When you're the first data professional at the organization there are technical, process, and qualitative considerations for analytics and data science to address (A/DS). This talk is an overview of strategy, infrastructure, and tools for creating your first A/DS stacks. At this stage, the range of problems that you are able to solve relate to organization, operational, data engineering, business intelligence, and communication. Creating the optimal A/DS stack can seamlessly pave the way to big data and integrating the newest technologies in the future. Please share your stories and experience with us as well. Outline of talk, where sections intend to be interactive and get feedback from the audience: 1. So you're the first Data Scientist 2. Setting Their Expectations 3. Lay of the Land - Data requirements and organizational survey 4. Setting Your Expectations 5. Infrastructure - Your Stack Options 6. Resources: Get Help, Get a Team 7. Discussion

5. There are many variations of passages of Lorem Ipsum available, but the majority have suffered alteration in some form,
by injected humour, or randomized words which don't look even slightly believable.
If you are going to use a passage of Lorem Ipsum, you need to be sure there isn't anything embarrassing hidden in the
middle of text. All the Lorem Ipsum generators on the Internet tend to repeat predefined chunks as necessary, making this
the first true generator on the Internet.
