data sovereignty

Maintaining ownership and direct control of your data. Preserving and defending data integrity and security by limiting access.

They lost their data sovereignty by uploading it to the cloud.

data lakehouse

It's like a data lake and a house. With AI pushing all the limits, data lakes are not enough. You need a data lakehouse to keep all your ones and zeros together and LLM'd to the max.

We tried everything to get our chatbot to get smarter, but the data lakehouse provided the connectivity and bandwidth we needed.

Dance Data

Data to make you dance.

This music is pure dance data

Little Data Thinking

Derogatory. A paradigm that some closed minded programmers adopt; thinking that they can only use or have access to data that they have in the immediate environment, memory or localized systems.

Tom, We do have other information. Lets move from little data thinking; we have access to the outdoor temperature of many other sources in the same zip code than just the one in the car.

Thick data

Thick data is qualitative information that provides insights into the everyday emotional lives of consumers. It goes beyond big data to explain why consumers have certain preferences, the reasons they behave the way they do, why certain trends stick and so on.

Data scientist 1: dayum son, dat data thicc tho! I'd run regressions on dat all night.

Data scientist 2: I actually did. My laptop has slow processing speed. It takes several hours to process thick data.

data eater

Software that uses large amounts of data, even while running in the background.

That app is a major data eater.

Beholder data

Data that is created by you but stored and owned by a company. The company displays it to you but you do not have any rights to it. Typically the company says it's not used by anyone else but you and you have the rights to it but in practice the data is really hard to download or use by anything else than the company's own products.

- Hey, the data is harmless let Google have it. I mean what can they do with it?
- What if you want to use it to something else, like controlling your Samsung device?
- I can just download it, no problem, right?
- Nah man, its beholder data only.
