Many enterprises are investing in a next-generation data lake, hoping to democratize data at scale to provide business insights and ultimately make automated intelligent decisions. In this practical book, author Zhamak Dehghani reveals that, despite the time, money, and effort poured into them, data warehouses and data lakes fail when applied at the scale and speed of today's organizations. A distributed data mesh is a better choice. Dehghani guides architects, technical leaders, and decision makers on their journey from monolithic big data architecture to a sociotechnical paradigm that draws from modern distributed architecture. A data mesh considers domains as a first-class concern, applies platform thinking to create self-serve data infrastructure, treats data as a product, and introduces a federated and computational model of data governance. This book shows you why and how. Examine the current data landscape from the perspective of business and organizational needs, environmental challenges, and existing architectures Analyze the landscape's underlying characteristics and failure modes Get a complete introduction to data mesh principles and its constituents Learn how to design a data mesh architecture Move beyond a monolithic data lake to a distributed data mesh.

The immense increase on the size and type of real time data generated across various edge computing platform results in unstructured databases and data silos. This edited book gathers together an international set of researchers to investigate the possibilities offered by data-fabric solutions; the volume focuses in particular on data architectures and on semantic changes in future data landscapes.

This leads to employees, customers, and suppliers finding every interaction with the organization frustrating. Practical Data Quality provides a comprehensive view of managing data quality within your organization, covering everything from business cases through to embedding improvements that you make to the organization permanently. Each chapter explains a key element of data quality management, from linking strategy and data together to profiling and designing business rules which reveal bad data. The book outlines a suite of tried-and-tested reports that highlight bad data and allow you to develop a plan to make corrections. Throughout the book, you’ll work with real-world examples and utilize re-usable templates to accelerate your initiatives. By the end of this book, you’ll have gained a clear understanding of every stage of a data quality initiative and be able to drive tangible results for your organization at pace.What you will learn Explore data quality and see how it fits within a data management programme Differentiate your organization from its peers through data quality improvement Create a business case and get support for your data quality initiative Find out how business strategy can be linked to processes, analytics, and data to derive only the most important data quality rules Monitor data through engaging, business-friendly data quality dashboards Integrate data quality into everyday business activities to help achieve goals Avoid common mistakes when implementing data quality practices Who this book is for This book is for data analysts, data engineers, and chief data officers looking to understand data quality practices and their implementation in their organization. This book will also be helpful for business leaders who see data adversely affecting their success and data teams that want to optimize their data quality approach. No prior knowledge of data quality basics is required.

As data is an important asset for any organization, it is essential to apply semantic technologies in data science to fulfill the need of any organization. This first volume of a two-volume handbook set provides a roadmap for new trends and future developments of data science with semantic technologies. Data Science with Semantic Technologies: New Trends and Future Developments highlights how data science enables the user to create intelligence through these technologies. In addition, this book offers the answers to various questions such as: Can semantic technologies facilitate data science? Which type of data science problems can be tackled by semantic technologies? How can data scientists benefit from these technologies? What is the role of semantic technologies in data science? What is the current progress and future of data science with semantic technologies? Which types of problems require the immediate attention of the researchers? What should be the vision 2030 for data science? This volume can serve as an important guide toward applications of data science with semantic technologies for the upcoming generation and, thus, it is a unique resource for scholars, researchers, professionals, and practitioners in this field.

Digital, cloud, and artificial intelligence (AI) have disrupted how we use data. This disruption has changed the way we need to provision, curate, and publish data for the multiple use cases in today's technology-driven environment. This text will cover how to design, develop, and evolve a data platform for all the uses of enterprise data needed in today's digital organization. This book focuses on explaining what a data platform is, what value it provides, how is it engineered, and how to deploy a data platform and support organization. In this context, Introduction to Data Platforms reviews the current requirements for data in the digital age and quantifies the use cases; discusses the evolution of data over the past twenty years, which is a core driver of the modern data platform; defines what a data platform is and defines the architectural components and layers of a data platform; provides the architectural layers or capabilities of a data platform; reviews cloud- and commercial-software vendors that populate the data-platform space; provides a step-by-step approach to engineering, deploying, supporting, and evolving a data-platform environment; provides a step-by-step approach to migrating legacy data warehouses, data marts, and data lakes/sandboxes to a data platform; and reviews organizational structures for managing data platform environments.

This book reports a set of novel research initiatives on ambient intelligence and ubiquitous computing that help researchers and practitioners identify recent advances, as well as the frontiers in these study domains. During the last two decades, both study areas have gained great interest in industry and academia due to the benefits of using smart solutions in various application domains, such as health care, ambient-assisted living, personal security and privacy, citizen participation, provision of urban services, and precision agriculture and farming. The articles included in this book report solutions and provide empirical results on their suitability to address problems and opportunities in these application domains. The articles also include discussions on how the proposals and their evaluation results inform the design of the next generation of ubiquitous and smart systems. Researchers, practitioners, and graduate students take advantage of this knowledge to address innovation and engineering aspects of smart and ubiquitous solutions for the next decade.
