The Fastest Way to Measure What Matters: The No-Data-Warehouse Approach to Advanced, Real-Time Analytics

Until now, analyzing large volumes of complex business data spanning ERP, cloud applications, and other business systems required the construction of a costly, time- consuming data warehouse. And the only way to normalize the data from these multiple sources, understand their relationships, and perform analytics at scale was via a star schema or cube. But not anymore.

Utilizing the industry’s first Direct Data Mapping engine, Incorta delivers unprecedented join performance and makes it simple to relate data across enterprise applications and other business sources. You get real-time aggregation of large, multi-faceted business data and the ability to deliver “speed of thought” insights against your most complex relational data. Best of all, Incorta makes expensive and time-consuming data warehouses, ETL, and specialized databases completely obsolete.

Big Data Automation

According to Gartner Research, only 15% of big data projects ever make it to production.

But some companies have used automation to break through the complexity, achieving extraordinary results. This webinar will introduce you to Infoworks, a software company that automates both the creation and operation of big data workflows from source to consumption, helping Fortune 500 customers implement to production in days, using 5x fewer people.
