Data-Driven Analytics Use Cases Powered by the Avalanche Cloud Data Platform

Our new eBook “Data-Driven Analytics Use Cases Powered by the Avalanche Cloud Data Platform” is designed for users and application builders looking to address a wide range of data analytics, integration, and edge use cases. We have included the following examples from real-world customer experiences and deployments to serve as a guide to help you understand what is possible with the Actian (also known as Avalanche) platform.

Customer 360

With the Actian (also known as Avalanche) platform powering Customer 360, organizations can rapidly personalize the customer experience through micro-segmentation, next-best action, and market basket analysis while improving customer acquisition and retention through campaign optimization, and churn analysis to increase customer loyalty.

Healthcare Analytics

The Actian Data platform helps healthcare payer and provider organizations leverage analytics to protect their businesses against fraud, increase care delivery, provider efficiency, and accuracy, while accelerating the transformation to an outcome-centric model.

IoT-Powered Edge-to-Cloud Analytics

Edge applications and devices rely on complex data processing and analytics to improve automation and end-user decision support. The underlying cloud and edge data management solutions must leverage a variety of hardware architectures, operating systems, communications interfaces, and languages. The Actian Platform and its Zen Edge Data Management option provide broad, high-performant, and cost-effective capabilities for this demanding set of requirements. 

ITOps Health and Security Analytics

With the explosion of ITOps, DevOps, AIOps, and SecOps data streaming from multiple clouds, applications, and on-premises platforms, many vendors are working to provide data visibility in their domains. However, they fall short of creating a holistic view to predictively identify trouble spots, security risks, and bottlenecks. How can businesses gain real-time actionable insights with a holistic IT analytics approach? The Actian platform makes it easy to combine data from thousands of data sources into a unified hybrid-cloud data platform capable of real-time analysis of applications, infrastructure, and security posture.

Supply Chain Analytics

Manufacturing is a far more complex process, compared with just a few decades ago, with subcomponents required to assemble a single final product sourced from several places around the globe. Along with this complexity is a massive amount of data that needs to be analyzed to optimize supply chains, manage procurement, address distribution challenges, and predict needs. The Actian platform helps companies easily aggregate and analyze massive amounts of supply chain data to gain data-driven insights for optimizing supply chain efficiency, reducing disruptions, and increasing operating margins.

Machine Learning and Data Science

The Actian Data Platform enables data science teams to collaborate across the full data lifecycle with immediate access to data pipelines, scalable compute resources, and preferred tools. In addition, the Actian platform streamlines the process of getting analytic workloads into production and intelligently managing machine learning use cases from the edge to the cloud. With built-in data integration and data preparation for any streaming, edge, or enterprise data source, aggregation of model data has never been easier. Combined with direct support for model training systems and tools and the ability to execute models directly within the data platform alongside the data, companies can capitalize on dynamic cloud scaling of analytics, compute, and storage resources.

Why Actian?

Customers trust Actian because we provide more than just a platform. We help organizations make confident, data-driven decisions to reduce costs and enhance performance. Using our Actian Data Platform, companies can easily connect, manage, and analyze their data for a wide range of use cases. You can trust that your teams are making the best decisions that address today’s challenges and anticipate future needs.
