Getting Started with SurrealDB is a 3-part online workshop series hosted by Women Coding Community in collaboration with SurrealDB. During these hands-on workshops, Caroline Morton - software engineer and senior research fellow at SurrealDB - will demonstrate SurrealDB's functionality and use cases, both as a traditional relational database, as well as highlighting the additional features and benefits of a multi-model database.

--

SurrealDB and the WCC Platform: Practical Application in Real-World Projects

In this session, we will take the concepts learned in the previous talk and apply them to the Women Coding Community (WCC) platform. We’ll explore how SurrealDB’s features can be used to meet some of the platform’s needs, such as facilitating basic database functions as well as vector search for matching mentors and mentees. This hands-on example will show how SurrealDB can help solve real-world problems, giving participants a better understanding of how the database can be applied to projects beyond theory. It’s a chance to see SurrealDB in action, tackling practical challenges in a real-world setting. This will build on what we covered in session 2.

Agenda:

• 20:00 - 20:10 Introduction to Women Coding Community
• 20:10 - 21:10 Tech Talk
• 21:10 - 21:30 Q&A

SurrealDB

👉 Get started with SurrealDB: https://sdb.li/getstarted 👉 Explore the new and improved features of SurrealDB 2.0

Key features of SurrealDB: ⭐ Reduces development time: SurrealDB simplifies your database and API stack by removing the need for most server-side components, allowing you to build secure, performant apps faster and cheaper. ⭐ Real-time collaborative API backend service: SurrealDB functions as both a database and an API backend service, enabling real-time collaboration. ⭐ Support for multiple querying languages: SurrealDB supports SQL querying from client devices, GraphQL, ACID transactions, WebSocket connections, structured and unstructured data, graph querying, full-text indexing, and geospatial querying. ⭐ Granular access control: SurrealDB provides row-level permissions-based access control, giving you the ability to manage data access with precision.

Snowflake was born as the Data Warehouse in the cloud which meant we mostly just did SQL. Well, times have moved on, Snowflake now does a whole lot more!

Artifical Intelligence (AI) is getting all the attention at the moment but good old Machine Learning (ML) has been used for a lot longer to analyse data and make predictions. In this session you'll see how you can use new Snowflake features such as the ML Modelling API, Model Registry, Python API, Datasets and ML Lineage to build end-to-end ML pipelines, all in a single, secure platform.

Loyalty schemes are a hallmark of established retailers—not only do they build consumer trust, they are intelligent and constantly evolving, and Tesco’s Clubcard is the UK’s favorite retail loyalty program. The effects of these discounts are far-reaching, especially for families who rely on getting the best deals to make the most of their money. As Tesco’s tagline goes, every little helps. In turn, the identification and specific details of discounted products can have a profound impact on how consumers view the largest supermarket retailer in the United Kingdom, as well as the operational costs and profits that shareholders are concerned with. How do data and AI inform these offers, what goes into the enterprise-scale analytics that keeps Tesco’s Clubcard the UK’s favorite? Venkat Raghavan is Director of Analytics and Science at Tesco. Venkat’s area of expertise is customer analytics, having been very heavily involved with the Tesco Clubcard loyalty program. Venkat also set up an analytics center of excellence to help break down data silos between teams. Previously, he was a Director of Analytics at Boston Consulting Group and Senior Director for Advanced Analytics & AI for Manthan and a Cross Industry Delivery Leader at Mu Sigma. In the episode, Richie and Venkat explore Tesco’s use of data, the introduction of the clubcard scheme, Tesco’s data-driven innovations in online food retail, understanding customer behavior through loyalty programs and in-app interactions, improving customer experience at Tesco, operating a cohesive data intelligence platform that leverages multiple data sources, communication between data and business teams, pricing and cost management, the challenges of data science at scale, the future of data and much more.  Links Mentioned in the Show: Tesco ClubcardMcKinsey: State of Grocery Europe 2024[Course] Data Science for BusinessRelated Episode: Scaling Enterprise Analytics with Libby Duane Adams, Chief Advocacy Officer and Co-Founder of AlteryxSign up to RADAR: AI Edition New to DataCamp?

Corporations and governmental agencies of all sizes are embracing a new generation of enterprise-scale business intelligence (BI) and data warehousing (DW), and very often appoint a single senior-level individual to serve as the Enterprise BI/DW Program Manager. This book is the essential guide to the incremental and iterative build-out of a successful enterprise-scale BI/DW program comprised of multiple underlying projects, and what the Enterprise Program Manager must successfully accomplish to orchestrate the many moving parts in the quest for true enterprise-scale business intelligence and data warehousing. Author Alan Simon has served as an enterprise business intelligence and data warehousing program management advisor to many of his clients, and spent an entire year with a single client as the adjunct consulting director for a $10 million enterprise data warehousing (EDW) initiative. He brings a wealth of knowledge about best practices, risk management, organizational culture alignment, and other Critical Success Factors (CSFs) to the discipline of enterprise-scale business intelligence and data warehousing.
