The ability of campaigns to effectively leverage state and national voter files is critical to establishing a data-driven political strategy. But because they are comprised of extreme levels of data diversity, creating these valuable files is a monumental data challenge. Jim Harrold, data services engineer at NationBuilder, explains how his team can wrangle enormous data diversity challenges to power the ever-changing political landscape using Trifacta.

It–s well known that data analysts spend 80 percent of their time preparing data and only 20 percent analyzing. To change that ratio, organizations must build tools specifically designed for working with ad hoc (semi-structured) data. Sean Kandel, founder and CTO, and Karthik Sethuraman, senior software engineer at Trifacta discuss the development of a new technique leveraging machine learning to discover and profile the inherent structure in ad hoc datasets.

Descriptions of data analysis often waver between two poles: the technical heroics of data science and the broad ideal of “democratizing” data. This is reflected in a corresponding polarization of user experiences. This disparity makes designing broad-adoption interfaces difficult. Joe Hellerstein, the Jim Gray chair of computer science at UC Berkeley and cofounder and CSO at Trifacta, Giorgio Caviglia, principal UX designer and Alon Bartur, director of product management, explain these challenges based on their work on interfaces for data wrangling. Wrangling is an excellent petri dish for data-centric UX design because it couples the need to understand data with the need to manipulate data — often in contexts that require end-user control and customization to match the peculiarities of each data source.
