All too often, data models and architecture are an afterthought, often cobbled together with very little rhyme or reason.   

Veronika Durgin (Head of Data @ Saks) joins the show to chat about thoughtful data modeling and architecture. We'll discuss why it pays to be intentional about your data model and architecture. And since this is live streamed on a Friday, we'll probably chat about many other things as well.
