Mercedes Benz R&D – The Best or Nothing Data Platform
The Data Platform team at Mercedes-Benz Research & Development is in the critical path of the company’s road to building the world’s best EV and autonomous vehicles. The MBOS Data Platform team will present how Dremio became instrumental to this effort, as part of a “one-click deployment” approach that allows internal teams to leverage infrastructure-as-code pipelines with best practices and policy enforcements in place to create optimized ingestion, data lake persistence, query optimization, data analytics, BI, and visualization capabilities. All of that done in a way that securely democratizes data access across multiple teams and sources, in a unified platform with multi-cloud capabilities.
