…a specific cloud provider (AWS, GCP, MS Azure, etc.) and prefer to store their data in data lakes within those providers. Storing data within a data lake is also preferable because it is much cheaper than storing it in a more structured data warehouse. This allows for more affordable storage of data so that personas can load only the data they need for analytics purposes into a more expensive data warehouse. Data finally goes where it needs to go To…
