What you'll learn

  • Discover how GE uses machine learning (powered by Io-Tahoe) in data discovery and profiling for data engineering

Description

Today’s technology allows us to gather, transform, and consume data at a scale and complexity that was previously unimaginable. As companies leverage these new capabilities, it remains critical that they are able to discover and surface the relationships between events and transactions captured from different systems and processes. Use cases such as financial reporting and analysis require a well-integrated, harmonized, and accurate data model.

GE is leveraging the power of machine learning in data discovery and profiling as its data engineering teams surface the threads among its data assets. This data threading is essential in delivering next-generation analytics and powers an increasing catalogue of data science models and microservices. Join Arun Murugan and Jeff Miller to learn how GE’s data engineers adopt machine learning to deliver an integrated set of enterprise canonical models to deliver value to the enterprise.

Topics include:

  • Business criticality of finance closing process and dependency on analytical solutions
  • Data modeling needs for enterprise data lakes
  • Why data threading is important
  • Machine learning use cases for data associations and correlations

This session is sponsored by Io-Tahoe.
