Quest Unveils Next-Generation Data Intelligence and Modeling Solutions Demanded by AI Applications
August 27 2024 - 6:00AM
Quest Software, a global leader in systems management, data
protection, and security software, today released the newest
iterations of erwin Data Intelligence and erwin Data Modeler, with
advanced data intelligence, quality and modeling capabilities. The
powerful solutions provide a comprehensive approach to managing,
governing, and leveraging data across complex enterprise
landscapes, ensuring organizations are equipped to meet the
challenges of AI and beyond.
A modern organization's ability to effectively manage data goes
a long way in determining its future —not only to become a leader
in its industry, but to stay in the game at all. As organizations
strive to harness the power of AI and advanced analytics, the
importance of maintaining high-quality, reliable data has never
been more critical.
The 2023 State of Data Intelligence Report highlights data
quality and visibility as top challenges for enterprises. Moreover,
preliminary findings from the 2024 State of Data Intelligence
Report, to be released in October, indicate data quality monitoring
remains a top-three data intelligence-related challenge for
organizations. Without strong data quality, for example, future AI
initiatives will struggle to succeed, and AI’s potential cannot be
fully realized.
Quest’s new release directly addresses these challenges by
cohesively managing the entire data lifecycle. The solutions
integrate cross-platform data observability with advanced data
quality management to provide a seamless experience for data
reliability and governance across the enterprise. As a result,
enterprises maintain a clear and consistent view of their data
architectures, ensuring that data models are not just theoretical
constructs, but are essential, living components of a dynamic,
AI-ready data environment.
"Data is the lifeblood of modern
enterprises, and as AI becomes more ingrained in our business
processes, every enterprise must confront the critical question:
'Is my data AI-ready?'" said Bharath Vasudevan VP of
Product at Quest Software. "The new Quest solutions offer
a comprehensive approach to data management, from modeling to
governance, and empower organizations to unlock the full potential
of their data, ensuring it is accurate, compliant, and optimized
for the advanced insights AI can deliver.”
