AI disrupting analytics and data workflows

Artificial Intelligence is reshaping the entire data lifecycle - from engineering and pipelines, to analytics, visualization, and business intelligence. Large Language Models (LLMs) are at the center of this shift, offering new possibilities while creating uncertainty about established practices.

For practitioners, this disruption raises pressing questions:

  • Am I investing in the right kind of disruption?
  • Will my current skills remain relevant?
  • How do I adapt as AI converges roles across data engineering, analytics, data science, and BI?

The Fifth Elephant Winter Edition brings the community together to explore these questions and share experiments, case studies, and implementations around AI-driven analytics and data workflows.

Featured talks

  1. Reliable AI for analytics: inside Swiggy’s data co-pilot architecture: Demo-driven session on how Swiggy builds reliable agentic data co-pilots that turn plain-English business questions into trustworthy, cross-source insights with rock-solid guardrails.
    Presenter: Amaresh Marripuddi, Product at Swiggy
  2. Inside DataGaaru: the AI analyst saving 20% of Razorpay’s analytics time: How Razorpay built, scaled, and productionized its AI Analyst “DataGaaru” to turn a data team bottleneck into a self-serve insights engine used across the company.
    Presenter: Prerit Khandelwal, Director, Product Analytics at Razorpay
  3. OpenMetadata - the semantic layer your AI needs: How teams are already using OpenMetadata + Model Context Protocol (MCP) agents to automate governance, optimize pipelines, improve data quality, and enable context-aware AI workflows.

Presenters

    Mining Digital Exhaust

    Every day, we leave behind a trail of digital exhaust — browser histories, search queries, command-line logs, chat messages, fitness data, and more. This workshop transforms that overlooked byproduct into a playground for insight. You’ll extract your own digital traces (or choose anonymized samples), explore them through data analysis, and use large language models to automatically generate meani… more

    Building Data Co‑Pilots that work!

    Building Data Co‑Pilots is a session on how to use agentic LLMs to reliably answer complex business questions by aggregating data across many sources—warehouse/lakehouse tables, metrics/semantic layers, feature stores, logs, and knowledge bases. We will walk through the system design that turns a plain‑English question (e.g., “Why did cancellations spike in City X yesterday?”) into an executable … more
