Berkeley Course Offerings - Makeover Monday

 

Over the past century, the professional landscape has changed profoundly. And with this change, has seen large changes in the courses offered in universities, including Berkeley in the US.

This Tableau visualisation gives an interest perspective on the courses that have increased their offerings, and those that have remained relatively stagnant in their growth.

Data Mesh - The future for data led organisations
Data Mesh - The future for data led organisations

The main obstacle with any developed data analytics function is the bottleneck of data and skillset – the more central intelligence you have, the more outer teams want to use it, so you need to find a way of allowing data and insights to flow.

If data is so complex that only your highly paid data wizards, how can make sense of it?

Here’s one methodology that we’ll discuss in detail, the Data Mesh:

  1. A decentralised data structure with domain/product teams who own the analytical and operational data:

  2. Self-serve infrastructure, data products and federated governance.

  3. A data-driven decision-making culture across the organisation.

With the Oscars just round the corner (March 12th), it seems fitting to keep on top of the latest movies and see if data can help find the diamonds in the rough!

Christmas - a time to watch TV?

The Christmas break offers so much - from family reunions, beach activities to stuffing ourselves with more food than would normally be appropriate.
