Gartner – Top Trends in Data & Analytics for 2021: XOps

Gartner identified XOps (DataOps, ModelOps, DevOps) as one of the top trends in data and analytics for 2021.  Below we provide additional suggestions for further reading based on Gartner’s recommendations.

What is XOps? 

Gartner: “The multiplication of Ops disciplines stemming out of DevOps best practices has caused significant confusion in the marketplace. Yet, their reconciliation can bring significant advantages to organizations that are able to harmonize those disciplines.”

Opportunity

Gartner: Most analytics and AI projects fail because operationalization is only addressed as an afterthought. The top barrier to scaling analytics and AI implementations is complexity around integrating the solution with existing enterprise applications and infrastructure.”
