Eric Gonzalez, VP, Business Intelligence Architecture @ Eastern Bank

Vaishnavi Muraldihar, Data Engineer @ Intuit

Michael Del Balso, CEO & Co-Founder @ Tecton

This panel will explore critically different perspectives on batch, streaming, and real-time data processing, shedding light on common misconceptions, cost considerations, decision-making criteria, and the future of these architectures.

The panelists will discuss the most prevalent misconception in this domain, address the cost challenges of streaming architectures, and share insights on potential cost reduction strategies. They will also explore the decision-making criteria that guide organizations in choosing between these processing methods and discuss ways to make streaming data processing more accessible.

Furthermore, the advantages of streaming data for machine learning will be examined, emphasizing its potential to revolutionize real-time insights and predictive capabilities.
