In this moment, excerpted from the Partners Ecosystem Digital Event held on April 20, Aaron Back discusses artificial intelligence (AI), data, and enterprise IT applications with Ardjan Baan, CEO of Vanenburg, an IT service provider that modernizes enterprise IT.
Highlights
00:08 — Baan points out that AI is a hot topic right now, especially in the context of enterprise IT.
00:20 — AI is driving a lot of activity in the consumer field; however, if you apply the context of enterprise IT, that’s where Vanenburg’s capabilities around data and AI come into play.
00:42 — When data and AI are working together, Vanenburg can really add value for customers. It partners with Google Cloud, which Baan says is the leading player, especially in the field of data. Google Cloud has rich functionality when it comes to data engineering, collecting data from different data sources, and then harmonizing that data and turning it into intelligence.
01:07 — Vanenburg is leveraging core technologies from the Vertex AI platform from Google Cloud to transform data that is taken out of silos of the enterprise applications and then enable a correlation of that data. For example, in the field of logistics, if you can use the data to detect bottlenecks in the supply chain and then have that intelligence turned into business-driven decisions about how you should buy, or handle forecasting or pricing, that’s adding value to the enterprise.
