Azure Synapse Analytics Services (Webinar) - Key Highlights
Korcomptenz presented a webinar titled “From Business Hindsight to Foresight with Azure Synapse Analytics” The webinar was conducted on June 3rd, 2021, and the main objectives were as follows:
Reporting of the Past and Analytics of the Future.
Azure Synapse Analytics services combine data integration, enterprise data warehousing, and big data analytics.
We showed how an increasing number of organizations are transitioning, from the kind of decision systems that analyze past events to newer systems that predict future events and recommend actions for the best possible outcomes.
The Industrial Applications of Azure Synapse Analytics Insights
We shared some examples of how these technologies can be potentially used across industries such as manufacturing and retail.
In manufacturing, we can build these solutions using a multi-step process, across three distinct horizons – Connected, Predictive and Cognitive Horizon.
The most successful retailers are the ones who embrace tech intensity today to plan for their future. Tech intensity requires organizations to stop not just adopting the latest technology to support their business model transformation, but to go a step further to build their own digital capabilities on top of that technology.
