CEO Keynote Feat. the CIO of Workato | The Data Apps Conference

The enterprise software landscape is at a pivotal turning point. For decades, organizations have been trapped in a cycle of siloed applications—first in on-premise data centers, and then repackaged as cloud SaaS solutions. While infrastructure has become more flexible, scalable, and cost-effective, the applications running on top remain frustratingly rigid, expensive, and disconnected.

In this session, Mike Palmer (CEO of Sigma) and Carter Busse (CIO of Workato) discuss the shift from "best-of-breed" point solutions to an "end-to-end" approach powered by data apps. They'll explore:

Why traditional SaaS applications force organizations to adapt their workflows to software limitations rather than the other way around How the centralization of data in cloud warehouses creates the foundation for building custom, integrated workflows Real-world examples of organizations replacing expensive, disconnected tools with purpose-built data apps The future of enterprise software, including predictions on how AI will reshape application development and data accessibility Practical strategies for starting your data apps journey without creating new technology sprawl Learn how forward-thinking organizations are using data apps to create workflows that better match their business needs, increase decision-making velocity, boost accuracy, and dramatically reduce software costs—all while maintaining enterprise-grade governance and security.
