Interview with Barry Devlin, recognized as the Father of the Data Warehouse. In this podcast we discuss the role of data preparation, data cleansing, and the boring mundane stuff and why the boring stuff matters. A lot.
In just about every business analytics project, there are the fun parts and the drudgery parts. Most data scientists want to plunge in with the algorithms and the complex modeling, while rushing through mundane production tasks, such as data cleanliness and data governance. In short, they want to jump to the exploratory areas while blowing past production issues. But, like almost everything else in business, there’s a cost for avoiding the boring details. Barry Devlin, author and consultant with his 9Sight Consulting firm, has been leading in data warehouse work since 1985. Devlin argues that these corner-cutters are increasing how long projects take to get done and their financial cost.
