The Evils of Data Debt

Join Cribl's Ed Bailey and Jackie McGuire as they discuss the harmful effects of data debt on observability and security teams. Data debt is a pervasive problem that increases costs and produces poor results across observability and security. Simply put, garbage in equals garbage out. Ed and Jackie will delve into what data debt is and how to solve it in the long term. They will explore the complex nature of observability and security data, which is highly volatile and requires a different approach from typical analytics use cases. To get the best results, data standards must be established with high-level buy-in from leadership. Additionally, teams must have access to a high-quality observability pipeline that allows them to manipulate data in real-time. It's also important to build a strong relationship with your GRC team, so you can track issues with standards and gain the right visibility in the enterprise. With the right strategies, data debt can be overcome, and Ed and Jackie will help you get started on the road to success.
