Summary Data is useless if it isn’t being used, and you can’t use it if you don’t know where it is. Data catalogs were the first solution to this problem, but they are only helpful if you know what you are looking for. Data stacks are becoming more and more complex. Sifflet also offers a 2-week free trial.

A Guest Post by Ole Olesen-Bagneux In this blog post I would like to describe a new data team, that I call ‘the data discovery team’. Data discovery is thought of in different ways in data science and in information science respectfully. In an enterprise data reality, searching for data is a bit of a hassle.
