Attendees of AIRSIDE LIVE will hear firsthand from industry and technology leaders on the impediments and achievements they've experienced as they continue to navigate the ever-changing data-driven landscape. The conference will explore how organizations can align the overlapping and sometimes competing priorities of:

• Data Management - DataOps, data lifecycle management, and managing cloud, multi-cloud and hybrid environments.
• Data Security - Data discovery, identity access control to data, and gaining full visibility into application and data access.
• Data Privacy and Data Governance - Ever-evolving compliance regulations, data governance, and building data privacy as a feature, and more.

"To become a data-driven organization, companies must build a solid foundation that aligns big data infrastructure with data security and data governance requirements, allowing teams to focus on innovation instead of reacting to data security challenges and regulatory issues," said Nick Halsey, Okera CEO. "AIRSIDE LIVE is a fantastic opportunity to learn from leading data management innovators and practitioners. These speakers understand the real-world challenges of dealing with data, and many have successfully helped their organizations use data more effectively to power digital transformations and reinvent business processes – without sacrificing security and good governance."

AIRSIDE LIVE will feature keynotes, industry-led panels, technical sessions and real-world case studies on the most pressing topics surrounding the big data industry including the battle between data agility, security and privacy, building a framework for future data success, creating a culture of data ethics, zero trust, and the evolution of advertising and privacy, among other relevant themes.
