Over the past couple of years, we have experienced how Analytics and Machine learning have come into action in several sectors like E-commerce, health, education, Finance, and Agriculture, and organisations could see tremendous value out of data-driven decision-making. Although we adopted distributed computing platforms in building analytics services, the outlook on unlocking insights from analytics has still been traditional, that is, by building data warehouses and data marts. The Enterprise Data Warehouse (EDW) technologies were able to integrate and harmonize data, enabling BI analysts and users to extract information reliably, but flexibility and addressing the evolving data needs have been a constant challenge.
In this talk, I would like to reveal how some hidden patterns could be extracted by
realising the problems as Graphs. I'll in-brief state some of the limitations of the existing EDW and how these could be addressed through OLAP Graph technologies. OLAP graph
technologies and their implementation, known as knowledge graphs, can link various heterogeneous data sources. I would also like to take you through some of the real-world
challenges addressed by embedding Graph + AI design principles into our strategy.
The real data challenges in our day-to-day work revolve around entities and their
respective attributes.
The talk will include:
1. Why Graph + analytics ?
2. What problems could we realise as a Graph?
3. Graph Technology for Data Integration
4. Defining consumable patterns for analysts and business stakeholders.
5. Use-cases
Entity resolution in E-commerce
360-degree view of customers
Improve enterprise decision-making by enabling cross-channel communication
Deduplicating entities
6. OLAP Graph Data Warehouse
