The most expensive mistake you can make on a Sigma App project isn't a technical one. It's starting to build before you've clearly defined what you're building. I've seen projects double in scope mid build because the initial conversation used "Sigma App" to mean something...
I'm a code first person. Given a choice between clicking through a UI and writing SQL, I'll write the SQL. It's faster, clearer and I can read it later. That preference isn't a problem in Sigma. The challenge I ran into wasn't that Sigma didn't...
Why Bulk Insert Is Hard in Sigma Sigma's writeback is designed for row by row input. A user fills out a form, hits submit, one row gets written. That works well for simple data entry. The problem comes when one user action needs to produce multiple output...
In Part 1 and Part 2 of this series, I made the case that data transformation is fundamentally about leadership and people, not just technology. We talked about building the right foundation, getting aligned on shared definitions, mastering data storytelling and managing change with intention....
It’s one of the most common questions I get after a go-live. Here’s a practical look at your options — from Curator’s built-in tools to web analytics integrations and your BI platform’s own usage data. One of the most common questions I get after a Curator...
Why a School Directory Needs More Than Dashboards School directories rarely fail because of complexity. They fail because of process. In most environments: The warehouse holds the authoritative staff and student data Dashboards display it Updates happen somewhere else That separation creates delay, duplication and mistrust. Administrators export...
AI is great at creating visually appealing HTML artifacts, whether these are just summaries of some research findings, mock-ups of some proposed solution or just an agenda for an upcoming meeting. The most common thing to do with these artifacts is to share them with...
Low Friction Development As mentioned in the whitepaper on how to leverage AI to become a world-class dev team, AI has upended who is able to create solutions to business problems. Application development no longer needs to be funneled through a specific group within IT. Now,...
If you're planning a Sigma migration in the next six to twelve months, something just changed that's worth paying attention to. Sigma recently introduced workbooks-as-code into private beta. It's still early, still limited in scope and not yet generally available. But the capability is real,...
Nothing hurts quite as bad as losing data. We recently helped a client recover from a production data loss in a Sigma app — not from a bad import or a broken formula, but from a version restore followed by a tag update. Sigma did...
As Solutions Engineers and Architects, our mindset around BI tools and data platforms needs to continuously shift toward treating data and analytics as the product, as opposed to informational outputs for once-off consumption. We are no longer responsible for proposing solutions that solely consider the...
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...
