Higher education data teams are under ever-increasing pressure to support institutional reporting, student success analytics, modernization and AI-readiness. All while working with lean teams and complex systems such as Banner, Workday, SQL Server, Oracle and cloud platforms.
In this first Industry Blueprint session, WhereScape Solutions Architect Alexander Perry will show how higher education teams can approach a realistic data architecture challenge with more structure, automation and confidence.
