Our industry has been on a 30-year  march to self-service analytics. The road has been long and dusty with the destination nowhere in sight. Now, three new technologies, along with some hard-won knowledge about how to do data & analytics right, move the promise of self-service analytics from a distant mirage to a real possibility for organizations. This session will explore the rise of data products, data fabric, and generative AI and how these new technologies and approaches are changing the nature of how business users consume data & analytics. 

You Will Learn:

• What a data product is and is not

• How data products facilitate data sharing and self-service

• How a full-stack data fabric enables self-service

• How generative AI supports conversational BI

• Why technology is not enough to deliver on the promise of self-service
