What I Learned From The Open Source Data Stack Conference 2021

I attended the Open-Source Data Stack Conference in late September 2021, the first-ever conference dedicated to building a modern data stack using open-source data solutions. The emergence of the modern data stack has seen a rapid spike in the number of data tools an organization can use to drive better decision-making. Open-source software helps you control the end-to-end flow of customer data throughout your organization to guarantee data auditability, allow data governance, support consumer data privacy, and enable productive engineer workflows.

In this blog recap, I will dissect content from the conference’s session talks, each being a building block of the open-source data stack to demonstrate how teams can build a data stack that reflects their needs.
