Our CTO, Frederic Van Haren, was interviewed for SiliconANGLE & theCUBE’s Future of Data Platforms Summit.
He chatted with theCUBE’s Rob Strechay about how enterprises are rapidly evolving their data platforms to power AI-driven applications. Their discussion explored the real-world complexity leaders face as they balance infrastructure choices (CPUs, GPUs, and storage) with strategies for data gravity, persistent silos, and the intricacies of data lifecycle management.
Essential insights from Frederic:
💠 To design for AI workloads, you must move from compute- to data-centric strategies, integrate hardware and software for agility, and focus on extracting value, not just storing data.
💠 Simply storing data isn’t enough. As Frederic says, “Storing data is like buying books and not reading them.” With complex infrastructures, data gravity, and persistent silos, success depends on scalable solutions, open standards, and real-time insights.
How is your team approaching the transformation of your data platform for AI?
