Data marts, warehouses, lakes, whatever the name, the pattern of consolidating data across an enterprise for comprehensive analytics is a familiar one. Every enterprise has many data sources, some operational, some analytics, some telemetry, and bringing them together has always been a challenge. Cleaning the data, curating for consistency, exploring, doing data science, building reports, monitoring, is another series of challenges in bringing a range of tools to bear on the data, thanks to diverse data formats and tooling. With Gen AI, the requirements (e.g., vector indexing for RAG) and potential value of the data have both gone up. And the pressure to ensure right use of the data, to comply to a broad range of regulations, to secure the data has never been higher. We believe the time has come to come together around open data standards to ensure that data is easy to consolidate and easy to plug into a wide variety of tools, all in a properly governed way. Josh and I describe the approach we are taking at Microsoft with Fabric and Purview. We are building on open Parquet-based updatable table formats such as Delta, Iceberg and Hudi, and interop across them with XTable. We are making it easy to consolidate data with mechanisms like mirroring and shortcuts. Ultimately, users should be able to use their tool of choice for a given task with the least friction.

Botcopy's migration to GCP pays off and Partner Directory/ Portal are coming soon. #CloudMigration Success: Botcopy is 100% on Google Cloud. ✅ About 90 days ago, we made a pivotal shift by migrating our entire product suite to Google Cloud, meeting the acceptance criteria for the Google Cloud Marketplace. Admittedly, this was a tough decision with our extensive product roadmap. We were skeptical about the impact and felt it was a bit of a risk. However, I'm excited to report that this transition was a resounding success! Google has maintained our operational standards at #100% efficiency. We are immensely proud and glad we took this leap. 🐸 Service Partner Directory: Coming Soon! Sneak peek below. We recognize the importance of collaboration, and I'm pleased to announce that our new Service Partner Directory is on the way! Working with CCAI service partners is crucial to us—it's clear we're better together. If you're a service agency eager to engage with Google CCAI, please reach out. We’d love to onboard you. For our existing partners, anticipate even more opportunities to collaborate soon. Ps. Rob Lubow I've been enjoying the Les Paul and included a little rif just for you in the video. www.Botcopy.com #GoogleCloud #TechNews #Innovation #Partnerships #BotcopyUpdates Special thanks to all the service partners that make this possible: Kate Thomas, Tony Safoian, Joyce Mullen, Joseph Stage, Michael Schmidt, Ted Battreall, Brad Jackson, Jim Kavanaugh, Bradford B Mitchell, Meaghan Sullivan, Chiru B, Tom R., Andrew Hamel, Peter Carlson, JD, John Suffern, Sandeep Sinha, Shawn Wood, Chad Johnson

My largest 5 stock holdings are Nvidia, Eli Lilly, ServiceNow, Amazon and Microsoft. Amazon just posted very solid earnings. I expect Amazon shares to trade north of 250 USD within 24 months. Amazon ads grew by 24 percent, AWS grew by 17 percent. Subscription revenues also grew north of 20 percent. Trivia: Amazon's AWS revenue over the last 12 months has been $94 billion. This is higher than the revenue of 466 companies in the S&P 500. See the chart from Charlie Bilello for a historic perspective on AWS.
