All Rights Reserved Decisions made without facts are opinions ◦ What are the facts? Again and again and again – what are the facts? Shun wishful thinking, ignore divine revelation, forget what “the stars foretell,” avoid opinion, care not what the neighbors think, never mind the unguessable “verdict of history” – what are the facts, and to how many decimal places? You pilot always into an unknown future; facts are your single clue. Get the facts!” RH Turn your latent assets into liquid to realize their value - No longer latent but now liquid ◦ Data has to be on the move - It must be leveraged by the masses The business goal ◦ Actually deliver on the promise of transforming data into actionable information ◦ Predictive analytics improve forecasting ◦ Prescriptive analytics can guide business behaviour ◦ Geolocation analytics can improve resource utilization and inventory turns What are the results? - Delivering insights to executives yields direction - Delivering insights to line workers yields results

- 11. Michelangelo@Uber Confidential Content 11 Welcome my son to the machine… ©2017 SnapLogic, Inc. All Rights Reserved The problem ◦ “There were no systems in place to build reliable, uniform, and reproducible pipelines for creating and managing training and prediction data at scale.” The solution: Machine Learning as a Service ◦ ML-as-a-service platform that democratizes machine learning and makes scaling AI to meet the needs of business as easy as requesting a ride. Michelangelo consists of a mix of open source systems and components built in-house. The primary open sourced components used are HDFS, Spark, Samza, Cassandra, MLLib, XGBoost, and TensorFlow. Cost ◦ Two years ◦ $60 million Results ◦ A Wall Street Journal report claims SoftBank has been in touch with Uber with the apparent goal of buying a “multi-billion dollar stake” in the company. To date, Uber has raised close to $12 billion from investors, with its most recent valuation reportedly above $60 billion. July 25, 2017

All Rights Reserved The problem ◦ A large multinational corporation grew in part by acquisition ◦ Technology stacks and silos as far as the eye can see ◦ They had one or more of every kind of technology ◦ They had hundreds of data warehouses and data marts The cost ◦ Implementing any new business processes were blindingly expensive, took too long and were not what the user was expecting or needed The solution ◦ Simplify, standardized, consolidate and adopt a cloud strategy ◦ Insert a Data Lake into the data lifecycle ◦ Adopt a Citizen Integrator model where ever possible The business result ◦ The combination of migration from a perpetual software license model to SaaS and the reduced labor costs of the Citizen Integrator model resulted in savings in the millions

- 22. Observations from the field Confidential Content 22 Some observations and a few of Rich’s rules of technology ©2017 SnapLogic, Inc. All Rights Reserved Technology is a tool, use the right one for the job ◦ It amazes me how some engineers have almost religious beliefs in their favorite technology - If the only tool you have is a hammer… Software evolves like a funnel ◦ Early releases have limitations that are fixed with later releases We work in an industry where change is constant ◦ Absolute truths can change every 5-10 years ◦ The rate of change can make you old, or keep you young. As the Iron Giant said, choose! Different technologies require different approaches and techniques ◦ I don’t code Scala like C or Cobol ◦ “A mind is like a parachute it only functions when it is open” Thomas Dewar The adoption curve entails risk… and costs ◦ There is a reason we call it the bleeding edge Open source is not free ◦ The money you save on license cost, you will spend on additional labor, plus 25%
