Episode 3: How telematics leader Geotab powers innovation with BigQuery

In this episode, Bruno revisits Geotab, a software-as-a-service-company that specializes in connective commercial vehicles and fleet management, to dig deeper into their data journey. Bob Bradley, Associate VP of Data and Solutions, shares the company's staggering growth (from 400,000 vehicles to well over 2 million in just 5 years) and how Google Cloud has helped them to keep up and stay ahead of the competition.

Getting Started with Machine Learning

In recent years, Ethical AI has become an area of increased importance to organisations. Advances in the development and application of Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL) algorithms, require greater care to ensure that the ethics embedded in previous rule-based systems are not lost. This has led to Ethical AI being an increasingly popular search term and the subject of many industry analyst reports and papers.

How to break down silos and free your data

As a modern, data-driven organization, you are likely pulling data from a multitude of diverse sources. There’s consumer data from marketing programs, CRM, and point of sale systems, plus financial data from accounting software and banking services. Finally, there is product data from user logs and web applications. With so much data pouring in every day, it feels like you should have everything you need to answer any question that could arise. And yet, so many times you don’t.

Announcing the GA of Cloudera DataFlow for the Public Cloud on Microsoft Azure

After the launch of Cloudera DataFlow for the Public Cloud (CDF-PC) on AWS a few months ago, we are thrilled to announce that CDF-PC is now generally available on Microsoft Azure, allowing NiFi users on Azure to run their data flows in a cloud-native runtime. With CDF-PC, NiFi users can import their existing data flows into a central catalog from where they can be deployed to a Kubernetes based runtime through a simple flow deployment wizard or with a single CLI command.

How Data & AI Can Help Make Utility Line Inspections Safer

Electricity is fundamental to our society. As climate change becomes more severe and demand for clean energy increases, the future is the electrification of everything and along with it, the need for reliable energy. The U.S. infrastructure spans over a vast 200,000 miles and inspecting all of it is a time-consuming and high-risk process that often calls for hanging from helicopters or climbing tall towers. It is inefficient, costly, and dangerous.

The 7 Ts of product-Led Transformation

Transformation is a word that isn’t commonly favored by the product community. Why? Because transformation programs rarely allow product teams to autonomously decide how they will achieve their mission. Transformation programs also incur significant costs. According to CIO Magazine, global spending on digital transformation technologies and services was US$1.3 trillion in 2020, of which 70% of that spend is wasted. That is approximately $900 billion.

Unified data and ML: 5 ways to use BigQuery and Vertex AI together

Are you storing your data in BigQuery and interested in using that data to train and deploy models? Or maybe you’re already building ML workflows in Vertex AI, but looking to do more complex analysis of your model’s predictions? In this post, we’ll show you five integrations between Vertex AI and BigQuery, so you can store and ingest your data; build, train and deploy your ML models; and manage models at scale with built-in MLOps, all within one platform. Let’s get started!
