DESCRIPTION:Click for Latest Location Information: http://edw2014.dataversity.net/sessionPop.cfm?confid=79&proposalid=5851\nSince 2011, Neil Hepburn has been giving talks on the history of analytics and databases to 3rd and 4th year university students across numerous universities in Ontario, Canada.\nThe main reason for giving these talks is to learn and teach about the divide that exists between "the business" and IT, as well as the natural tension that exists between data architects and software architects.  Through researching history, presenting to students, and conducting frank discussions with computer science and business students, professors, and department chairs, Neil has gained valuable insights into the sources of these tensions.\nIn this talk, Neil will discuss his experiences and findings, and will offer a prescription that the academic and data management community can follow to better prepare students and new hires for life in the modern enterprise.
