Data lakes are centralized repositories that can store all structured and unstructured data at any desired scale. Data can be stored as-is, without first structuring it, and different types of analytics can be run on it, from dashboards and visualizations to big data processing, real-time analytics, and machine learning to improve decision making. The power of the data lake lies in the fact that it often is a cost-effective way to store data.

One of the principles of the Agile Manifesto reads: “Simplicity – the art of maximizing the amount of work not done – is essential.” Okay. What does that mean? Does it mean we should avoid doing our work to the extent possible? Well, not exactly. Consistency Between Lean and Agile Principles. Without coming at the question from that angle (as far as I know), the authors of the Manifesto arrived at an idea from Lean Thinking – the idea of reducing process waste.

Listen to Understand, not to Answer. “Most people do not listen with the intent to understand; they listen with the intent to reply,” wrote Steve Covey in his book The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People. It’s true: We often listen with a specific goal in mind, with the intention to reply, to share our perspective, or to convince the other person. As a consequence, we don’t pay full attention to what the other person is saying or filter what is being said; we only hear what supports our view.

In organizations that operate without a data warehouse or separate analytical database for reporting, the only source of the latest and up-to-date data may be in the live production database. When querying a production database, optimization is key. An inefficient query may pose a burden on the production database’s resources, and cause slow performance or loss of service for other users if the query contains errors.

Getting stakeholder buy-in for user research can be like talking to a brick wall, except the brick wall isn’t just ignoring you, it’s telling your colleagues you don’t know what you’re talking about, sends texts from their phone while you’re trying to explain something, accuses you of inventing the term “UX” and is somehow in charge of how much money you have on a daily basis.

To become Agile, your organization needs a way to become an ecosystem where Agile operating models can even work in the first place. The hypothesis amongst many practitioners is,” If I implement Scrum, I will get the Agility on the other side of it.” Usually, it doesn’t happen that fast or easy. It took time and effort to get this way, so it’s going to take time and effort to change. .

What Product Roadmaps Are (in a Nutshell). To start with, let’s briefly recap what a product roadmap is. I view a roadmap as a high-level plan that states specific benefits a product should provide over a certain timeframe, which may range from six to 12 months. I find it helpful to use the product roadmap so that it connects the overall product strategy with the product backlog, as shown in the picture below.

According to a Federal Bank report, more than $600 billion of household debt in the U.S. is delinquent as of June 30th, 2017. Out of which, $400 billion is delinquent for more than 90 days. This shows the need to rectify this issue before it becomes a crisis. A crisis that not only poses a serious threat to consumers, as debt accumulates interest, but may also cause trouble for businesses, as there is a chance that it may eat into their revenues.
