While each track offers valuable insights, here are the four most relevant for metadata leaders, AI practitioners, and governance professionals (aka, the Humans of Data we know best):
- Data & AI Governance: Learn how leading teams are automating policy enforcement, scaling trust, and evolving beyond traditional governance.
- Artificial Intelligence: Explore real-world enterprise use cases, tooling, and architectures that bring LLMs, agentic systems, and GenAI workloads from prototype to production.
- Data Lakehouse Architecture and Implementation: Dive into the latest open lakehouse technologies like Iceberg and Delta. Discover how to design interoperable, scalable data architectures that support AI-ready operations across modern enterprises.
- Data Sharing & Collaboration: See how teams are delivering interoperability and context across platforms and personas.
