A "Simple Stack" Data Architecture - Explained
Mar 12, 2025What do you think of first when you hear the phrase "Modern Data"?
My guess is you first think about the tools.
But as we both know, tools by themselves aren't really the solution unless you have them within a bigger picture.
This is where I think the term Modern Data actually over complicates things.
Because the actual strategy that most teams need is still very simple.
So in this video I want to give you some real examples of how you can pair common modern tools within a Simple Stack Framework.
The goal is to clarify how you could go about building something similar at your own company.
Or to help you feel more prepared to contribute on a variety of different Stacks without feeling lost.
Enjoy.
