Abstract: 

We live in the era of Analytics Heterogeneity - where analytics is not limited to one single methodology, tool or algorithm, but is able to leverage the full potential of the fast-growing and rapid-changing ecosystem of analytical solutions and technologies available. However, one byproduct of this evolution has been increasing complexity of how to turn analytics into value. Which new capabilities are needed to be successful in this new era? What can we do to be champions and convert this complexity into a competitive advantage? In this session, I will walk you through the best practices to move from sandbox to production.
