Join us for an engaging Meetup presentation, "The Power of Continuous Integration in Data Analysis – a Business Perspective," where we’ll explore how Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) principles can revolutionize the way businesses leverage data.
We’ll start by unpacking the psychology of success, diving into the motivations that drive business expectations, engagement, and ownership in data initiatives. From Agile methodologies to the emerging impact of Data Mesh and Data Vault 2.0, we’ll highlight why CI/CD is a game-changer for modern data management. Next, we’ll discuss the mechanisms that make CI/CD possible, covering Data Vault (DV) standards, best-fit architectures, and the role of Business Vault as a key enabler for continuous deployment.
The core of our session will focus on real-world examples of iterative deployments, demonstrating how organizations successfully implement CI/CD practices in data environments to improve efficiency, reduce risk, and drive innovation. Whether you're a data leader, architect, or business stakeholder, this session will provide valuable insights on how to seamlessly integrate CI/CD into your data strategy for lasting business impact.
