Data Architecture Best Practices

Data architecture provides a blueprint for how an organizations can collect, store, manage, and utilize their data to meet business objectives. It defines the rules, standards, and guidelines for managing data as a valuable organizational asset and supports the integration of data from disparate sources into a coherent and usable whole.

Anti-patterns of data architectures refer to common mistakes and pitfalls that data architects may encounter while designing and implementing data solutions. These anti-patterns can lead to suboptimal performance, data inconsistencies, and high maintenance costs. For example, over-normalization, complex data models among other specific characteristics.

This webinar from data industry thought leader Dr. Pragyansmita Nayak will identify and analyze the most prevalent anti-patterns in data architectures, along with their root causes and potential solutions. By understanding these anti-patterns, data architects can systematically avoid them and design more effective and efficient data solutions while continuing to meet the needs of their organizations.
