The Third Way of Analytics – where Looker meets agents and semantic layers
Michael Forsberg, CTO Forefront Google Innovation, Forefront
How can data be transformed from numbers in dashboards into autonomous decisions that drive business forward? In this seminar we will showcase how Looker is much more than just a visualization platform. By combining semantic layers with intelligent agents, Looker becomes a hub that not only consumes and presents data – but also acts on it.
We will demonstrate how agents can make autonomous decisions, for example when it’s time to replenish inventory, and how this opens up new opportunities across dashboards, APIs, and the entire machinery behind a modern data platform.
Welcome!
