Dan Demers of Cinchy.com joins host Jeff Doolittle for a conversation about data collaboration and dataware. Dataware platforms leverage an operational data fabric to liberate data from apps and other silos and connect it together in real-time data networks. They explore a range of key topics, including zero-copy integration, encapsulation and information hiding, handling changes to data models over time, and latency and access issues. The discussion also explores dataware management and security concerns, as well as the concept of 'data plasticity' as an analogy to neuroplasticity, which is where the nervous system can respond to stimuli such as injuries by reorganizing its structure, functions, or connections.

How Dataware is being used to decouple data from applications and replace chaos and copies with control and collaboration. View the full video interview here. Dan DeMers, CEO and Co-Founder of Cinchy, is a business leader and pioneer in data solutions and the emerging dataware category. Before founding Cinchy, he spent over a decade at some of the largest financial institutions in the world, delivering mission-critical global systems and overseeing multi-million-dollar technology investments. During that time, he saw upfront how half of all IT resources get wasted on integration efforts.

The special guest of this episode is Dan DeMers, Co-Founder and CEO at Cinchy. He's also the president of the not-for-profit Data Collaboration Alliance. Prior to founding Cinchy, Dan worked in financial services in IT for some of the largest banks in the world. It was there where he met his current co-founder and saw firsthand how complicated building, maintaining, and supporting enterprise systems in complex organizations is. Listen in to learn more about how Cinchy is changing the future of data management. You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in... What is Dataware?

Dan shares his thoughts on why data-centric application design is the best way to deal with the challenges of applications and analytics needing the same data for different purposes - the current approach is to let the application schema evolve whenever and however necessary and the underlying data applications suffer. Dan's view is "share access to data, not copies." The interview ties loosely with previous interviews re schema/data contracts and data testing as Dan argues using a dataware approach will prevent the issues of an evolving application schema breaking data consumption downstream. It isn't all rosy as this will take a fair bit of work for an organization to move to this approach. Food for thought and the first of a series of interviews re DDD (domain-driven design) for data and data-centric application development.

The reason that so much time and energy is spent on data integration is because of how our applications are designed. By making the software be the owner of the data that it generates, we have to go through the trouble of extracting the information to then be used elsewhere. The team at Cinchy are working to bring about a new paradigm of software architecture that puts the data as the central element. In this episode Dan DeMers, Cinchy's CEO, explains how their concept of a "Dataware" platform eliminates the need for costly and error prone integration processes and the benefits that it can provide for transactional and analytical application design. This is a fascinating and unconventional approach to working with data, so definitely give this a listen to expand your thinking about how to build your systems.

How is a Data Fabric used to accelerate AI projects? As AI/ML technology continues to spring from the relative isolation of research labs into the real-world (aka AI operationalization) it finds itself entering a marketplace already awash with applications. A recent study on the state of the SaaS market reported that even small businesses now manage over 80 SaaS applications and in the enterprise sector this number can easily exceed 5,000 or more. To non-IT folks, these may not seem like a crazy numbers, but ask anyone who has built a new app or system and they will confirm the innovation tax that applications impose on development projects. In fact, the process of integrating data from pre-existing apps and systems now represents 40 percent of IT delivery budgets and can take months (or even years) to complete for any given project. So this is the environment that Canadian startups and public sector teams must navigate as they seek to deploy their AI ML technologies. But while the sheer cost and complexity of integration can be a huge barrier to market, new advances in data management technology have emerged that aim to make traditional integration a thing of the past. Tune in to this episode of the Ask AI podcast and learn how Dan DeMers, CEO and co-founder of Toronto-based Cinchy, has taken inspiration from the network-based design of the brain to develop Data Fabric platform technology that eliminates traditional integration, accelerates AI ML projects, and supports collaborative intelligence.

The way that we think about data today is kind of a byproduct of the way we architect our systems where data is subservient to an application, so today we kind of lose track of the fact that data actually comes from people and really does require people to collaborate.

A white church accidentally merges with a black church... and all Hell breaks loose. Pastor Gerald was supposed to pass the baton to his son-in-law Daniel, but on his last Sunday, the day of his retirement, there was a change of plans.
