Another month gone, and we're excited to share the content we published on the blog in May. Webinars continue to be the name of the game as things slowly transition, and we're hopeful that in the next few months, we'll have some real in-person event...
A few months ago, we kicked off a new blog series where we ask some of our IT experts what they like about certain technologies, as well as the vendors/partners behind those technologies. After all, the IT landscape is an expansive one. Knowing which solutions...
As 2020 was coming to a close at InterWorks, we were approached with a unique problem from an organization we greatly respect. Amazon has been at the forefront of cloud computing for the better part of my career, and in recent years, they have been...
It goes without saying (though the whole point of this blog is to say it) that 2020 was a year unlike any other. For many of us, what come to mind first are the negative aspects of the year: COVID, wildfires, social injustice, isolation. But...
Congratulations to each and every one of you on making it through the toughest year I could have ever imagined. This year has been filled with so much pain, disappointment and fear, but now that we are nearing the end, I cannot say anything other...
Over the last 40 years, we’ve seen a revolution in data analytics, starting with the invention of SQL and the Relational Database by IBM in the late 1970s, the advent of the personal computer (also IBM), the spreadsheet (Lotus 123), the internet protocol, web browser,...
Snowflake’s cloud-first architecture has unlocked access to data in a way that was previously impossible. For the first time in history, data is accessible, affordable and fast. As users began to receive tangible value from their data-warehousing efforts, it quickly became clear that this data...
Data lake is one of the terms in our field that has changed a lot over the years. When I think about data lake as a workload that organizations run, my first thought goes back to the Hadoop days. Hadoop promised that processing true big...
When talking about the “doing” part of data engineering, folks usually want to say something about ETL like, “How are your ETLs running today?” This is a horrible term and even worse in plural form. The new hotness is to flip the “T” and the...
Have you ever been working on a project and wanted to pull in some data that you didn’t have access to? This has happened to me on far too many occasions. My next step is to figure out where I am going to get that data from then...
When you think of data science (for the purposes of this blog, this will encompass all machine learning and AI activities), you may think of specific aspects. I would make a wager that most people think specifically about model building. The Data Science Process Data science is...
Snowflake has long been the Cloud Data Warehouse. The organization has completely changed the game with unique architecture purpose-built for the cloud: allowing scalable storage and compute for data warehousing projects, all within a SQL-compliant database. The benefits of Snowflake’s modern architecture were obvious, and over...
Five years ago, in the distant past that still included large, boozy, in-person technology conferences, I met two guys from an upstart cloud data warehousing company called Snowflake. Walter Aldana and Uday Keshavdas were those two guys, and while they are both great and were...
Tableau is the #1 visual analytics platform in the world. In part, it has accomplished this by providing its user base with a tremendous amount of flexibility when it comes to data sources. By my last count, Tableau has over 80 native connectors to a...
Two weeks ago, my fellow content connoisseur Andrea Avey sat down with InterWorks IT gurus Scott Matlock and Tim Rhymer to talk about the impact of the cloud on IT over the past ten years. That’s some serious ground to cover, and they did a...
It’s the dawn of a new year and, indeed, a new decade, which brings with it a good amount of self-reflection for individuals and organizations alike. Think for a second about how much has changed in the world of technology these past ten years. We...
As we hit refresh on a new month, new year and new decade, it makes sense for us to look back on the road that brought us to where we are currently. When we think about all the changes that have taken place in tech...
Surprise, surprise … another year in the books. I genuinely contemplated copying and pasting the opening paragraph of last year’s blog, but here I am writing an original opening to close out the decade. Start strong, finish strong, right? And as we begin a new...
Today is the day! Snowflake is now in preview on Google Cloud Platform (GCP) in the us-central1 region. This news is something Snowflake fans have been looking forward to for quite some time, but now that it’s finally here, I wanted to share why this...
Earlier this week, at Tableau Conference 2019, Tableau and Amazon Web Services (AWS) unveiled a new initiative that will change the way Tableau users scale self-service analytics in the cloud: Modern Cloud Analytics (MCA). This initiative combines the deep well of partner resources from both...
