The Modern AI and Data Platform The Why the What and the How

Thank you for your interest in this book and our work. “The Modern AI and Data Platform” brings together proven practices for building and running systems that create lasting value from data - across technology, organization, and culture.

The book is divided into three parts. Why explores how data creates value, why AI belongs at the core, and discusses key success factors. What defines the architecture of a modern AI and data platform - its core capabilities, layers, and principles covering integration, modelling, semantics, interoperability, security, and cost. How translates these principles into practice, with concrete examples of building data products, automating pipelines, operating AI models, and ensuring reliability, compliance, and continuous improvement.

The approach is deliberately opinionated, grounded in insights from over a thousand real-world projects. Our goal is not to prescribe, but to share patterns that work - practical guidance for those shaping data-driven organizations.

We wish you success in creating teams and systems where AI and data truly deliver impact.
