Old habits can quickly turn your data infrastructure into chaos.   Businesses often find they are relying on fragile, point-to-point connections when looking to expand and integrate new technological innovations. These brittle connections put a strain on your data infrastructure, and any changes in the system can cause massive issues downstream.   Our Chief Product Officer, Shaun Clowes, and CEO, Jay Kreps, spoke on this issue at #KafkaSummit Bangalore and explained how data streaming can resolve these challenges – check out this article from Frontier Enterprise if you missed it!   https://lnkd.in/gunFa9Re   #datastreaming #Kafka #datamanagement

One of the biggest challenges is making enterprise data truly work for generative AI. It's not just about having more data; it's about making that data smarter and more relevant. That's where the NetApp GenAI Toolkit comes in. While some might promise "90% efficiency," the real-world results show impressive improvements in data relevance and accuracy, often between 50-75%. The NetApp GenAI Toolkit is now available for preview. Seamlessly integrating with Google Cloud’s Vertex AI and also working with Azure, it offers automated deployment and powerful RAG operations. This means you can accelerate innovation and drive meaningful business impact with smarter AI applications. Curious to learn more?
