In this article, we’ll present seven of the key best practices you should adhere to when designing, implementing and operationalizing your data lake. These are things that will mostly be automatically implemented if you’re using Upsolver, but if you’re building your data lake ‘manually’ you’ll need to ensure they’re done correctly if you want to get the most value out of your data lake architecture.
While we will mostly be referring to Amazon S3 as the storage layer, these best practices would also apply for a data lake built on a different cloud or using Hadoop on-premise.

Where Primark has strayed furthest from the fashion pack is in its refusal to sell anything online, which it sees as unfeasible at its price points. That has kept margins plump as the company avoided a wodge of spending on developing apps and fulfilment capabilities. The lack of an online presence meant that Primark lost up to 100% of sales as the pandemic shut shops around the world. Extended closures, especially in Britain, home to about half of its 380 outlets, cost it £3bn in sales and perhaps £1bn in profit.

And the most powerful disruptive marketplaces are often those that simultaneously connect nonconsumers with nonproducers.

Google Shopping has gone through quite the metamorphosis over the years. Back in 2002, it was called Froogle upon launching - a pun on the term frugal - and was later renamed to Google Product Search in 2007. Then, it was renamed yet again to Google Shopping in 2012 and went through several iterations even within itself relating to how information was presented to users.
