This is a powerful capability in the current context where businesses are trying to digitally stitch together departments to ensure a seamless experience for their customers.
“Most companies have struggled to realize ROI from data lakes and enterprise data warehouse initiatives, and this challenge has been unmasked in the wake of Covid. OpsVeda 9.0 was conceived and built ground-up to tap into these data repositories to uncover and realize value instantaneously,” said Sanjiv Gupta, CEO of OpsVeda. He added, “This marks an important milestone in our ten-year journey to make customer operations immensely agile and profitable through operational intelligence and automation.”

The ability for a power user to launch data discovery and evaluate potential opportunities or disruptions with just a few button clicks, and then apply business rules to further refine the actionable components, greatly enhances speed for our operations,” said Dana Howard, Vice President – Transactional Operations at Centric Brands Inc.
- Integration: Ability to tap into conformed data from data lakes and data warehouses enables instantaneous realization of business objectives. This version also features readymade cloud integration to pull-in logistics information like shipment location, ETA and carrier rates from third-party providers. Traditionally supported RESTful event-based real-time connectors for systems of record such as SAP, Oracle and Salesforce are enhanced.
- Solution Factory: More depth and breadth with 100’s of out-of-the-box storyboards. Existing Solution Packages across planning, sales, supply, inventory, logistics, manufacturing and channel are being expanded.

- Automation Bots: OpsVeda has made investments in RPA to automate the high value insights and autonomous actions prescribed by the OpsVeda solutions. The actions can be carried out in external systems or within OpsVeda. The bots will also play a role enabling quick data integration with little or no IT dependence.
- Platform of Choice: OpsVeda 9.0 heralds the adoption of an open source database. This makes OpsVeda a platform of choice for a broader market beyond the typical ecosystems centered on large technology providers.
“OpsVeda 9.0 has been an amazing opportunity to take our patented data architectures and the foundation of configurability to create a seamless, nimble open platform. With Data API integration capabilities, our customer analysts can pull data from various landscapes in an automated way, build reusable components and discover impactful insights with the power of JUNI,” said Ravi Mandayam, VP Engineering at OpsVeda. “The newly re-engineered platform along with robotic automation will speed digitalization for our customers.” he added.
