We're building a data lake which is pretty boring. I try to keep myself inspired that maybe just maybe the optimizations gained from these data analytics will lead to a drop in our greenhouse gas emissions from this organization.

Data... lake?

Centralized data storage that is more flexible than a data warehouse. Just a big ole database

Can you give a practical example of what sort of data might be stored? And is all the data 'owned" by the company you work for, by one client, or by many clients?

It's all maintenance and parts data for an airline. Which is why if we do things right, there's a chance we could improve efficiency and lower carbon emissions. We own most the data as we're creating it, rest may be vendors
