Enterprises who deploy data observability report fewer and shorter incidents due to data quality issues. However, deploying data observability widely within an enterprise can be daunting, especially for teams who have experienced a heavy lift when rolling out other data governance technologies. This talk will review the top challenges enterprises will face when pursuing a data observability initiative, and a mix of process and technology solutions that can mitigate them to speed up time to value so data governance teams can show business-facing results quickly.
ABOUT THE TALK: Incident management is a key practice used by DevOps and SRE teams to keep software reliable—but it's still uncommon among data teams! Datadog says incident management can "streamline their response procedures, reducing mean time to repair (MTTR) and minimizing any impact on end users."
In this talk, Kyle Kirwan, co-founder of data observability company Bigeye, will explain the basics of incident management and how data teams can use it to reduce disruptions to analytics and machine learning applications.
ABOUT THE SPEAKER: Kyle Kirwan is the co-founder and CEO of Bigeye. He began his career as a data scientist, went on to lead the development of Uber's internal data catalog/lineage/quality tools, and now helps data teams use data observability to improve pipeline reliability and data quality.
