A six-part series on IBM's own answer to the MAS 9 native-analytics ceiling: watsonx.data's open Iceberg lakehouse, fit-for-purpose query engines, MIF/Kafka extraction, medallion architecture, watsonx.ai and RAG, closed-loop write-back, and an honest head-to-head with Databricks.

MAS 9 ships real native analytics — Operational Dashboards, Cognos, Health, Predict, Monitor — but every one of them has a ceiling. Part 1 names those ceilings precisely and explains why a lakehouse, not another dashboard, is what sits past them.

A six-part series on where MAS 9 native analytics stops and Databricks starts — data extraction patterns, the medallion architecture for Maximo objects, five concrete analytics use cases, custom ML versus Maximo Predict, and lakehouse governance.
