Become a data-driven organisation with DataOps
by Meliska Meintjes on Mar 18, 2022 1:42:16 PM
DevOps concepts are applied to data management for analytics in DataOps and have proven value in the data analytics world. In terms of downstream analytics and data science teams, DataOps promises speed, efficiency, quality, and productionization of data delivery.
DataOps is a rising big data analytic trend, and it continues to grow in importance. Data are becoming more complex, and organizations are looking for new ways to align their data with their processes and people. To be able to handle substantial data sources in their data warehouses or lake houses, there is a need for better tools and integrations demanded by the digital economy.
What is DataOps
DataOps is a principle that helps organizations combine access to information for the employees that consume data and those that provide them.
DataOps borrows many DevOps concepts, which integrate software development and IT operations to improve products through speed, quality, predictability, and scale. These same concepts are also applied to data analytics.
Companies willing to become customer-centric and data-driven begin to optimize their decisions using all their data and predictive insights. Their employees have access to all the data to enable them to make better and smarter decisions. These insights can be used for the optimization of marketing and e-commerce management such as personalization, omnichannel, loyalty, ROI management, and predictive marketing like the next best actions and offers.
Objectives of DataOps
DataOps is founded on the concepts of Agile Development, DevOps, and Lean Manufacturing following the DataOps Manifesto that Crystalloids has signed. With DataOps you decide which data and insights have the highest priority and should be developed first.
An increasingly complex data landscape and dataflows have put a great deal of stress on data teams. Project backlogs have increased, while analytics and business teams continue to wait for new data required for their analytics and often lack confidence in the data they do receive.
What makes a DataOps team unique is that demand and supply are on one side and that the team decides what has the highest priority and should be developed first. A DataOps team is not only responsible for developing new solutions but is also responsible for maintaining the operational environment. In other words, the team builds new solutions, uses these new solutions to get even better insights, and manages the solutions at the same time!
