The Boston Alteryx Group concluded 2024 with presentations from Mikael & Rebecca 😊

 

Mikael, a senior data engineer from NKT Photonics, presented on scaling Alteryx for cost-effective enterprise computing. He detailed his company's transition from cloud-based Alteryx Server to on-premise Alteryx Designer, highlighting significant cost savings and performance improvements. Mikael's tests showed that on-premise machines, particularly powerful workstations, outperformed cloud solutions by a factor of 10 in terms of cost and runtime efficiency.

 

Rebecca, a Senior Business Intelligence Analyst from Staples, followed with a presentation on dynamic scheduling using Alteryx Server and control containers. She emphasized efficient resource utilization for large, infrequently updated workflows. Rebecca's presentation walked us through how macros can be used to implement dynamic scheduling within Alteryx workflows. She also detailed the latest changes with control containers and how these have benefited in dynamically controlling scheduling.
