Speaking at Global Azure Norway 2021

On Friday, April 16th, 2021, I will be speaking at Global Azure Norway! Global Azure is a virtual 3-day event where communities from around the world organize live streams that are open for everyone to join. All the live streams add up to one global event with more than 500 speakers and sessions, so you should be able to find something interesting 🤓

I will be presenting my session called Pipeline and Data Flows: Introduction to Data Integration in Azure Synapse Analytics. Do you want to learn about something else? You can find all the worldwide sessions on the Global Azure website, or the local sessions on the Global Azure Norway website.

Pipelines and Data Flows: Introduction to Data Integration in Azure Synapse Analytics

Do you regularly need to get data for your projects?

Yep! 🙋‍♀️

Data is at the core of every Business Intelligence, Data Science, and Machine Learning project. You need data to understand what has happened in the past, to predict what may happen in the future, to discover patterns and anomalies, and to gain the insight necessary for making faster and better decisions.

But before you can do any of those things, you need to ingest, store, transform, integrate, and prepare your data. Guess what? You can do all of those things in Azure Synapse Analytics - without having to write any code!

In this session, we will cover the fundamentals of data integration in Azure Synapse Analytics. First, we will discuss when Azure Synapse Analytics is the right tool of choice. Then, we will go through what Pipelines and Data Flows are, and when to use them. Finally, we will see how easy it is to ingest and transform data both on-premises and in the cloud.
