Developing Data-Driven Software – It’s a Little Different After All
In the lecture, the concept of data-driven software is first sharpened. Then the typical requirements for data-driven software systems will be discussed. These are illustrated with examples. From the requirements, it is derived how software processes for the development of data-driven software systems should look like. In the context of ML/DEV/OPS, it is discussed how the development of „machine learning“ components impacts the operation of data-driven systems.
