The Data Intelligent Enterprise to Survive and Thrive

Does this require any more persuasion post pandemic?

Cloud, Big Data, AI, and IoT: Often touted as the fundamental pillars of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, a multi-impact phase described as more revolutionary and larger than the last three. However, if we lean closer, what seems like four different technologies on the surface form part of a larger whole.

Modern enterprises are fast expanding into diversified endpoint ecosystems: mobiles, user PCs and laptops, smartwatches and wearable devices, biometric devices, sensors, and more. Gargantuan amounts of data flow from these endpoint ecosystems to the centralized Cloud IT ecosystems where the same is stored and processed with cutting-edge analytical solutions. AI solutions run on top to generate smart business insights, automate key processes, and lay the groundwork for further innovations, affecting the firm’s endpoint footprint across and the market. The cycle repeats with information and intelligence at the core.

Such competency is fundamental for 21st-century businesses. But, what’s the reality?

The connected universe would span to31billion devices by 2025, generating data in the range of 175-180 zettabytes

CIOs rank Data Analytics Competency as the numero uno factor while considering market relevance and competitiveness
Top performing organizations utilize analytics5Xmore than peers
Advanced analytics results in33%more growth and 12X more profits for enterprises

Cloud Engin: Beyond the Obvious

Over a hundred million businesses today still lack basic awareness and skill sets on data management, let alone deploying AI for intelligent transformation. Major reasons include insufficient storage, inertia with age-old legacy infrastructure, crippling cybersecurity strategies, and traditional, non-smart business models. While Facebook and other digital giants have already voiced for the Metaverse (an embedded digital reality for starters), many major corporations are still struggling to replace their paper documentation. Workflow management is painfully offline-centric even to this date.

Cloud Engine, the world’s leading automation-driven, application-focused managed cloud services provider, ensures the perfect transformation journey to being a data-empowered, intelligent enterprise. Migrate to the cloud at zero disruption to business as usual, optimize processes with leading hyper automation-RPA solutions for maximum ROI, modernize core assets (virtualization of legacy systems, infrastructure, computing resources, networks, servers, data centers, storage, platforms, third-party systems), and onboard advanced applications to digitize operations and workflows across all departments.

Embrace a full-stack data management suite including data collection, cleansing, monitoring, dataflow administration, data modernization, and deep information analysis.

5 Common challenges in implementing Enterprise AI

Determining the Right Datasets

Identification and aggregation of accurate training datasets are critical to improving an AI solution’s learning and decision-making. To achieve the same, businesses may have to connect with Data and AI experts to realize the right datasets, train the deployed algorithms for top-notch accuracy, and enable transformative experiences

Data Security and Storage

Larger the training data set, the more accurate is the AI’s prediction capability. However, storage issues plague businesses in the utilization of large volumes of data. Moreover, there’s always a gnawing concern of data security while driving automated, data-intelligent operations. This is why it is integral for businesses to embrace proper data management environments to implement the right AI.

Infrastructure Silos

Development, testing, and running of Artificial Intelligence solutions demand high computational speed and power, often requiring advanced GPU-based systems rather than the traditional CPU-powered infra. AI-based systems will deliver truly agile outcomes if the enterprise has advanced computing technologies and infrastructure.

AI Integration with Existing Systems

Integrating AI solutions and applications into existing business systems and mission-critical infra is a challenge for most businesses. Non-synchronicity with existing libraries, APIs, middleware, architectures may pose a serious problem.

Complex Algorithms and Continual Training of AI Models

Once implementation of AI solutions is completed, enterprises still have to engage considerable manpower and resources to continually train the AI systems for maximum accuracy.

Preparing your organization for Data Analytics and AI

Building an artificial intelligence infrastructure involves deliberate and strategic planning around storage, networking and AI data needs among others.

As the volume of data grows the storage needs to scale up too. Ensuring proper storage capacity, IOPS (input/output operations per second), and reliability to deal with the massive data amounts are required for effective application of AI.

Figuring out the storage needs of an organization depends on many factors. For instance, advanced, high-value neural network ecosystems might have scaling issues related to I/O and latency. Similarly, BFSI firms that depend on real-time trading decisions may need fast all-flash storage technology.

Another key factor would be the nature of the source data – Will applications be analyzing sensor data in real-time, or will they use post-processing? How much AI data applications will generate. As databases grow over time, companies need to constantly monitor capacity to plan for expansion.

Networking is another key component of deploying AI, requiring periodic upgrades. Deep learning algorithms are highly dependent on communications and enterprise networks must be highly scalable with high bandwidth and low latency. Companies should automate wherever possible. Software-defined networks (SDNs) powered by machine learning create intent-based networks that can anticipate network demands or security threats and react in real-time.

Having powerful compute resources, including CPUs and GPUs is critical for AI infrastructure. While a CPU-based environment can handle basic AI workloads, deep learning involves multiple large data sets and scalable neural network algorithms. To support that, companies must turn to GPUs to enable organizations optimize their data center infrastructure and gain power efficiency.

Organizations have much to consider here. This includes data storage, processing, and management of the information utilized or generated by the AI. One of the critical steps is data cleansing or scrubbing. This includes removing data from a database that is inaccurate, incomplete, improperly formatted or duplicated.

Data quality is especially critical with AI. Deploying automated data cleansing tools to assess data for errors using rules or algorithms is of paramount importance as the output is only as good as the input.

Data access management is highly critical, requiring efficient processes to share information with only those who need it. Data management strategies ensure that users, machines, and various endpoints have easy and fast access to data without compromising security. This necessitates proper data access controls such as IAM, data encryption solutions, and more.

Traditional Data Warehouse (DWH) systems and processes are unable to render the growth that enterprises are really capable of. The presence of siloed data, high time to insights, inefficiency across multiple systems, limited analysis of data, challenges in security and compliances ask enterprises to consolidate siloed data sources and migrate legacy systems onto the cloud.
