Think back just a few years ago when most enterprises were either planning or just getting started on their cloud journeys. The pandemic hit and, virtually overnight, the need to radically change ways of working pushed those cloud journeys into overdrive. Cost-effective adaptability was essential. And the companies that could scale up or scale down quickly were the ones that navigated the pandemic successfully. Migrating to the cloud made that possible.

Enterprises looking to increase productivity and optimize business processes are increasingly turning to artificial intelligence (AI). AI can meet these expectations—but only with the right enabling technology. Intelligent automation at scale across the organization can offer a strategic approach to incorporating AI into complex business processes.

The potential impact of AI in banking appears boundless. A 2023 McKinsey report found that effectively incorporating generative AI tools into business operations could lead to annual operational savings ranging from $200 billion to $340 billion for the global financial services industry. These cutting-edge technologies can also enhance customer satisfaction, attract more potential customers, and improve employee experience.

As your company grows, so do the challenges of managing user access and data security. For many of us, it’s a common situation – the account that started with a few key players now has multiple users with different access levels. New team members join, roles evolve, team members move on to new opportunities, and sometimes external players (like contractors or clients) need temporary access to your account.

Amazon Web Services (AWS) ETL refers to a cloud-based set of tools and services that help extract data from different sources, make it usable, and store it in a way that makes it easy to analyze and make decisions based on it. AWS ETL tools offer a unique advantage for businesses seeking to streamline their data processes. These tools are efficient, scalable, and adaptable, making them ideal for a wide range of industries, from healthcare and finance to retail and beyond.

A Smartsheet report found that over 40% of workers spend at least a quarter of their workweek manually extracting data. Tax specialists in many organizations spend hours or even days sorting through piles of paper or PDF documents, looking for relevant information, and entering it into spreadsheets or databases. That’s a lot of time and money wasted on a tedious and error-prone process. Fortunately, there is a better way to handle tax form data extraction.

In just a few months, enterprise AI has rapidly evolved into a strategic partner for organizations that want to stay ahead of the disruption curve. Whether enterprises are leveraging predictive analytics for strategic decision-making, using machine learning algorithms for supply chain optimization, or applying generative AI and large language models to enhance customer service, it’s clear AI will help business in many ways.

The editorial team of Hitachi Vantara sat down for an interview with our Chief Product Officer, Octavian Tanase, to learn about his vision and strategy for AI in the enterprise.

Over the course of my career, I’ve had the opportunity to found and lead multiple technology companies with great teams. These companies have redefined their industries and empowered customers to work in different, better ways. At the core of these companies, however, has been a constant mission. A purpose. A north star that guides us over multiple decades.

Authentication and authorization play crucial roles in modern application development. Over the years, the way we implement these security measures has evolved, with protocols like OAuth2/OpenID Connect now being widely used. While web applications can manually implement these protocols, it requires a certain level of expertise. Moreover, when it comes to single-page applications (SPAs), additional measures are necessary to securely manage security tokens on the application side.
