The Shift to Data-Centric Operations

The podcast episode explores the shift from an application-centered world to a data-centric one, where logic is embedded in the data rather than locked up in application silos. This shift enables the creation of a prescriptive model of an organization's operations that can integrate top-down plans with bottom-up activities. Unlike traditional data platforms based on historical systems of truth, this new model relies on a semantic layer that unifies the intelligence within application silos, allowing for dynamic connections and digital representation of various dimensions of a business.
