9 00:02:21.380 ⇒ 00:02:36.099 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, I… I can give an update on, the SPINS workstream. So, I think, Ashwini, I saw your notes, so I feel pretty clear. Can we… can we get any of the QA pieces into…
10 00:02:36.520 ⇒ 00:02:42.159 Uttam Kumaran: the Google Sheet, so that they can review, and then I can send that over.
11 00:02:43.620 ⇒ 00:02:53.099 Ashwini Sharma: Yeah, I can add, I can add the resulting data set, I just have to put the numbers from platform also, now that it is there, right? I’ll do that.
12 00:02:53.970 ⇒ 00:02:57.339 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, great. Can we do that, like, can we do it in the next hour, you think?
13 00:02:57.930 ⇒ 00:03:00.010 Ashwini Sharma: Yeah, I can do it in the next 1 hour.
14 00:03:00.400 ⇒ 00:03:02.090 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, okay, perfect, thanks.
15 00:03:03.580 ⇒ 00:03:05.540 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, go ahead, Demi.

17 00:03:12.210 ⇒ 00:03:15.579 Demilade Agboola: It’s currently being QA’d by JT and their team.
18 00:03:15.910 ⇒ 00:03:24.049 Demilade Agboola: they’re just, like, I’ve gotten some feedback on, like, one or two things that I need to, like, tidy up, but I’ll do that, like, within the next hour or two, send it to him.
19 00:03:24.170 ⇒ 00:03:27.670 Demilade Agboola: He also wants, like, a QA doc, so my plan is to…
20 00:03:27.960 ⇒ 00:03:36.110 Demilade Agboola: Put the code for each metric right in the sheet that we have access to, so it’s much easier for him to be able to read
21 00:03:36.330 ⇒ 00:03:40.549 Demilade Agboola: The logic, as well as the code that provides that logic.
22 00:03:42.580 ⇒ 00:03:43.180 Uttam Kumaran: Okay.
23 00:03:47.120 ⇒ 00:03:57.280 Awaish Kumar: So yeah, we… are today focusing on building these models and some documentation, along with the QA sheet.
24 00:03:58.810 ⇒ 00:03:59.380 Demilade Agboola: Yep.
25 00:03:59.880 ⇒ 00:04:00.610 Awaish Kumar: Okay.

27 00:04:07.400 ⇒ 00:04:13.360 Awaish Kumar: like, the day of the week, I would also like if you also update
28 00:04:13.600 ⇒ 00:04:18.030 Awaish Kumar: on what are the goals for this week. Like, just maybe a one-line.
29 00:04:24.660 ⇒ 00:04:25.769 Demilade Agboola: Oh, yeah, I think…
30 00:04:26.740 ⇒ 00:04:33.500 Demilade Agboola: So I think for this week, I’m not necessarily sure what the goal is, especially as we’re not… we’ve not yet necessarily signed the contract with them.
31 00:04:34.800 ⇒ 00:04:35.180 Awaish Kumar: Okay.
32 00:04:35.180 ⇒ 00:04:35.700 Demilade Agboola: I know that.
33 00:04:35.700 ⇒ 00:04:40.860 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, I mean, we just have to… yeah, I think overall, we just have to close out these two…
34 00:04:41.900 ⇒ 00:04:43.970 Awaish Kumar: These two items, yeah.
35 00:04:46.370 ⇒ 00:04:47.560 Awaish Kumar: Okay, yeah.
36 00:04:48.500 ⇒ 00:04:49.130 Uttam Kumaran: Yep.
37 00:04:49.630 ⇒ 00:04:55.189 Awaish Kumar: Okay, moving on to the next… client CTA.
38 00:04:56.480 ⇒ 00:04:58.650 Awaish Kumar: Yeah, Utom, if you wanna go…
39 00:04:59.540 ⇒ 00:05:10.739 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, so, I mean, I think still focuses on those models, so I think, Awash, you worked on some. I don’t know, Ashwini, if you had any chance to work on any modeling last week.
40 00:05:10.740 ⇒ 00:05:13.620 Ashwini Sharma: No, last week, I didn’t get. This week, I’ll work.
41 00:05:15.180 ⇒ 00:05:22.789 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, yeah, so we have until, like, I mean, I want to try to push as much out tomorrow as we can.
42 00:05:22.980 ⇒ 00:05:28.159 Uttam Kumaran: So I’ll be spending, you know, an hour working on a few things as well.
43 00:05:28.480 ⇒ 00:05:38.269 Uttam Kumaran: So I’ll send some notes today. And then, yeah, I mean, I’m probably gonna try to spend the evening also working on CTA work to just knock it out.
44 00:05:40.690 ⇒ 00:05:45.850 Awaish Kumar: Okay, actually, yeah… You wanna give updates?
45 00:05:47.090 ⇒ 00:05:53.149 Ashwini Sharma: Yeah, for CTA, I didn’t do anything last week, but yeah, this week I’ll be working on some of the models.
46 00:05:54.500 ⇒ 00:06:00.440 Awaish Kumar: Yeah, like… Like, if you… if we take the stand-up as in, like.
47 00:06:00.930 ⇒ 00:06:05.430 Awaish Kumar: based on our roles, like CSO and EP, So…
48 00:06:06.130 ⇒ 00:06:08.890 Awaish Kumar: I would, like, love to hear the updates that way.
49 00:06:09.190 ⇒ 00:06:14.480 Ashwini Sharma: Yeah, so we have a delivery of, member engagement report on Thursday.
50 00:06:16.140 ⇒ 00:06:17.250 Uttam Kumaran: And…
51 00:06:17.250 ⇒ 00:06:22.209 Ashwini Sharma: At least the tasks are all created, so if we are able to complete the task, we should be able to deliver the report.
52 00:06:22.980 ⇒ 00:06:25.689 Awaish Kumar: Okay, and there are no blockers on the client.
53 00:06:25.870 ⇒ 00:06:26.750 Awaish Kumar: For now.
54 00:06:26.750 ⇒ 00:06:35.519 Ashwini Sharma: I don’t see any bloggers right now. The only thing is that, you know, for any report that we are generating, I saw your PR, Avish, right?
55 00:06:35.540 ⇒ 00:06:38.960 Awaish Kumar: There is some kind of an entity resolution that.
56 00:06:38.960 ⇒ 00:06:39.530 Ashwini Sharma: But…
57 00:06:39.680 ⇒ 00:06:45.010 Ashwini Sharma: we need to look into, right? I’m not sure if there is entity resolutions in the PR that you have worked.
58 00:06:45.160 ⇒ 00:06:54.609 Ashwini Sharma: But mostly, all the data sets that are there refer to some kind of customer or organization, right? And sometimes that reference is not evident.
59 00:06:54.970 ⇒ 00:06:57.430 Ashwini Sharma: Purely evident, right? So…
60 00:06:57.600 ⇒ 00:07:04.180 Ashwini Sharma: Maybe you’ll have to work around a bit to figure out which customer is being referred to in that entity.
61 00:07:05.340 ⇒ 00:07:06.190 Awaish Kumar: Okay, okay.
62 00:07:07.680 ⇒ 00:07:21.939 Awaish Kumar: Okay, yeah. So, Utam, like, after, like, I just have one question on this now. Now that we are working on the model, what is the final output, like, do we wanna, like, wanna build a dashboard, or…
63 00:07:22.090 ⇒ 00:07:23.419 Awaish Kumar: Something like that.
64 00:07:23.420 ⇒ 00:07:29.169 Uttam Kumaran: No, we just have to deliver the models to them. Their analysts are gonna build all the models on top of it.
65 00:07:29.680 ⇒ 00:07:34.980 Uttam Kumaran: But we just have to make sure that… that all of that is being… all of that can be supported, the report.
66 00:07:36.820 ⇒ 00:07:49.730 Awaish Kumar: like, the report I saw, that is just… like, each section is just a single table, and these are, like, very simple tables sometimes, like, just with some filter, so…
67 00:07:50.230 ⇒ 00:07:54.020 Awaish Kumar: Yeah, so I know it’s… that’s all we gotta build. It’s pretty…
68 00:07:54.020 ⇒ 00:07:55.629 Uttam Kumaran: It should be pretty easy, yeah.
69 00:07:55.630 ⇒ 00:07:56.540 Awaish Kumar: Okay, okay.
70 00:07:56.970 ⇒ 00:08:03.129 Awaish Kumar: I’m just conf… Okay, then next is, Element.
71 00:08:04.690 ⇒ 00:08:05.470 Awaish Kumar: Yep.
72 00:08:06.090 ⇒ 00:08:18.979 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, I can give an update. So, I’m gonna send a note today, maybe I wish I can help draft a message with you. So, this week is their, like, rest and assess week, so this week is going to be more focused on documentation.
73 00:08:19.060 ⇒ 00:08:30.259 Uttam Kumaran: And, like, planning for February. So, I’ll send a little bit of a note on, like, kind of core priorities, but, for the most part, we shouldn’t have any meetings with them. I have one meeting
74 00:08:30.410 ⇒ 00:08:36.580 Uttam Kumaran: on Thursday with her, but otherwise, it should be pretty quiet.
75 00:08:36.760 ⇒ 00:08:43.750 Uttam Kumaran: So I think it’s a good time for us to catch up. I think, Awash, on the DE side, it would be great for you to
76 00:08:43.870 ⇒ 00:08:52.859 Uttam Kumaran: Update the data sources documentation and indicate which ones we’re still waiting on access to, or which ones we’re still waiting on.
77 00:08:53.730 ⇒ 00:09:00.580 Uttam Kumaran: polyatomic for, so I know you’ll handle that. And then, Robert is gonna start to handle the…
78 00:09:00.840 ⇒ 00:09:03.200 Uttam Kumaran: Google Sheets-related work, so…
79 00:09:03.440 ⇒ 00:09:03.890 Awaish Kumar: Okay.
80 00:09:04.890 ⇒ 00:09:09.230 Awaish Kumar: Yeah, so, kind of, data sources is almost…
81 00:09:09.710 ⇒ 00:09:17.490 Awaish Kumar: is updated, I will just review it again, if there’s missing… if there’s anything missing. But, otherwise,
82 00:09:17.660 ⇒ 00:09:20.050 Awaish Kumar: We want to work on immersion, right?
83 00:09:20.480 ⇒ 00:09:21.500 Awaish Kumar: This week.
84 00:09:21.650 ⇒ 00:09:22.610 Uttam Kumaran: Yes, yes.
85 00:09:22.610 ⇒ 00:09:23.360 Awaish Kumar: So, yeah.
86 00:09:23.870 ⇒ 00:09:26.580 Awaish Kumar: So, I… maybe…
87 00:09:26.810 ⇒ 00:09:34.240 Awaish Kumar: there are some tickets in the backlog I will pull in for the immersion to this week, to this cycle, and…
88 00:09:34.540 ⇒ 00:09:38.170 Awaish Kumar: I will focus on modeling the retail data.
89 00:09:40.280 ⇒ 00:09:40.830 Uttam Kumaran: Okay.
90 00:09:41.090 ⇒ 00:09:41.800 Awaish Kumar: Okay.
91 00:09:42.710 ⇒ 00:09:49.229 Awaish Kumar: And then apart from… okay, then moving on to…
92 00:09:49.340 ⇒ 00:09:52.150 Awaish Kumar: ABC. Is there anything on ABC?
93 00:09:53.750 ⇒ 00:09:59.300 Uttam Kumaran: I don’t… I think there’s just one,
94 00:09:59.860 ⇒ 00:10:05.100 Uttam Kumaran: there’s one remaining dataset in Google Drive that needs to get merged into BigQuery.
95 00:10:05.220 ⇒ 00:10:06.499 Uttam Kumaran: the dream dataset?
96 00:10:08.140 ⇒ 00:10:12.779 Uttam Kumaran: So maybe that’s something that Amber can flag to Mustafa for help?
97 00:10:14.240 ⇒ 00:10:16.679 Uttam Kumaran: Otherwise, on the data side, not really.
98 00:10:17.750 ⇒ 00:10:24.999 Awaish Kumar: Okay, so, like, my question is, are we waiting for Amber to flag, or should we reach out and ask Amber?
99 00:10:25.460 ⇒ 00:10:28.140 Uttam Kumaran: I can, I can… I can flag in the channel.
100 00:10:28.410 ⇒ 00:10:29.060 Awaish Kumar: Okay.
101 00:10:32.620 ⇒ 00:10:38.170 Awaish Kumar: Yeah, that’s all for ABC, moving on to… default.
102 00:10:39.340 ⇒ 00:10:40.400 Awaish Kumar: -
103 00:10:40.880 ⇒ 00:10:42.599 Awaish Kumar: Yeah, Debbie, you can move on.
104 00:10:44.170 ⇒ 00:10:50.359 Demilade Agboola: So for default, this week, our primary contact is out of office.
105 00:10:50.360 ⇒ 00:10:51.650 Awaish Kumar: Caitlin…
106 00:10:51.710 ⇒ 00:11:00.299 Demilade Agboola: But the goal is still to, ensure that we’re able to progress with amplitude, as well as also, get the S3
107 00:11:00.800 ⇒ 00:11:07.080 Demilade Agboola: access that will allow us to, sync data from data sources into Polytom, into MotherDoc.
108 00:11:07.560 ⇒ 00:11:23.949 Demilade Agboola: And also, just continue to integrate as many data sources into Polyatomic as we can now, so that when S3 access is given, it would just be syncing it directly, rather than still having to integrate the data sources as well.
109 00:11:25.610 ⇒ 00:11:29.039 Awaish Kumar: Okay, so this is kind of blocked right on.
110 00:11:29.980 ⇒ 00:11:38.200 Demilade Agboola: Yes, the integration is blocked. Like, getting into MotherDoc is blocked, but we can also integrate the data sources into Polytomic first, though.
111 00:11:39.940 ⇒ 00:11:40.640 Awaish Kumar: Okay.
112 00:11:41.840 ⇒ 00:11:48.099 Awaish Kumar: So… And then setting up the wall link. This… this is done.
113 00:11:49.050 ⇒ 00:11:50.069 Demilade Agboola: Yes.
114 00:11:51.260 ⇒ 00:11:51.920 Awaish Kumar: Okay.
115 00:11:52.470 ⇒ 00:11:59.179 Awaish Kumar: Yeah, like… Mustwa… Like, what are updates from your side?
116 00:11:59.380 ⇒ 00:12:05.420 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, so, the timeline is a little, delayed because of, S3.
117 00:12:05.850 ⇒ 00:12:13.719 Mustafa Raja: Apart from that, For the ad hoc request, there’s another blocker, we do not have the harmony…
118 00:12:13.920 ⇒ 00:12:22.829 Mustafa Raja: AI key… For the vendor, which I’m going to reach out, again, in external channels.
119 00:12:24.550 ⇒ 00:12:25.300 Awaish Kumar: Okay.
120 00:12:29.180 ⇒ 00:12:31.400 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, that’s…
121 00:12:32.070 ⇒ 00:12:41.020 Awaish Kumar: Okay, so, like, This week, we will be focusing on just getting the S3 and delivering the the injection.
122 00:12:42.880 ⇒ 00:12:44.690 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, for the most part, yeah.
123 00:12:45.230 ⇒ 00:12:45.840 Awaish Kumar: Okay.
124 00:12:48.180 ⇒ 00:12:50.840 Awaish Kumar: Then moving on to Eden.
125 00:12:51.180 ⇒ 00:12:57.159 Awaish Kumar: I… yeah, there are some… Tickets, which are…
126 00:12:57.560 ⇒ 00:13:02.910 Awaish Kumar: been created by Zoran, actually, now that we…
127 00:13:03.720 ⇒ 00:13:09.530 Awaish Kumar: Now that he has… he’s working on some reconciliation, so… I…
128 00:13:10.080 ⇒ 00:13:15.700 Awaish Kumar: I will be supporting him on Eden, on some of the tickets where he needs help.
129 00:13:16.140 ⇒ 00:13:21.360 Awaish Kumar: It’s more of a marketing-related work, and
130 00:13:21.670 ⇒ 00:13:27.980 Awaish Kumar: Then, for Eden OS, we don’t have anything here, so I will maybe… I can show…
131 00:13:29.880 ⇒ 00:13:32.120 Awaish Kumar: You’re gonna still see my screen, right?
132 00:13:34.650 ⇒ 00:13:35.280 Uttam Kumaran: No.
133 00:13:36.170 ⇒ 00:13:37.749 Awaish Kumar: I never shared it.
134 00:13:38.380 ⇒ 00:13:38.950 Uttam Kumaran: No.
135 00:13:38.950 ⇒ 00:13:40.180 Awaish Kumar: Oh, sorry.
136 00:13:41.280 ⇒ 00:13:45.010 Awaish Kumar: I was just showing all the tickets and everything, so…
137 00:13:46.140 ⇒ 00:13:49.749 Awaish Kumar: I thought you were… you can see the… Sorry, so…
138 00:13:49.900 ⇒ 00:13:52.199 Awaish Kumar: Yeah, what I’m doing right now is…
139 00:13:53.620 ⇒ 00:13:59.220 Awaish Kumar: These are the dashboards, I think, like, the robot wanted me to give… get these answers.
140 00:13:59.670 ⇒ 00:14:09.770 Awaish Kumar: kind of in this, like, the direct answer, like, this is the dashboard in the Tableau, can we do it… can we build the sub-dashboard using the remote platform? So…
141 00:14:09.890 ⇒ 00:14:16.220 Awaish Kumar: I have QA’d some of the dashboards, and I will continue to do that.
142 00:14:16.330 ⇒ 00:14:21.729 Awaish Kumar: And, I will be… I’m adding these, like, notes. If we can’t do it, why?
143 00:14:21.950 ⇒ 00:14:25.170 Awaish Kumar: And if we can do it, then that’s just yes.
144 00:14:25.580 ⇒ 00:14:32.349 Awaish Kumar: After that, like, he will be able to clearly say what’s possible and whatnot at this stage, and
145 00:14:33.360 ⇒ 00:14:35.160 Awaish Kumar: And apart from that.
146 00:14:36.610 ⇒ 00:14:44.619 Awaish Kumar: We have to also plan the modeling work, like, since we have the schema, if I’m saying yes, that means we need models to
147 00:14:44.720 ⇒ 00:14:46.310 Awaish Kumar: to support it.
148 00:14:47.330 ⇒ 00:14:49.499 Awaish Kumar: But we don’t have any data yet.
149 00:14:50.810 ⇒ 00:14:52.380 Awaish Kumar: So, yeah.
150 00:14:53.170 ⇒ 00:14:55.509 Awaish Kumar: Like, maybe I need,
151 00:14:56.370 ⇒ 00:15:01.249 Awaish Kumar: some help on WorldLink’s side to build those models, and then validate them was…
152 00:15:01.410 ⇒ 00:15:04.949 Awaish Kumar: data arrives. Yeah, that’s all for now.
153 00:15:09.690 ⇒ 00:15:10.860 Awaish Kumar: Okay.
154 00:15:12.980 ⇒ 00:15:15.960 Awaish Kumar: Okay, yeah, that’s all from my side.

156 00:15:20.040 ⇒ 00:15:26.369 Uttam Kumaran: It looks like there’s some, something on Eden going on today, but I think that’s probably more on the strategy side.
157 00:15:28.240 ⇒ 00:15:31.860 Awaish Kumar: Yeah, that’s what… that’s the marketing stuff that Zorad works on.

161 00:15:53.910 ⇒ 00:16:02.460 Awaish Kumar: Attribution on the engineer side. And the third thing is the server-to-server side, which, like, We are supporting.

163 00:16:06.080 ⇒ 00:16:15.880 Awaish Kumar: Where is the problem? And if… then, if it is a server-to-server side, then we can help. Otherwise, I think Zoran is already investigating that.
