Dan Linstedt - #TrueDataOps Podcast Ep.13

“In the data world, there are lots of advances in cloud technology that should not go unnoticed or ignored… I think the future is cloud – there’s no question about it.”

This episode of the #TrueDataOps podcast episode 13 brought together Kent Graziano aka The Data Warrior with his longtime friend Dan Linstedt, inventor of the data vault system of business intelligence. Linstedt predicts a necessary convergence between operational systems and analytics. He introduces the concept of "MetaDataOps," arguing that organizations must move beyond simple glossaries toward dynamic taxonomies and ontologies to maintain data context. The conversation also explores Dynamic Data Warehousing, noting that while the technology and AI are now ready, success still requires rigorous human governance.

“We’re on a collision course to re-engage business analytics alongside operational systems, at least in the cloud space. It’s because data is growing at an unprecedented rate and it’s about increase again… Data is simply getting too large to move, and this is why I definitely think the cloud is the future...” Hear the rest of what Dan had to say
