AI is only as good as the data it runs on. Yet Gartner predicts in 2026, over 60% of AI projects will fail to deliver value - because the underlying data isn’t truly AI-ready. “Good enough” data isn’t enough.

In this exclusive BDL launch session, DataOps.live reveal Momentum, the next generation of its DataOps automation platform designed to operationalize trusted AI at enterprise scale.

Based on experiences from building over 9000 Data Products to date, Momentum introduces breakthrough capabilities including AI-Ready Data Scoring to ensure data is fit for AI use cases, Data Product Lineage for end-to-end visibility, and a Data Engineering Agent that accelerates building reusable data products. Combined with automated CI/CD, continuous observability, and governance enforcement, Momentum closes the AI-readiness gap by embedding collaboration, metadata, and automation across the entire data lifecycle.

Backed by Snowflake Ventures and trusted by leading enterprises, including AstraZeneca, Disney and AT&T, DataOps.live is the proven catalyst for scaling AI-ready data. In this session, you’ll unpack what AI-ready data really means, learn essential practices, discover a faster, easier, and more impactful way to make your AI initiatives succeed.

Be the first to see Momentum in action - the future of AI-ready data.

Get ready for a customer story that’s as bold as it is eye-opening. In this session, Eutelsat and DataOps.live pull back the curtain on what it really takes to deliver business-changing outcomes with a specific focus on the Use Cases addressed by Apache at the core. And these Use Cases are BIG – think about big, big numbers, and you still aren’t even close!

You’ll hear the inside story of how Eutelsat found itself with two “competing” cloud data platforms. What could have been an expensive headache turned out to be an advantage: Iceberg made it not only possible but cheaper and simpler to use both together, unlocking agility and cost savings that no single platform alone could provide.

The impact is already tangible. Telemetry pipelines are live and delivering massive value. Next up: interoperable Data Products seamlessly moving from Snowflake to Cloudera and vice versa, driving cross-platform innovation. And that’s just the start—Eutelsat is also positioning Iceberg as a future-proof standard for data sharing and export.

This is a story of scale, speed, and simplification—the kind of transformation only possible when a visionary team meets the right technology.

Ten years ago, I began advocating for **DataOps**, a framework designed to improve collaboration, efficiency, and agility in data management. The industry was still grappling with fragmented workflows, slow delivery cycles, and a disconnect between data teams and business needs. Fast forward to today, and the landscape has transformed, but have we truly embraced the future of leveraging data at scale? This session will reflect on the evolution of DataOps, examining what’s changed, what challenges persist, and where we're headed next.

**Key Takeaways:**

✅ The biggest wins and ongoing struggles in implementing DataOps over the last decade. 

✅ Practical strategies for improving automation, governance, and data quality in modern workflows. 

✅ How emerging trends like AI-driven automation and real-time analytics are reshaping the way we approach data management. 

✅ Actionable insights on how data teams can stay agile and align better with business objectives. 

**Why Attend?**

If you're a data professional, architect, or leader striving for operational excellence, this talk will equip you with the knowledge to future-proof your data strategies.

DataOps, and more recently, Data Products have still only been around for a relatively short period of time. 

However, the collective experience of those who have been working in this area is now sufficiently large that patterns and trends have emerged, as well as a regular set of misconceptions! 

In this session, Keith Belanager, DataOps.live Field CTO and multi decade practitioner, Paul Rankin, former Head of Data Platforms and Governance at Roche Diagnostics, multi decade practitioner and Data Mesh and Data Products expert, and Guy Adams, DataOps.live co-founder and author of DataOps for Dummies and Data Products for Dummies, meet to discuss the top myths and misconceptions they see and give the real facts!
