MLOps community meetup #45! Last Wednesday, we talked to Joe Reis, CEO/Co-Founder of Ternary Data.
// Abstract:
The fact is that most companies are barely doing BI, let alone AI. Joe discussed ways for companies to build a solid data foundation so they can succeed with machine learning. This meetup covers the continuum from cloud data warehousing to MLOps.
// Bio:
Joe is a Data Engineer and Architect, Recovering Data Scientist, 20 years in the data game.  Joe enjoys helping companies make sense of their culture, processes, and architecture so they can go from dreaming to doing. He’s certified in both AWS and Google Cloud. When not working, you can find Joe at one of the two groups he co-founded—The Utah Data Engineering Meetup and SLC Python. Joe also sits on the board of Utah Python, a non-profit dedicated to advocating Python in Utah.
