Melody Chien, Sr Dir Analyst, @Gartner_inc. is now speaking at #GartnerDA about Augmented #DataQuality (DQ). It augments DQ tasks to discover, assess, validate, enrich, or monitor data using AI/ML algorithms. #AI accelerates the execution of DQ tasks, plus enhances results.

At the @Gartner Data & #Analytics Summit 2024, Kai Liu (VP at vendor @Kyligence) is explaining the importance of #PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act), plus how the @Kyligence Zen platform uses AI to enable Intelligent #PDCA.

Robert Thanaraj, @Gartner_inc analyst speaking at #GartnerDA in Orlando, is now discussing the three “Ops” for operational excellence in data and #analytics: #FinOps (monitoring cloud costs), #DataOps (data engineering method), #PlatformOps (managing D&A infrastructure).

The award for best session title at #GartnerDA goes to @Gartner_inc's analyst & VP @ARonthal for his "Money, Love, Power... and Metadata: 4 Things that Matter" for everything, from our personal lives to modern #DataEcosysytems.

Rick Greenwald (@Gartner analyst at #GartnerDA) just said “FinOps tools are maturing beyond observe & report functions to augmented functions (intelligent automation) so they recommend, predict & optimize . This will help you deal with increasing scale & complexity of systems.”

“Data Ecoystems are diving head-long into the Trough of Disillusionment,” said @ARonthal, @Gartner analyst at #GartnerDA Summit. The hype of multi-cloud, fabric-driven, AI-ready, financially unpredictable, data ecosystems is giving way to the challenges of design & optimization.

At #GartnerDA Summit, I'm attending session by @Gartner_inc analyst & VP @ARonthal. Great update on evolution of #DataEcosystems to accommodate #AI, @PlatformOps, vector #DBMSs, #DataFabric, #LLMs, etc.

“We’ve now entered Era of #collectiveintelligence,” said Debra Logan @Gartner analyst in keynote at #GartnerDA. “How we solve problems. How we get things done. Two heads are better than one. It’s now done with biz coordination and collaboration, enabled by data and #analytics.”

I just had breakfast with 1000 Data & Analytics professionals at the #GartnerDA Summit 2024 in Orlando. It's great to be in such great company! Stay tuned, because I'll tweet (um, X?) highlights of the Summit. More on my @LinkedIn account.

Here's another song with music by #DukeEllington and words by Bob Russell. Russell's wicked sense of humor is revealed by the title "Do Nothing Till You Hear From Me (And You Never Will)." bit.ly/RussomDoNothing

Here's a recent performance of mine of the classic #DukeEllington song "Don't Get Around Much Anymore." It originated in 1940 as an instrumental named "Never No Lament." But the title changed in 1942 when Bob Russell wrote its lyrics. bit.ly/RussomDontGetA…

Some people think that a #Blues song has to be sad. However, some songs in blues style are quite happy. Case in point: #DukeEllington's "I'm Just A Lucky So-And-So," with words by Mack David (1945). Here's my performance from February 11, 2024. bit.ly/RussomLuckySoA…

Here's a recent performance of an original song I wrote for #BlackHistory Month, back in 2021. It's a story about #RosaParks, based on one of her speeches. The title of the song sums up her speech: "The Only Tired I Was (Was Tired Of Givin' In)". youtu.be/gzQwtu8vt_Y

I'll be attending the @Gartner_inc Data & Analytics Summit (#GartnerDA) March 10-13, 2024 Orlando. It's the best data & analytics conference of the year, so you should attend, too. If you'll be there and want to meet, DM me via @X or @LinkedIn. Cheers! gartner.com/en/conferences…

In 2023, I completed my conversion to Roman Catholicism. Here's an original song, which I wrote during that period. It seems like the usual love song. But it's actually about God's love of me. Peace! youtube.com/watch?v=5I4Wu3…
