A Chief Data Officer (CDO) from one of your clients has been
discussing data fabric solutions with analysts and IBM
competitors. They have observed how different vendors
describe a data fabric in ways that reflect the limitations of their
offerings. To counter the competitive messaging that the CDO

fabric concept?

Integrated data quality, master data, data preparation,

data integration, and data governance tools, which feeds
data into a fully automated AI model creation tool.

A data lake framework that centralizes all of an

organization's data and provides self-service access to this
data through a variety of multi-disciplinary tools.

A data integration platform that delivers data to

warehouses and data lakes on the cloud of your choice,
where it's cataloged and ready for users to explore.
