“A data fabric integrates various structured and unstructured data sources to provide a unified view and access across your enterprise to accelerate business insights,” says Armon Petrossian, CEO and co-founder of Coalesce. “When implementing a data fabric, it’s important to consider scalability to handle large data volumes, flexibility for different data types, and robust security measures.”
