Data migration and management capabilities are essential to moving customers into a cloud environment and maximizing the value of their solutions. What data is migrated, how it is structured, and how a business maintains the integrity of that data is a complex endeavor. Since 2022, Infor has partnered with Albanero to make their data migration and data management capabilities available to Infor customers.
數據遷移和管理能力對於將客戶移入雲環境並最大化其解決方案的價值至關重要。遷移哪些數據,如何構建它以及企業如何保持該數據的完整性都是複雜的事務。自2022年以來,Infor與Albanero合作,使其數據遷移和數據管理能力可供Infor客戶使用。
Data migration typically involves bringing data from multiple systems into the cloud environment. Albanero's established data mesh platform is currently available to customers that are harmonizing, migrating, and governing Data as a Service across Infor's industry CloudSuite solutions and from external source systems such as SAP, Oracle, Salesforce, Sage, and NetSuite. With the intent to embed the Data Mesh platform capabilities within Infor OS, the industry cloud platform, Infor customers will have a consolidated enterprise view of a company's data that is unmatched in the market today. Generally cost-prohibitive for midmarket customers, this union of capabilities will allow them to leverage technologies and capabilities such as GenAI on top of an unparalleled data foundation to advance their business differentiation.
數據遷移通常涉及將來自多個系統的數據帶入雲環境中。 Albanero的成熟數據網格平台目前可用於將數據作爲服務在Infor的行業CloudSuite解決方案中進行協調,遷移和管理,以及來自諸如SAP,Oracle,Salesforce,Sage和NetSuite等外部源系統。打算將數據網格平台的功能嵌入Infor OS,即行業雲平台,Infor客戶將擁有一個在今天市場上無與倫比的公司數據的綜合企業視圖。這種能力對於中型市場客戶來說普遍具有成本限制,但這種能力的結合將使他們能夠利用諸如GenAI等技術和能力,從而在無與倫比的數據基礎之上推進業務差異化。
Albanero's established data migration services and API connector is currently available for customers adopting Infor's CloudSuite for Food & Beverage, Fashion and Distribution industries. Work is already in progress to fast-track these same services and capabilities for Infor customers across industries.
目前,Albanero成熟的數據遷移服務和API連接器可供採用Infor CloudSuite行業雲解決方案的食品和飲料,時裝和分銷行業的客戶使用。我們已經在加快爲各行業的Infor客戶提供相同服務和能力的工作。
"We are thrilled to become part of the Infor family. This union represents a significant milestone for both companies, combining our innovative data mesh capabilities with Infor's extensive industry expertise," says Bruce Douglas, Founder and CEO of Albanero. "Together, we are poised to deliver unparalleled data management solutions that will empower businesses to harness the full potential of their data. We look forward to a future of shared success and innovation."
"我們很高興成爲Infor大家庭的一部分。這一聯盟對於兩家公司都具有重大意義,將我們的創新數據網格能力與Infor廣泛的行業專業知識相結合," Albanero的創始人兼首席執行官Bruce Douglas說。"我們將共同提供無與倫比的數據管理解決方案,讓企業能夠利用其數據的全部潛力。我們期待共享成功和創新的未來。"
"Cloud technologies have enabled Albanero to innovate in how data is managed," explains Manish Sharma, Founder and CTO of Albanero. "We are excited to provide Infor customers with a decentralized data mesh solution that puts the power of their data back into their business. This technological leap has addressed many of the challenges associated with centralized data management by empowering data owners at the source. We look forward to leveraging the extensive technological capabilities of Infor and Koch to expand our market reach."
"雲技術使Albanero在數據管理方面創新," Albanero的創始人兼首席技術官Manish Sharma解釋道。"我們很高興爲Infor客戶提供分散的數據網格解決方案,讓他們重新掌握自己的數據。這種技術上的飛躍通過賦予數據所有者的源頭授權,已經解決了中央化數據管理的許多挑戰。我們期待利用Infor和Koch的廣泛技術能力擴大我們的市場覆蓋."
