Exasol Semantic Layer by the example of OTTO
Mainstage
The semantic layer revolutionizes how companies interact with their data by transforming complex data queries into simple commands, breaking down technical barriers, and enabling true data democratization. It acts as a data translator, creating a unified data truth for everyone from BI enthusiasts to Excel users and database professionals. Data modeling and querying through conventional SQL code are simplified, allowing for the integration of data outside the model. Using the example of the project at OTTO, we demonstrate how the centralized, high-performance, and flexible architecture ensures improved data quality, efficiency gains, and cost savings. The ESL as streamlined OTTO’s data operations by improving query efficiency and reducing complexity. It dynamically generates tailored queries, minimizing reliance on complex joins and redundant SQL statements, making data access faster (cutting query times from minutes to seconds) and reducing IT workload.

Future-proofing your Database: Implementing flexible Extensions with Exasol UDFs
Breakout Room
The scalability of a database is mostly defined by data growth and the increase in the number of users. The ability to scale across application scenarios is also an important criterion. In this regard, the extensibility of a database’s functionality is an indispensable requirement. A powerful framework is needed to successfully implement future and currently unimaginable application scenarios.
Exasol provides a container-based implementation for the flexible extension of the Exasol database’s functionality with the User-Defined Functions (UDF) framework. Learn and discuss in the breakout session how to create and use individual language environments for Python and user-defined functions.
