The Power of Data in the Cloud with Arun Ulag

How has the cloud transformed the way we work with data? While at Build in Seattle, Richard sat down with Arun Ulag, Microsoft CVP of Azure Data, to discuss how the cloud has transformed how we work with data. The pre-cloud practice of extract-transform-and-load into OLAP cubes has given way to the data lake - you don't need to pre-process data if you have all the compute you need on demand. Arun goes further into empowering analysts using tools like PowerBI - but the key is access to data. With Microsoft Fabric, data lives in OneLake - or anywhere through links! Today, the data analytics landscape spans different product stacks and clouds - but all are available to learn more about your business!
