You might expect IT professionals to be the most aware of pandemic-driven data demands, but just 53% in this survey from Red Hat and Starburst said data access became more critical last year. They did feel a need for speed: respondents said 60% of decisions require data access in under one minute and 39% require access in under one second. No mention here of no-code but lots on how hard it is to build data pipelines, which doesn’t seem like a job for amateurs.
Oklahoma’s House of Representatives has passed a data privacy bill in an 85-11 vote. The legislation, which now moves to the state Senate, overcame industry opposition and adds pressure on the federal government to enact privacy legislation as Oklahoma joins California, Virginia, New York, Washington and other states. The four pillars of the new legislation are: right to know, right to delete, right to opt-out of collection, and an opt-in requirement beginning in 2023. Private right of action didn't make it through committee.
