07 - Upsolver (Qlik) - Roy Hasson

In this episode, we had the pleasure of diving deep into the realms of Iceberg and general data trends with one of the most insightful voices in data today - Roy Hasson. As an AWS veteran who helped develop many of the cloud's core services we rely on, Roy has spent the past 3+ years leading product for Upsolver, which was recently acquired by Qlik, a leading data analytics and business intelligence software company.

If Roy's name rings a bell, you already know this episode is worth your time. If not, tune in to get his perspective on what's genuinely transformative in data today versus what's just hype. Either way, you're encouraged to follow him at https://www.linkedin.com/in/royhasson/ for more of his expert insights.
