We Love Ugly Data! The Deep Analysis Podcast - Episode 6 July 23

The sixth episode of the second season of the Deep Analysis podcasts went live this week; the 4 Waves of IDP, how AI products are creating a lot of head scratching on data residency, and why can't we call everything "content"?
The sixth episode of the podcast we now know and love as “We Love Ugly Data!” is out; available everywhere you get your podcasts from and, of course, in video form via YouTube (which we’ve embedded below). As ever, it’s 3 topics in 30 minutes; Matt and Alan are in the chairs this time; skip to the topics you’re most interested in, or maybe sit back and enjoy the whole thing? Come on, it’s only 30 minutes, and you deserve a break. Show notes are, as ever, included below.

In this episode;

Topic 1: 5 (more) Vendors to Watch

We’ve recently added 5 more Vendor Vignettes to the website for subscribers to digest, but for everyone else here, Alan and Matt do a rapid-fire summary of each (you can read it more leisurely here).

Topic 2: Here comes trouble?

Alan recently wrote a blog post (the device that we until recently called an “analyst note”, before we reverted to blog for the sake of simplicity) called “Industry Consolidation is Coming.” Here he and Matt discuss some of the financial and operational challenges that start-ups are facing and 4 important lessons that they should heed.

Topic 3: AI Citizen Developers

Another topic concerns a recent blog post, this time written by Matt, about how Generative AI, vendor LLMs, and No Code. Our pair discusses why vendors would be focusing their energy here, what it means for Low and No Code platforms and….. where are all the citizen developers?
