Mastering Cloud Data Cost Control: A FinOps Approach

With the rise of cloud-first initiatives and pay-per-use systems, forecasting IT costs has become a challenge. It's easy to start small, but it's equally easy to get skyrocketing bills with little warning. FinOps is a discipline that tries to tackle these issues, by providing the framework to understand and optimize cloud costs in a more controlled manner. The Denodo Platform, being a middleware layer in charge of global data delivery, sits in a privileged position not only to help us understand where costs are coming from, but also to take action, manage, and reduce them.

Cloud Migration Strategies that Ensure Greater Value for the Business

The cloud is no longer the future; the cloud is now. Companies continue to shift their workloads and data to the cloud to leverage the speed, agility, and efficient scalability the cloud offers. As a result, there is increasing attention given to cloud-based data warehouses, data lakes, and lake houses as a way for organizations to simplify managing their ever-increasing volumes of data. However, many find that these new technologies only complicate the data management process.

Shaping the Role of a Data Lake in a Modern Data Fabric Architecture

Data lakes have been both praised and loathed. They can be incredibly useful to an organization, but it can also be the source of major headaches. Its ease to scale storage with minimal cost has opened the door to many new solutions, but also to a proliferation of runaway objects that have coined the term data swamp.

However, the addition of an MPP engine, based on Presto, to Denodo’s logical layer can change the way you think about the role of the data lake in your overall data strategy.

Data lakes have grown to be a popular architecture that enables modern analytics and data science. However, complete replication of all corporate data into giant data lakes is unfeasible. Data volumes are too high, and replication to multiple systems creates brittle point-to-point connections. Out-of-synch data and uncontrolled replication leads to “data swamp” scenarios.
