In the world of modern AI, data is more than just a resource – it is the fundamental core that aligns decision-makers, supports processes, and enables innovation. As AI applications become more robust and ubiquitous, the pace of that advancement depends on the evolution of the data infrastructure that supports them.
We’re excited to discuss the data deluge with industry experts George Fraser, CEO of Fivetran; Chet Kapoor, President and CEO of DataStax; and Vanessa Larco, Partner at NEA, live on the SaaS stage at Tech News Disrupt 2024.
The panel will take an in-depth look at the shift from mere data accumulation to meaningful integration, and explore how enterprises build, manage, protect and scale their data infrastructures. They will share insights on what lies ahead in terms of data evolution and the strategies enterprises should employ to stay ahead in a data-driven world.
