Part 10/13:
Traditionally, data functional components—such as data lakes, warehouses, ML platforms, and BI tools—operate as separate silos. The emerging vision is a unified, AI-first platform where:
Data ingestion, cleaning, modeling, and analysis happen within an integrated environment.
Models and insights are tightly coupled with data pipelines.
Business applications, dashboards, and APIs are powered by a shared AI-driven backbone.
This agentic framework involves using intelligent agents—powered by advanced tools—to:
Automate data discovery and cataloging
Monitor data health and compliance
Generate and test data pipelines
Facilitate collaboration among data engineers, scientists, and business teams
