Are you a #manufacturer or #distributor struggling to harness the power from your data? The Infor Data Lake can help!
The Infor Data Lake: Unifying Disparate Systems
1. The Power of Data Lakes
A #datalake is a central repository consolidating data from various sources, including disparate systems, applications, and external data feeds. In the context of Infor, the Infor Data Lake plays a pivotal role in enabling data-driven decisions. Here’s how it works:
• Integration: The Infor Data Lake seamlessly connects to both Infor CloudSuite and third-party applications. It acts as a bridge, tying together all these diverse data sources into a single, unified location.
• Massive Data Storage: Once your data resides in the data lake, it becomes a treasure trove of information. Massive amounts of data—from transaction histories to operational records—are intelligently categorized and stored.
• Data Catalog: The Data Catalog within the Infor Data Lake provides insights into critical properties such as data types and timestamps. It ensures that your data is well-organized and easily accessible for analysis and decision-making.
2. #AI and #ML: Transforming Insights into Action
Now, let’s explore how AI and ML come into play:
• Applied Machine Learning: The process of training AI systems—often called applied machine learning—allows them to learn from substantial training data. By exposing the system to real-world scenarios and adding feedback loops, accuracy, and effectiveness improve over time.
• Predictive Capabilities: Infor’s approach to AI and ML leverages the layered ecosystem of Infor OS. By unifying otherwise siloed ERP products, Infor ensures that users make decisions in sync with the organization's operations state. This synchronization is crucial for accurate predictions and actionable insights.
• Real, Tangible Value: AI and ML can transform raw data into actionable insights. Imagine having never-before-seen visibility into your existing data. With the Infor Data Lake, you can unlock previously hidden patterns, trends, and correlations. Whether analyzing open quotes, orders, or invoices, AI tools can help identify what truly matters each day.
3. Accelerating Your Data Insights
By leveraging the Infor Data Lake, you can:
• Gain Real-Time Insights: Access up-to-date information across your organization, enabling faster decision-making.
• Enhance Customer Intelligence: Understand your customers better by analyzing their behavior, preferences, and interactions.
