There are multiple use cases for this solution. First is the consolidation of data across multiple processes. Second, I'm currently working with a customer that is a large manufacturer and their goal is to move away from using Informatica MDM and another custom solution for implementing PIM. There are a lot of workflow-related capabilities in Riversand. For example, there are packaging-related AI-based algorithms, meaning that for a given product, the workflow of the algorithm makes a call to an AI-based algorithm that tells it what packaging goes with a given product. This allows the user to select a product in one workflow step and then the algorithm will assign specific packaging for the given product. Third, we intend to use the solution to allow vendors to automatically upload their product data into PIM. We haven't completed this, but it is another use case that we are working on. We also have plans down the line to move data from MDM and PIM into GCP to do more analysis on the PIM data. This will include using the data in the BigQuery environment and combining it with point of sales data and demographic data, with the goal of increasing sales.
What is master data? Master data is the crucial, all-important data that all businesses rely on to function on a regular, day-to-day basis. It is the core data at the heart of the business process and describes the relationship of the environment and how it relates to the complete business process. Master data encompasses all the data used throughout the entire business process life cycle. It can include - but is not limited to - such relationship processes as: clients (both internal...
