Episode notes
Data's Role in Digital Transformation
- Data is crucial for digital transformation, but often neglected.
- Modernizing infrastructure necessitates data migration, which can be challenging due to cultural clashes rather than technical issues.
Database Choices
- Don't automatically choose the newest database.
- Consider building a single, customizable database instead of separate specialized systems.
Legacy Databases

- Focus on greenfield projects first to understand long-term data needs.
