New Technologies are Making Enterprise Data Bigger, Easier and More User-Friendly

Technologies now enable large and diverse data ecosystems to do much of their own management and performance optimization, and the “last mile” to business users can now be largely automated with self-service virtual environments and user-friendly analytics and collaboration tools.

Presenters:
Chris Rogaski, Senior Director, Analytic Applications, eBay

Activity: Where is your company on these technologies and why?

Monday, October 22
3:30pm – 5:15pm

Building Analytic Capabilities: Organizational Skills and Cross-Functional Collaboration Required, and How to Train, Hire and Partner to Achieve Them

Success requires the right analytic skill sets and organizational structure, and effective use of the rapidly expanding array of analytic tool and service providers.
