How to Know the Difference Between ESG and CSR Reports

 Businesses consume natural resources and utilize public infrastructure to deliver their products and services. Therefore, companies and other commercial entities have a financial and moral obligation to give back to society. Managers and investors can follow two techniques to develop a healthy relationship between the industry and the community. This post will compare CSR vs. ESG.  What Is ESG? ESG means environmental, social, and governance  criteria  that affect how investors decide which stocks to buy after assessing a company’s impact on the natural ecosystem and society.

 While investment and sustainability might seem like two entirely opposite aspects, the recent climate trends have forced them to collide.

  The new data technologies, along with legacy infrastructure, are driving market-driven innovations like personalized offers, real-time alerts, and predictive maintenance. However, these technical additions - ranging from data lakes to analytics platforms to stream processing and data mesh —have increased the complexity of data architectures. They are significantly hampering the ongoing ability of an organization to deliver new capabilities while ensuring the integrity of artificial intelligence (AI) models.  Today's transactional data systems run between  data  warehouses and operational databases like Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server, or PostgreSQL.
