But is it right for your company? This book is based on discussions with practitioners and executives from more than a hundred organizations, ranging from data-driven companies such as Google, LinkedIn, and Facebook, to governments and traditional corporate enterprises. You’ll learn what a data lake is, why enterprises need one, and how to build one successfully with the best practices in this book. Alex Gorelik, CTO and founder of Waterline Data, explains why old systems and processes can no longer support data needs in the enterprise. Then, in a collection of essays about data lake implementation, you’ll examine data lake initiatives, analytic projects, experiences, and best practices from data experts working in various industries. Get a succinct introduction to data warehousing, big data, and data science Learn various paths enterprises take to build a data lake Explore how to build a self-service model and best practices for providing analysts access to the data Use different methods for architecting your data lake Discover ways to implement a data lake from experts in different industries Review: Best practices for data lakes - This is a great read for anyone either planning on building a data lake for the first time or struggling to derive value from a data lake that’s already been implemented. The author provides an overview of the benefits of a data lake (in addition to relevant terminology) but then wastes no time discussing all that must go into the planning, implementation and management phases to ensure your data lake is a success. He spends a great deal of time talking about self-service business intelligence, which is the Holy Grail for any enterprise that wants to more effectively compete as a data-driven organization. Alex is truly a data visionary, and the book clearly benefits from his impressive background. But what I really liked was that he also tapped other industry experts (with their own impressive backgrounds) to offer up their various views and experience. What the reader walks away with is a compendium of best practices that will take your understanding of data lakes to the next level. Review: A Must Read in Big Data and Data Science - Bravo! This book was an excellent read. The author has a very simple and easy to understand style, which means this book can be read by just about anyone at any level. In addition to introducing the reader to data warehousing, big data and data science, the book provides all the various options enterprises can choose from to build the data lake that’s right for their business. Most laudable: no matter how deep Gorelik dives into this highly technical world, he always maps it back to the ultimate goal—to render data usable to just about any user regardless of their technical acumen. This is what the democratization of data in the enterprise is all about, and I commend Mr. Gorelik for not losing sight of this. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,115,816 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #317 in Data Modeling & Design (Books) #359 in Data Mining (Books) #541 in Data Processing | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 91 Reviews | ## Images ![The Enterprise Big Data Lake: Delivering the Promise of Big Data and Data Science - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81b5Gqt04FL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best practices for data lakes *by R***E on April 14, 2019* This is a great read for anyone either planning on building a data lake for the first time or struggling to derive value from a data lake that’s already been implemented.

This book does just that. It puts the many technical bricks and otherwise organizational and managerial challenges in context, all while tying it all to real-world implementation examples. For my consulting gigs, where I do have to offer solutions dor data lake governance, the information in this book proved to be so useful ! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/124355003-the-enterprise-big-data-lake-delivering-the-promise-of-big](https://www.desertcart.us/products/124355003-the-enterprise-big-data-lake-delivering-the-promise-of-big) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-07-09*
