Big data has given rise to data lakes and enabled many use cases that were not possible earlier—multidimensional analysis, IoT integration, and offloading data storage among other things. However, the earlier presumption that data lake will become the single repository for the entire enterprise has not materialized. The reason being that many enterprises have still kept the legacy technologies while adding new data lakes for specific lines of businesses like marketing, sales, and customer service. As a result, the data has become further siloed across the new big data systems and legacy infrastructure.

Fortunately, there is a way to unify the data across the enterprise irrespective of its location, format, or latency, and all without having to replicate the data into another central repository. That solution is data virtualization. It is part of a big data fabric that integrates the entire enterprise information and delivers it to business users in real time. As a data abstraction layer, it hides the complexities of accessing data from the underlying data systems, their formats and structures. Unlike ETL (Extract-Transform-Load), it does not replicate the information into another repository.

Denodo is a leader in data virtualization. Many Fortune 1000 organizations like Autodesk, Logitech, and Vizient rely on Denodo for enabling critical big data solutions within their organizations. Analysts such as Forrester Research have acknowledged Denodo as “Today, several large Fortune 1000 companies leverage Denodo to support their mission-critical data virtualization strategies.” Denodo continues to innovate on data virtualization with support for in-memory fabric, data cataloging, and enterprise-wide deployments.

It is easy to take Denodo on a self-test-drive.

erwin Helps Solve the Enterprise Data Dilemma

Most organizations don’t use all the data they’re flooded with to reach deeper conclusions about how to grow revenue, achieve regulatory compliance or make strategic decisions. They face a data dilemma: not knowing what data they have or where some of it is—plus integrating known data in various formats from numerous systems without a way to automate that process.

To accelerate the transformation of business-critical information into accurate and actionable insights, organizations need an automated, real-time, high-quality data pipeline. Then every stakeholder—data scientist, ETL developer, enterprise architect, business analyst, compliance officer, CDO and CEO—can fuel the desired outcomes based on reliable information.

erwin delivers the integration and automation that simplifies the total enterprise data management and governance lifecycle. Its persona-based erwin EDGE Platform creates an “enterprise data governance experience” that facilitates collaboration between both IT and the business to discover, understand and unlock the value of data both at rest and in motion.

By bringing together enterprise architecture, business process modeling, data mapping and data modeling around a data governance hub, the erwin EDGE helps organizations get a handle on how they manage their data. The broadest set of metadata connectors and automated code generation, data mapping and cataloging tools gives users the most agile, efficient and cost-effective means of launching and sustaining comprehensive data governance.

Ultimately, the erwin EDGE provides greater efficiencies to technical users and better, more dependable analytics to business users.

AllegroGraph—Semantic Graph Database for Knowledge Graphs

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is one of the top investment areas for companies looking to improve ROI on operations and products, and to create customer 360 views. Using AI to create “Enterprise Knowledge” and link it across the Enterprise to create a “Knowledge Graph” is a key differentiator for companies in an ever-increasing competitive landscape. The foundation for Knowledge Graphs and Artificial Intelligence lies in the facets of semantic technology provided by Franz’s AllegroGraph database. Semantic Graph databases, such as AllegroGraph, provide the core technology environment to enrich and contextualize the understanding of data. The ability to rapidly integrate new knowledge is the crux of the Knowledge Graph and depends entirely on semantic technologies.

An early innovator in Artificial Intelligence, Franz Inc. is a leading supplier of Knowledge Graph solutions with Semantic Graph Database technology as the foundation. If you really want to develop your corporate Knowledge Graph and address complex Artificial Intelligence problems, you need a data system that goes beyond just data. You have to create a system that can link to anything outside your own predefined parameters—and that can learn from previous experiences. That is where a Semantic Graph Database, like AllegroGraph, comes into the picture.

Franz Inc. provides a variety of services as part of its Knowledge Graph platform solution: from architectural consulting and technical seminars to training. Franz’s flagship product, AllegroGraph, provides the necessary power and flexibility to address high-security data environments such as HIPAA access controls, privacy rules for banks, and security models for policing, intelligence, and government.

Contact Franz Inc. to unleash the potential of your Company’s Knowledge Graph.
