Data management systems have gone through significant changes in the last 10 years, driven by user demands, novel techniques and improvements in hardware. These have far-reaching implications on how systems are deployed and used in practice.
In this talk, I will focus on three key aspects of modern data management systems: scalability, mutability, and interface. I will share my personal experiences, and will bring several examples from the database and data science worlds.
