Every business, whatever size, is a data-business today, further fuelling the need for enabling data-driven insights & decision making at all levels in an organisation.
We’re all in the middle of a huge data explosion creating massive opportunity to harness that data more effectively. Even with recent advances in technology to help manage, shape and exploit data, the separation of the two most prevalent analytics streams: the data warehouse and the data lake still result in complexity and siloes that stifle true agility. Ironic when one of the key benefits of both streams are to bust open siloes!
It’s not just about modern data warehouses and data lakes; analytics expands all kinds of teams, tools and systems. From BI to AI, they all rely on and are anchored in analytics data and it’s hard for all teams to build an analytics solution that can serve all needs to all people.
There has long been the need for an evolution of the approach to data analytics.
I’ve blogged before about witnessing the uptake of cloud analytics solutions that, at their core, rely on Azure SQL Data Warehouse and Azure Data Lake. This core, together with the people, it’s processes and surrounding technology is what Adatis deliver: We design, architect, build, support and evolve Azure cloud-based analytics solutions with the sole purpose of harnessing the opportunity data provides, enabling everyone across your organisation to be data-driven.
So, you can only imagine my excitement by the Ignite announcement that clearly raises the cloud analytics bar further again. Enter Azure Synapse Analytics.
