Sponsored by: RowZero | Spreadsheets in the modern data stack: security, governance, AI, and self-serve analytics
2025-06-11 · 00:20
Breck Fresen
– CEO
@ Row Zero
Despite the proliferation of cloud data warehousing, BI tools, and AI, spreadsheets are still the most ubiquitous data tool. Business teams in finance, operations, sales, and marketing often need to analyze data in the cloud data warehouse but don't know SQL and don't want to learn BI tools. AI tools offer a new paradigm but still haven't broadly replaced the spreadsheet. With new AI tools and legacy BI tools providing business teams access to data inside Databricks, security and governance are put at risk. In this session, Row Zero CEO, Breck Fresen, will share examples and strategies data teams are using to support secure spreadsheet analysis at Fortune 500 companies and the future of spreadsheets in the world of AI. Breck is a former Principal Engineer from AWS S3 and was part of the team that wrote the S3 file system. He is an expert in storage, data infrastructure, cloud computing, and spreadsheets. |
