What level of data maturity do you typically encounter across your client base and what tends to hold this back?
With the explosion of data sources and the complexity of modern data environments, organizations are struggling to keep up with the sheer volume of data they need to process and analyze. To address this challenge, we are seeing a growing demand for automated machine learning platforms that can handle large-scale data processing and analysis. Our clients are also looking for solutions that can automate the entire data science process, from data preparation to model deployment, to enable faster and more efficient decision-making.
What trends are you seeing in terms of the data and analytics resources your clients are demanding from you?
