At Hitachi Vantara, our mission is to help customers extract all the value of their data through our DataOps methodology, which helps them achieve tangible outcomes that positively drive business and society forward. One field where we’re making advances – which also strikes a personal chord with me, given my background as a biomedical engineer – is in the field of cardiovascular medicine. Specifically, I’m referring to our work with the American Heart Association (AHA).

Michael Tschanz, Director of Technology and Analysis, Design and Engineering Technology and Analysis at Disney Parks, Experiences and Products Today, Hitachi Vantara announced that we have become the Official Ride and Show Analytics provider of the Walt Disney World® Resort and the Disneyland® Resort. Working together, we will bring new levels of efficiency to attractions while enhancing the guest experience at both locations.

Just two weeks ago, I shared the exciting news that Hitachi Vantara and Hitachi Consulting will unite in January to accelerate digital value creation for our customers and partners and unlock new synergies across the greater Hitachi Group. The news has been incredibly well received and we are excited by the positive response the announcement has generated around the world.

Over the past several weeks, the term DataOps has reverberated throughout the walls of Hitachi Vantara offices around the world and soon it will take the spotlight at NEXT 2019, the world’s first smart conference. We’ve defined DataOps and how its changing the game by putting the right data into the hands of teams, when and where they need it most. We’ve also talked about Hitachi Vantara’s DataOps journey, Project Champagne.
