standards matter — and how IBCS can change the way we tell stories with data.

Agentic Coding in a Real-Life Data Platform Migration - dataMinds

# Agentic Coding in a Real-Life Data Platform Migration

Session:
Migrating from an on-premises data platform to a modern cloud architecture can quickly become overwhelming. Legacy SQL logic, inconsistent naming, undocumented transformations, and multiple stakeholders make migrations complex and time-consuming.

In this session, we’ll share how we used coding agents to accelerate and structure a full migration from on-prem SQL Server to a cloud-based Fabric platform. By combining structured markdown context files with AI agents, we documented legacy logic, compared old and new SQL transformations, generated dbt tests, and enforced naming and modelling standards across the team.

What began as a lightweight experiment became a practical collaboration layer in the migration — helping us align on logic faster, reduce manual review work, and work in parallel without losing consistency.
