Data Orchestration
Data orchestration is a concept that has been growing in popularity in the past five years amid the rise of DataOps, which describes more agile approaches to data integration and data management. Data orchestration provides the capabilities to automate and accelerate the flow of data from multiple sources to support operational and analytics initiatives and drive business value.
At the highest level of abstraction, data orchestration covers three key capabilities: collection (including data ingestion, preparation and cleansing); transformation (additionally including integration and enrichment); and activation (making the results available to compute engines, analytics and data science tools, or operational applications).
