​Building a data platform on cloud-native environments comes with technical and operational challenges. From designing ingestion pipelines to implementing CI/CD workflows, teams need to make the right architectural choices to ensure scalability, efficiency, and maintainability.

​In this webinar, Chaim Turkel and Haggai Philip Zagury from Tikal will walk through practical strategies for deploying and managing data platforms. Learn how to streamline infrastructure setup, optimize data processing, and handle security and scaling considerations across AWS, GCP, and Azure.

​On the Agenda:

​17:00 - 17:45 | Architecting Data Platforms for the Cloud Native Era: Practical Considerations and Best Practices | Haggai Philip Zagury, DevOps Architect, Group & Tech Lead at Tikal

​Designing a data platform for a cloud-native environment requires a balance between performance, cost, and flexibility. The right decisions at the architecture level can improve efficiency and prevent common pitfalls.

​This session will explore key considerations in architecting cloud-native data platforms. Haggai will discuss how to choose the right storage solutions for different data types and access patterns, ensuring optimal performance and cost-efficiency. He will examine the interfaces needed for data ingestion, processing, and consumption, and how to structure them effectively.

​A major focus of the talk will be on leveraging Kubernetes and serverless computing to dynamically scale resources based on demand. The discussion will also cover security challenges, including data integrity, identity management, and Role-Based Access Control (RBAC). Finally, Haggai will address strategies for managing hybrid and multi-cloud deployments, navigating the nuances of public and private cloud environments, and implementing tiered storage solutions.

​17:45 - 18:30 | From Zero to Data Platform: Deploying Scalable Infrastructure in Cloud Native Environments | Chaim Turkel, Group Lead, Data & LLM Architect at Tikal

​Setting up a data platform often requires significant time and effort before any real data work can begin. What if this process could be simplified?

​This session will focus on accelerating infrastructure deployment using the Cloud Native Environment (CNE) platform. Chaim will demonstrate how to set up an ingestion pipeline with Airbyte, store data efficiently in a data lake or warehouse, and integrate a DBT pipeline with CI/CD best practices.

​By the end of this talk, you’ll have a clear understanding of how to build a well-structured data platform that minimizes setup time and improves long-term maintainability.
