No matter where you are on your data streaming journey, keep in mind that technology alone is no silver bullet. Real success—moving up the maturity curve—requires both the right tools and meaningful cultural and organizational changes.
Here’s a checklist to ensure a holistic foundation that drives the desired business benefits with data streaming:
It is impossible to successfully implement and ramp-up adoption of any new technology, without the full buy-in of key stakeholders who care enough to drive change.
This includes budget, desired expertise, and change management strategies to drive increased adoption.
Define your current situation and target state. Set the North Star to achieving an enterprise-wide data streaming platform and chart a clear course with manageable milestones.
The business case should have well-defined key success metrics, such as increasing revenue, decreasing costs, and managing risk. Continue to measure and report progress, while identifying new opportunities along the way.
Highlight real-world examples of where your data streaming initiatives are delivering value and making a difference to the business.
