DataOps does what it is supposed to but may introduce new challenges according to our analysis of the raw data from a survey on behalf of https://data.world/integrations and https://datakitchen.io/dataops-maturity-model/. Two-thirds of the study participants in August’s https://data.world/industryresearch/data-engineer-survey-2021 develop, maintain, and optimize data systems to make data available for analysis.

The success rate doubles for mature DataOps practices, going to 46% of respondents claiming very effective collaboration.

For example, at companies with mature DataOps practices, 36% of respondents say data governance policies may their day-to-day jobs very difficult while only 12% of those at firms that are at an earlier stage in the DataOps process feel this way.

Here is a red flag for employers that are worried about retaining and attracting talent — 43% of those at companies with mature DataOps practices are very likely to depart for another data engineering job in the next 12 years.
