The Way Ahead - Data theme

Our final week of research saw us meet with Amazon and learn more about AWS and the many platforms & tools available to Collect, Orchestrate, Store & Analyse data. Wow!  Read more about Harmonise, Search and Analyse Loosely Coupled Data Sets on AWS.  See also the blog about Just Giving's move to AWS.

And then a call to find out more about NICVA's Detail Data project, funded by the Big Lottery and with 4 main strands:

• Data portal (built on DKAN) - a data catalogue providing access to datasets for Northern Ireland
• Data journalism - data based storytelling & investigative journalism
• Data training - a range of training & development opportunities (often run by ODI trainers)
• More data - open data for public good

NICVA are also working in partnership with the ICO to run Data Fridays - a series of seminars looking at a range of data related topics.
