Trending BI Front Ends and Back Ends: A Tech Landscape Update

LIVE WEBINAR

Facilitator: Lester DSouza, Manager, Government Reporting, UTS

Technology evolves rapidly. In this session we'll discuss practical concerns about tool choices and architecture that are crucial for BI professionals building and maintaining systems. This keeps members up-to-date with current industry trends in BI tooling.

Some of the topics we'll discuss include:

• Front-end deep dive: Focus on leading visualisation tools (e.g. Power BI, Tableau, Qlik Sense – including their latest features and integration capabilities), and potentially niche tools for specific analytical needs.

• User experience (UX) and data storytelling capabilities of these tools.

• Back-end architectures: Discussion on cloud data platforms (Azure Synapse, AWS Redshift, Google BigQuery, Snowflake), modern data warehousing concepts (data lakehouses), and tools for data integration and transformation (ETL/ELT).

• Data mesh/fabric concepts: Brief overview of emerging architectural paradigms that impact front-end and back-end integration.

• Security and governance: How security is managed across the modern BI stack.

• Interactive element: Poll attendees on what tools they currently use/are considering.

The aim is to facilitate a discussion on pros and cons based on real world experiences. Basically, a ‘day in the life of a dataflow through a modern stack'.
