213 | Breaking Analysis | Predictions 2024 – Deciphering Gen AI’s effect on data, governance & skill gaps

With Sanjeev Mohan, Tony Baer, Carl Olofson, Dave Menninger and Doug Henschen

In the words of famous people like Nobel laureate Neils Bohr and baseball legend Yogi Berra, predictions are very difficult, especially if they’re about the future.

In this special Breaking Analysis we’re pleased to host our third annual data predictions power panel with some of our collaborators in theCUBE Collective and members of the data gang. With us today are five of the top industry analysts focused on data platforms. Sanjeev Mohan of Sanjmo, Tony Baer of dbInsight, IDC’s Carl Olofson, Dave Menninger who is with Ventana Research, now part of ISG and Doug Henschen with Constellation Research.

A Scan of the Top Analytics, BI, Data & ML Platforms

Before we get into it, let’s share some data from ETRs October survey of more than 1,700 IT decision makers.

This graphic shows Net Score or spending momentum on the vertical axis and the Overlap of these platforms within those 1,700 accounts, representing their pervasiveness within the data set. This data is specifically for the analytics, business intelligence, database/data warehouse and ML/AI sectors. We’ve chosen a subset of the companies in this group of sectors that are representative of leading vendors, many included in today’s discussion. That red line at 40% indicates highly elevated spending velocity on a platform.

A couple of quick points include: 1) the presence of Microsoft and AWS in these combined sectors is notable and well ahead of Google Cloud; 2) the momentum of OpenAI, at a Net Score of nearly 80%, is astoundingly impressive and its presence on the X axis represents about 7 times the account penetration of Anthropic, which you see on the left hand side of this chart just above Dataiku; 3) Snowflake and Databricks remain above the 40% mark with strong momentum and 4) you can see a number of companies that we’ll discuss directly and indirectly across this graphic in the basket of sectors…including MongoDB, SAP, IBM Watson…governance, metadata, pipeline and ETL tools like Informatica, Collibra, Alation, Alteryx, etc. BI platforms like Thoughtspot, Qlik, Tableau and Looker; and of course a number of database and data analytic platforms like Couchbase, Cloudera, SAS and notably Oracle and SAP.

This gives you a general quantitative sense of the relative position of these platforms in what is a multi-hundred billion dollar TAM.

Revisiting the 2023 Data Analysts’ Predictions

Let’s get started by looking back at our 2023 predictions and looking at how the analysts fared.

The graphic below shows all of the 2023 predictions for each analysts in one table with some commentary on evidence of whether the prediction was a direct hit (green), a glancing blow (yellow) or a miss (red). So a quick scan of the heat map shows you the data gang did pretty well – notwithstanding these were self-evaluated by each analyst.

Unified Metadata Becomes the Kingmaker & Data Products Rise

Let’s get into each of the 2023 predictions starting with Sanjeev Mohan.

Above we show Sanjeev’s predictions about unified metadata becoming the kingmaker and his expectation that data products would rise in popularity. Sanjeev cites as evidence, Microsoft Fabric, Databricks Unity Catalog and some other proof points. We further summarize Mohan’s predictions as follows:
