Data Observability: Beyond the Horizon of Data Quality in a Dynamic World

In a world where data is flowing like never before, observability becomes an essential compass for organizations seeking to understand, manage and optimize their data in a dynamic and constantly changing environment.

During this roundtable, we will bring together leading experts in data science, technology and cybersecurity to explore the fundamental concept of Data Observability and its importance in today’s context. Beyond traditional data quality, observability takes us to a deeper level, where we understand not only the accuracy of data, but also its context, relevance and flow over time.

We will explore how organizations can implement effective observability practices to stay on top of changes in data, detect emerging patterns, and proactively adapt to market trends and customer needs. We will discuss innovative tools and technologies that enable real-time observation of data, enabling agile, data-driven decision making.
