Intriguing that the CEO of DBT declares MDS ("modern data stack") to be a meaningless term (i.e. no longer useful). Maybe a good demarcation that we are entering the post-modern phase of cloud tech generally? Cloud still there, but not the only option.
I look forward to this happening with GenAI -- the tools we come up with will be pretty cool in the long run. I hope we can find ways around platform enshittification because that really sucks. Similar for blockchain tech.
I see a common thread in these techs too -- the same type of LinkedIn influencers shop these during their hype phases. Ultimately, useful technology and best practices come out of it!
- actionfromafar 3y agoWell put! Nothing's modern anymore, the tech cycles are closing in on one another so much the old one hasn't gone out of phase until it's overcome by not one but several new ones. In a nice touch of self-refentiality, your message itself is very post-modern.
- tomrod 3y agoI hadn't considered that. Thanks for pointing that out to me :)
