In Part 1 of this series, I made the case that data transformation starts with leadership, not technology. We talked about what it takes to build the right foundation: Starting with clarity of purpose before a single platform is selected, getting your organization aligned on...
Databricks Unity Catalog is one of the most capable governance systems in the data platform space. It puts access control, lineage and cross-workspace governance for your entire Databricks account under one roof. It's also a system where practitioners routinely get tripped up — not on...
Months are kinda feeling like weeks this year, right? I'm not the only one feeling that? Somehow, we're about a quarter of the way through 2026, and things aren't feeling like they're slowing down anytime soon. But that's okay! Whatever the year brings, the InterWorks blog...
There is a moment most data leaders recognize immediately when they hear it described. A critical meeting is underway, executives around the table, a big decision on the line and someone asks a simple question, "What does the data say?" The room goes quiet. Not because...
We had 257 PDFs nobody could search easily — technical manuals for the medical devices our team supports every day. When a tech needed an answer, it was there, buried on page 2 of a file three folders deep in Box. Now, they just ask...
If you’ve been using Claude Code for more than a few weeks, you probably have the same problem I did: Too much stuff installed. It starts innocently. You see a plugin that looks useful, so you install it. Someone shares a skill for generating presentations, so...
Can your smartwatch tell when you had a bad week before you admit it? We built a full data pipeline from Apple Watch to Snowflake to Tableau to find out — and what came back was more honest than we expected. Click here to see the...
Every company has a handbook. And every company has employees who ask questions the handbook already answers — they just don't know where to look. HR tackles the same requests week after week. New hires scroll through pages of policy. The information exists. The problem...
Most organizations are on a quest for meaningful AI solutions, looking at different ways to implement new tools into their stack. A recurring pattern in these initiatives is the gap that quickly opens between the high promises and novel buzzwords on one hand, and the...
Hey there, folks! This wild ride keeps right on going, doesn't it? Nevertheless, so do we! This month on the InterWorks blog, we had a record-setting number of blogs come out. From start to finish, we managed to get 32 blogs out into the aether, which is...
Historically, BI tools drew a clear line between the people who model the data and the people who build the dashboards. Sigma collapses that gap. You're working directly against the warehouse, operating on non-aggregated data with a bottom-up, spreadsheet-like approach, and transforming the data as you go. That flexibility is...
Most AI initiatives stall between pilot and production. The path through starts with your experts, not your architecture. A client messaged us recently after building a full data transformation with a single prompt using an AI coding assistant. He was fired up, and rightfully so. His...
It Started with a Policy, Not a Tool Before anyone at InterWorks touched an AI tool, every employee signed an AI Usage Policy. This wasn't bureaucratic caution. It was the foundation. The policy set expectations for what's acceptable, what's not and what the consequences are. When things inevitably...
A client came to us with a mandate from their CTO: They wanted their business users to be able to ask natural language questions against their Snowflake data, specifically from Claude Desktop rather than Snowflake Intelligence or a custom Streamlit app in Snowflake. Claude Desktop...
A common question we've been getting lately is whether Sigma supports multi-layer maps. More specifically, people want to know if it's possible to display polygons, lines and points on the same map; for example, showing a ski resort boundary while also displaying lift lines and...
Sigma's action framework has come a long way. Bulk update and bulk delete gave app builders serious power over input tables. But one gap remained: There's no native way to insert multiple rows with a single action. Sure, you could chain 48 insert row actions...
This is part of an ongoing series where I discuss Terraform and its specific benefits (or drawbacks) to data teams. What This Blog is Not Meant to Be This blog is not meant to be a How to Terraform Your Snowflake Data Warehouse blog. If you are...
As a seasoned user and regular trainer of Tableau, I've learned that if there's one way to do something in Tableau, there are probably two or three ways. So this week, I’m sharing five of the best time-saving things I’ve learned to do in Tableau! 1....
You've done the hard work — built a clean portal, organized the navigation and connected the right data. But if your users are still asking the same questions, skipping features or just not logging in as often as you'd expect, the issue usually isn't the...
When you're embedding Tableau Dashboards into your Curator for different teams, departments or clients, two things become critical: Making sure users only see the Dashboards they have access to. Making sure the data inside those Dashboards is filtered to what they're allowed to see. Rest assured...
