Session: From Dashboards to Decisions: Building Real-Time, Agent-Driven Analytics Platforms
Most organizations already have dashboards, reports, and models. The real challenge is turning data into systems that actively influence decisions as things happen. This session shares how modern data platforms are evolving from passive analytics into real-time, agent-driven systems that support operational and strategic decision-making.
The talk walks through practical architecture patterns for combining streaming data, governed metrics, and AI-assisted logic to create platforms that can detect signals, generate recommendations, and trigger actions. Rather than focusing on tools, the session emphasizes design choices, trade-offs, and lessons learned from building analytics systems used by real teams under real constraints. Attendees will leave with clear patterns they can apply to move beyond dashboards and toward analytics that drive outcomes.
