Data processing has become a critical capability in modern analytics. Users expect to be able to manipulate data models and transform data to meet their processing and visualization needs. In this session, we will explore how various utilities are tackling this self-service challenge.

• What tools are available for your analysts for the transformation and modeling of data?
• Is there a set of frameworks or standard practices in place?
• How do you track where the data has gone (lineage of source and target storage locations)?
• Do users have the ability to store and schedule data routines?
• Do analysts have the ability to share routines and/or build off of others' routines (collaboration/sharing)?
• Are you concerned about business process sprawl or technical debt?

Facilitator: Derin Bluhm, Chief Technology Officer – Grant County PUD

Presenters/Panelists:

• Jason Pegg, Domain Architect, Data Delivery & Integrations Team Lead – Avista
• Kaleb Thompson, Supervisor, Enterprise Analytics – ONE Gas
