Leveraging DataOps to Build India’s National Data Platform
India’s National Data Platform is one of the largest public sector data lake projects of its kind and is used by everyone from the Prime Minister of India himself to every member of parliament and 100,000 government officials.

The most unique thing about the landmark project: It was built by an eight-member team in under 12 months.
