Operational automation–including but not limited to, auto diagnosis, auto remediation, auto configuration, auto tuning, auto scaling, auto debugging, and auto testing–is key to the success of modern data platforms. In this way, no human intervention is required in the remediation process. Multi-objective optimizations.

At its most basic, automating IT processes works by executing scripts or procedures either on a schedule or in response to particular events, such as checking a file into a code repository. Adding AIOps to automation processes makes the volume of data that applications and multicloud environments generate much less overwhelming.

Setting up a data warehouse is the first step towards fully utilizing big data analysis. Still, it is one of many that need to be taken before you can generate value from the data you gather. An important step in that chain of the process is data modeling and transformation.

There are several benefits of such optimizations like saving on storage, faster query time, cheaper downstream processing, and an increase in developer productivity by removing additional ETLs written only for query performance improvement. Some of the optimizations are prerequisites for a high-performance data warehouse.

Instead of relying on engineers to productionize scientific contributions, we’ve made a strategic bet to build an architecture that enables data scientists to easily contribute. The two main challenges with this approach are establishing an easy contribution framework and handling Netflix’s scale of data.

A common theme across all these trends is to remove the complexity by simplifying data management as a whole. In 2018, we anticipate that ETL will either lose relevance or the ETL process will disintegrate and be consumed by new data architectures. Unified data management architecture.
