Webinar: Database Systems Modernization for Data-Driven Architectures by DZone Events

Database Systems Modernization for Data-Driven Architectures

About

Databases in 2024 are about their ability to scale and perform in modern data architectures. We aren’t just focused on distributed, cloud-centric data environments anymore; now, we are also fixated on databases being built and managed in a way that allows them to be used optimally in advanced applications. The modernization of database architectures allows for developers and organizations to be more flexible with their data. With advancements in automation and the proliferation of artificial intelligence, the way data capabilities and databases are built, managed, and scaled has evolved at an exponential rate.

Join DZone and a panel of experts as we discuss database adoption trends, real-time streaming architectures, the role AI plays within database systems, database management strategies, and more.
