4:40 PM - 5:10 PM -  Introducing KNIME Analytics Platform: a tool for data analysts, data engineers, and data scientists by Marco Mosciarello, Account Manager, KNIME 

KNIME Analytics Platform is a tool for data analysts, data engineers, and data scientists. Data analysts build data apps to visualize their data in complex interactive dashboards.  Data engineers blend and transform their data, via ETL or ELT, to build Data WareHouses or data lakes. Data scientists train and deploy a large variety of Machine Learning models, including AI based models.

By the way, you do not need any programming experience to use KNIME Analytics Platform, since it is a low code tool. You also do not need to buy a license, since it is free and open-source.

In this presentation, we will give you a quick tour of how KNIME Analytics Platform can be used by data analysts, data engineers, and data scientists.
