I’m still amazed to this day how many folks hold onto stuff they love, they just can’t let it go. I get it, sorta, I’m the same way. There are reasons why people do the things they do, even if they are hard for us to understand. It blows my mind when I see something […] The post Why You Should Replace Pandas with Polars appeared first on Confessions of a Data Guy.

Summary Building a data platform is a substrantial engineering endeavor. Once it is running, the next challenge is figuring out how to address release management for all of the different component parts. The services and systems need to be kept up to date, but so does the code that controls their behavior. In this episode your host Tobias Macey reflects on his current challenges in this area and some of the factors that contribute to the complexity of the problem.

According to Infosys, 35% of AI projects will either fail or experience delays because of poor data quality. There’s a huge gap between the data quality most companies have by default and the data quality needed for successful AI. And that gap is directly affecting the performance and reliability of AI systems everywhere. As organizations expand their use of Snowflake to build and deploy new AI-powered data applications, comprehensive data observability is critical to success.

The pharmaceutical industry generates a great deal of identifiable data (such as clinical trial data, patient engagement data) that has guardrails around “use and access.” Data captured for the intended purpose of use described in a protocol is called “primary use.” However, once anonymized, this data can be used for other inferences in what we can collectively define as secondary analyses.

Hybrid cloud plays a central role in many of today’s emerging innovations—most notably artificial intelligence (AI) and other emerging technologies that create new business value and improve operational efficiencies. But getting there requires data, and a lot of it. More than that, though, harnessing the potential of these technologies requires quality data—without it, the output from an AI implementation can end up inefficient or wholly inaccurate.
