A reference data architecture for the cloud. Data warehouse, data lake, or data fabric? – Uli Bethke, CEO, Sonra

I frequently come across data architecture diagrams that are riddled with vendor names and technologies. No question. Tools have a role in data architecture. It is not a primary one though. First and foremost data architecture is abstracted from tools and technologies.

At Sonra we have developed a reference data architecture over the years that makes it bullet proof for most data applications and use cases. I will show you how you can use it for both operational and performance reporting, dashboards, point in time scenarios, text, images, data science, search, realtime scenarios, data catalogs, and data sharing with third parties. While this architecture is vendor neutral I will also show you what tools we use at Sonra and what principles we follow to bring this architecture to life.
