Microsoft Azure Modern Data Platform

The Azure Data Platform consists of numerous storage mechanisms, sometimes making it difficult for a customer to know exactly what they should be using to store and explore data. At eBECS, we work alongside our customers to ensure key business decisions can be made from their data and that BI is a way of thinking – not just the technologies. There are traditionally three types of data:

• Structured – transactional, database data, traditionally defined by structure and metadata
• Unstructured – Wide text files, video/image data, stream data
• Semi-structured – contains a form of structure, but not in a database table type of format. Examples are JSON and XML.

The 45-minute session will focus on the three types of workstream and provide advice to customers on the storage services that are suited to them. Whether your business contains explorative Data Scientists or traditional Database Administrators, the Azure estate provides a wholistic environment to both stabilise and extend your data strategy.

All levels of expertise are encouraged to attend this webinar and as always, eBECS welcome questions and customer stories throughout.

The webinar will cover the following:

• Data Platform
• Data Workloads
• Data Structures
• Comparisons
• Next Steps
