Abstract
Enterprises are no longer asking if they should scale their data cloud, but how. Unfortunately, traditional scaling approaches often lead to exploding costs, unpredictable performance, and significant operational overhead. The "move fast and fix it later" mindset has created a technical debt crisis where we are scaling our problems—not our solutions.
This session provides a blueprint for a different approach: The High Performance & Efficient Enterprise Data Cloud. We will demonstrate how to architect a data platform that is built for long-term sustainability, focusing on efficiency and performance as foundational pillars.
This session is essential for data architects, platform engineers, and IT leaders tasked with building a data strategy that is both powerful and practical.
