Report on Data Fabric Design Discusses Data Automation and Integration

A Gartner report introduces data fabric design, its components, and how artificial intelligence powers data fabrics. It also discusses how automating data processing and integration can save time and allow users to draw important conclusions from their data.

Senior Director of Research at Gartner Ehtisham Zaidi remarks, “Every data and analytics leader’s goal is to reach decisions, actions, and output faster. Automation is inevitable to achieve this. In a recent Gartner survey, 50% of data and analytics leaders want to entirely automate data integration, a third want to automate data preparation and cleansing, and about one-third of those surveyed also want to completely automate data ingestion. Informing and automating data integration, ingestion, and preparation, is exactly the promise of the data fabric.” Download the report here.
