Best Automation Tools In 2025 for Data Pipelines, Integrations, and More

Since I started working in tech, one goal that kept coming up was workflow automation. Whether automating a report or setting up retraining pipelines for machine learning models, the idea was always the same: do less manual work and get more consistent results. But automation isn’t just for analytics. RevOps teams want to streamline processes…

How IT Leaders Can Fight Back Against Vendor Lock-In

Enterprise IT leaders are experiencing growing frustration with software vendors who wield excessive control over their technology roadmaps. From restrictive licensing agreements to forced upgrades and shifting support models, IT departments often find themselves at the mercy of vendors rather than in control of their own digital strategies. With so-called vendor lock-in on the rise, […]

The Biggest Data Backup Disasters of 2024 – and How to Avoid Them in 2025

For businesses everywhere, 2024 was a wake-up call – and not the gentle kind. Major data breaches and catastrophic outages made headlines, reminding us all that data backup isn’t a “nice-to-have” but rather a mission-critical strategy. Let’s recap the year: These high-profile failures weren’t just cautionary tales; they were full-blown cautionary sagas. The key takeaway? […]

Data Quality Metrics Best Practices

The amount of data we deal with has increased rapidly (close to 50TB, even for a small company), whereas 75% of leaders don’t trust their data for business decision-making. Though these are two different stats, the common denominator playing a role could be data quality. With new data flowing from almost every direction, there must be a yardstick or […]

High Alert as Data Breach Fears Reach a Breaking Point

Data breaches are rising, with 44% of consumers reporting that they have experienced fraud, identity theft or financial loss due to breaches. Almost a fifth of consumers unfortunately take no extra data security precautions unless they have personally experienced direct financial harm. So it is up to businesses that hold customer data to take care of it. One measure, is offering two-factor or multifactor authentication on banking or ecommerce websites. After a breach, nearly three quarters of consumers lose trust in that business. Seventy percent say that they would consider taking their business or money elsewhere after a breach and 73% believe that the companies holding their data should be doing more to protect it.

Beyond Paper Policies: Building a Living Data Policy Framework

Data policies serve as the guardrails for how organizations manage their most valuable asset: data. Just as communities establish guidelines for shared community spaces, data policies provide the framework for how teams access, utilize, and govern their collective and shared data resources. These policies aren’t merely bureaucratic exercises. They establish the rules of engagement for […]

AI’s Newest Employee: Who Bears the Burden of Your Digital Co-Workers?

Digital co-workers are no longer hypothetical. AI-driven agents (“Agentics”) are creeping into every function, every decision process, and every interaction within organizations. In some ways, they are the executive dream — they don’t need coffee breaks, demand raises, or call in sick. And yet, they’re reshaping work in ways few leaders are prepared to handle. […]

Data Is Risky Business: Is Data Governance Failing? Or Are We Failing Data Governance?

In January, CDO Magazine carried an article by a consortium of authors including Dr. Tom Redman, John Ladley, Dr. Anne-Marie Smith, and others. The eye-catching headline: “Data Governance is failing — here’s why.” The article sets out the results of a Force Field Analysis study carried out by the authors to try and understand why, […]

Through the Looking Glass: Technology Solutions in Search of a Problem

When I read about new technologies, I often think of the movie “Field of Dreams.” The protagonist builds a baseball field in the middle of a corn field because he hears a voice. “If you build it, they will come.” In the movie’s case, “they” are ghostly baseball players. For technology companies, “they” are businesses […]

A Data Value Manifesto

If you haven’t already heard, a number of organizations have laid off their CDOs and CDO groups and data teams because of a perceived lack of significant or measurable business value. In addition, a recently released report from MIT Sloan delivers some very depressing numbers about the efficacy of CDO groupsi: The average tenure of […]

How Data Modeling Made Me a Better Engineer

My name is Bill Burkett, and I am a data modeler. I don’t call myself that often and sometimes have misgivings about doing so. I often get the feeling that being a “data modeler,” when considered in isolation of other engineering skills, is a less-than-flattering job title. To practical engineers, data modeling conjures images of […]
