Transforming Data Silos into Actionable Enterprise Insights

Paradoxically, technology experts are turning to AI for positive disruptions while ignoring the low-hanging fruit of AI-assisted data integration. Every time they seek new data-driven insights, it’s a rinse and repeat of the often ineffective and inefficient building of new data warehouses, lakes or the “rip and replace” of enterprise systems. edgeTI^™ has devised a different approach.

edgeTI challenges enterprises to look at data and data architecture, in a new and more effective way. edgeTI's performative data mesh/fabric solution, edgeCore^™, disrupts the status quo by leaving data in its authoritative source, accessing and transforming data in real-time when and how it's needed by the user.

The result is the proverbial and storied single-pane-of-glass, in a dynamic, low-code UI that comprehensively delivers the actionable insights you need at the speed of relevance. It’s not a rip and replace, but rather an AI-enabled, COTS software platform that provides results in weeks rather than months or years. By integrating existing legacy systems, edgeCore delivers unprecedented situational awareness and a higher ROI on existing enterprise solutions.

“Most systems in use today have been built over decades and are closely tied to specific departmental tasks. Real, cost-effective, value lies in enhancing and integrating existing tools to provide timely cross-department insights and actionability within the tools people know and use daily, without any disruption to current and future operations,” says Jacques Jarman, Chief Growth and Federal Operations Officer at edgeTI.

Making Compliance Work Across Every System

Teams often juggle many applications and stitch data in spreadsheet to gain new insights. edgeCore presents a secure role-based view, across existing systems that supports updates at both the data and application layers. Since data is not copied or moved, new insights are added quickly, without building a new data store.

For instance, consider cross-system compliance. Connectivity enables secure, actual federation across HR, identity, mobile self-reporting, internal skills databases and project systems without copying data. Managers see only the fields they need, personally identifiable information remains protected and workflows stay intact.

edgeCore's capabilities were evident when the Biden Administration issued the Executive Order ensuring COVID-19 safety protocols for federal contractors in September 2021. Government contractors scrambled to determine the vaccine status of all their employees. For those who were not vaccinated, they needed to determine if these individuals intended to become fully vaccinated by October 2021. While many federal contractors hired teams of lawyers to continually extract and evaluate PII data from their HR systems to ensure compliance, in four days one edgeCore user designed, composed, and deployed a series of secure COVID dashboards to allow all executives and program managers to make informed decisions based on real-time vaccination status. Additionally, if new employees are hired, individual employee COVID statuses change, new contracts are won, or employees are reassigned, the dashboards update in real-time to provide up-to-the-minute compliance analysis and insights. All at a fraction of the cost of manual reporting.

Faster Outcomes with Partner-Built Applications

Clients see results faster when experts build targeted applications on a platform that works across the systems they already use. edgeCore users create workflows and views from existing enterprise tools such as SAP ERP, as well as other MES, PLM, CRM and HR systems. Teams operate familiar interfaces, time-to-value shortens and updates land continuously across environments that often span hundreds of mission-critical applications.

Many software vendors monetize the storage of duplicative data to increase license revenues. By integrating with existing authentication and single sign-on solutions in use by its customers, edgeCore’s sophisticated Single Sign-On features ensure access controls are adhered to for every user in each source system and only authorized data and views are displayed. Data remains in place, keeping the organization's data secure and accelerating production deployment approvals.

Legacy solutions, on the other hand, require the development of large bespoke applications designed to replace and/or consolidate systems. edgeCore offers a better, more cost-effective, timely and performative route to real-time actionable situational awareness.
