"It was only about 18 months ago that we decided to take a step back and re-evaluate our tech stack," Michael explains. In that time, his team at Nasdaq invested heavily in the modern data stack: Atlan, AWS, dbt, and Monte Carlo. For a highly regulated entity of Nasdaq's scale, getting buy-in and cultural shifts to adopt new technology wasn't easy, so Michael used every tool in his arsenal to build his business case, from surveying data users to quantifying the business value of modern governance. "To get key stakeholders to buy into everything, it was critical we had a plan in place... to reduce friction between data producers and consumers. Without this, the rest of our model would be dead-on-arrival." - Michael Weiss, Nasdaq Offered with the session: Nasdaq's exclusive guide to building a business case (gated). ### 1:15-2:00 PM / Panel with Autodesk, Elastic, Fox, and SMG Swiss Marketplace Group - Implementing a Modern Data Governance Strategy Data mesh or fabric? Data products or assets? Decentralized or centralized? These questions have consumed every data leader's mind in 2023. A panel of data leaders ushering in the modern data governance era, and how they're doing it: - **Mark Kidwell** (Chief Data Architect, Autodesk): how Autodesk's data mesh gives 60 domain teams the ability to create, curate, and consume well-defined data products. - **Takashi Ueki** (Elastic): Elastic's progress towards better ownership through formalized data contracts. - **Mihir Modi** (Data Governance Manager, Fox): Fox's vision of monetizing its data products, using Atlan's data governance platform as its hub for data democratization. - **Amy Raygada** (Senior Data Product Owner, SMG): how data mesh enables SMG Swiss Marketplace Group to manage data for 4 decentralized businesses in one home. ### 2:15-2:45 PM / Masterclass with Fox and Atlan - Navigating a Data Catalog Evaluation in 2023 Speakers: Mihir Modi, Data Governance Manager, Fox / Steven Hloros, Customer Success, Atlan. The landscape of data catalogs has transformed in the last few years. As more businesses move from legacy architectures to the modern data stack, there's a need for new ways of governing data in the 3.0 era, with automation, AI, and collaboration. Questions covered: - What features should I be looking for when evaluating a data catalog? - How should I compare different styles of catalogs against one another? - Outside of features, what selection criteria ultimately will help make the decision? Offered with the session: an evaluation framework with learnings from 200+ data catalog evaluations (gated). ### 3:00-3:45 PM / Panel with DigiKey, HelloFresh, and Porto - Moving from a Legacy Data Catalog to a Modern Active Metadata Platform Speakers: Joseph Stritesky, Senior Data Governance Analyst, DigiKey / Natalie Hallak, Director of Global Data Management, HelloFresh / Danrlei Alves, Senior Data Governance Analyst, Porto. HelloFresh, the largest meal-kit provider in the US, DigiKey, the fifth largest electronics distributor in the world, and Porto, one of Brazil's largest insurance companies, are well-versed with data governance. As their data teams shifted to new paradigms like data products and domains, they needed a different approach to metadata management: active metadata platforms. Their migration story from legacy catalogs to active metadata platforms, addressing: - How do I know if my data catalog is "not working" as expected? - What are the benefits of an active metadata platform vs. a legacy data catalog? - What does it take to migrate to a modern data catalog? ## Next step The only platform that brings all the humans of data & AI together. Customers shown: Autodesk, Nasdaq, Fox, HelloFresh, Cisco, Plaid, General Motors. [Book a Demo](https://atlan.com/forms/talk-to-sales-contact/)
