How the sixth data platform supports intelligent apps

theCUBE analysis + upcoming broadcasts [Getting ready for the sixth data platform]( In this episode of theCUBE's Analysis]( Dave Vellante delves into the concept of the “sixth data platform,” a new type of modern data platform to support the emergence of intelligent data apps. The discussion features George Gilbert, principal at TechAlpha Partners, and Ryan Blue, the co-creator and PMC chair of Apache Iceberg and the co-founder and CEO of Tabular Technologies, a universal open table store designed to connect with any computing layer, developed by the creators of Iceberg.   “I think that it is absolutely critical to have a plan around that metadata,” Blue said. “We don't really know how far we're going to go down that road. I think that today, there's a very good argument that access controls and certain governance operations need to move into a catalog and storage layer that is uniform across all of those different methods of access and compute providers.”   The rise of intelligent data applications   Vellante, Gilbert and Blue discuss the emergence of the intelligent data applications that necessitated the development of the sixth data platform to support them. This concept envisions a digital representation of businesses facilitated by software-based systems, akin to an "Uber for all." Digging into data from Enterprise Technologies Research, Vellante et al. outline the characteristics of those contributing to the sixth data platform, why they're growing mindshare and what questions are important for tech leaders to consider.   Follow the entire analysis.
