Data, analytics, and AI solutions showcased at the Strata Data Conference

Two years ago when I reported from Strata NYC I shared how new data prep technologies were bringing data integration and data quality capabilities to business users. Instead of waiting for IT to ETL experimental data into the data warehouse or data lake, business users apply tools like Tableau Prep, Trifacta Wrangler, or Talend Data Preparation, to perform profiling, cleansing, and integrating data on their own. This trend continued at last week's Strata Data Conference as vendors are expanding their capabilities and services inby applying their technologies to business specific use cases. Informatica demoed me Informatica Data Catalog embedded with Claire, an "AI inside" that self classifies data and makes it easier for end users to find data sources and subject matter experts. The CEO of MemGraph demonstrated a real time graph database used to find anomalies and customer relationships.
