The enterprise software landscape is at a pivotal turning point. For decades, organizations have been trapped in a cycle of siloed applications—first in on-premise data centers, and then repackaged as cloud SaaS solutions. While infrastructure has become more flexible, scalable, and cost-effective, the applications running on top remain frustratingly rigid, expensive, and disconnected.

In this session, Mike Palmer (CEO of Sigma) and Carter Busse (CIO of Workato) discuss the shift from "best-of-breed" point solutions to an "end-to-end" approach powered by data apps. They'll explore:

  • Why traditional SaaS applications force organizations to adapt their workflows to software limitations rather than the other way around
  • How the centralization of data in cloud warehouses creates the foundation for building custom, integrated workflows
  • Real-world examples of organizations replacing expensive, disconnected tools with purpose-built data apps
  • The future of enterprise software, including predictions on how AI will reshape application development and data accessibility
  • Practical strategies for starting your data apps journey without creating new technology sprawl

Learn how forward-thinking organizations are using data apps to create workflows that better match their business needs, increase decision-making velocity, boost accuracy, and dramatically reduce software costs—all while maintaining enterprise-grade governance and security.
