Modern Data Warehousing: The New Approach to Azure BI with Simon Whiteley

Technology changes quickly – patterns and approaches less so. As people move towards the cloud, there are clear benefits of adopting a distributed cloud architecture employing a range of disparate tools. As this evolves, the patterns that were designed for single box solutions should be challenged.

This session will take you through the pattern known as the Lambda architecture, a reference pattern for building data analytics systems that can handle any combination of data velocity, variety and volume. The session will outline the set of tools and integration points that can underpin the approach. Do you need to build out real-time reporting systems? Or crunch through petabytes of data? Or perhaps you are adopting a cloud architecture and simply want to make sure it can handle anything the future throws at it? Whether you’re dealing with Gigabytes or Petabyes, Daily Loads or Data Streaming – This session is for you.

We will follow the movement of data through batch and speed layers via Azure Data Lake Store & Analytics, Data Factory, SQL Datawarehouse and Streaming Analytics, before looking briefly at Azure Analysis Services with PowerBI. This is a largely theory-based session to prime you for the future.
