Data modeling has transformed regulatory reporting and collaboration across cloud environments
In erwin Data Modeler, areas that have room for improvement include performance improvements. I see that large models sometimes cause it to be slow when opening. Impact analysis can lag as well. Version control is another aspect. If we have developed a current version, it is not integrated with Git where we can easily compare different versions. UI modernization is also something we cannot utilize as it is primarily for development. Additionally, cloud-specific optimizations are needed when it comes to Snowflake or Databricks. When it comes to AI aspects, auto-suggestions for normalization or identifying primary, foreign, or surrogate keys are areas that can be improved.

Server management headaches have disappeared and deployment of APIs is now fully automated
My advice to others looking into using Serverless is that you don't need to worry about the server maintenance, the servers, and where you host the servers. All these headaches go away. Definitely it's good to use. All the headaches that we have been doing for all these years can be gotten rid of, definitely. This has been a great initiative taken by AWS. Previously, we thought that we cannot host our applications without any server, but AWS proves us wrong by creating a Serverless application, the option to deploy our applications without any server. This is a really great initiative done by AWS. I rate this solution an eight out of ten.
