Software AG presenta la nueva generación de soluciones de analítica y visualización de negocio

SoftwareAG ha presentado la disponibilidad de MashZone NextGen Business Analytics, basada en Presto, que surgió de la adquisición de JackBe y que sustituye al original MashZone de Software AG. Incluye una funcionalidad adicional que permite a los usuarios crear interactivas y potentes visualizaciones de la información, compartir cuadros resumen y conocimiento con la posibilidad de verlos en cualquier dispositivo.
La capacidad para recopilar, supervisar, realizar cuadros resumen, analizar y comprender un flujo de información que se mueve rápidamente es fundamental para cualquier empresa digital. Llevar a cabo una analítica descriptiva, prescriptiva y predictiva o una profunda exploración de la información y visualizar esta inteligencia operativa, supone un avance revolucionario, únicamente disponible en la Digital Business Platform de Software AG. MashZone NextGen comprende un generador de paneles de control basado en HTML5 y una analítica guiada a partir de los cuales los usuarios son capaces de obtener conocimiento empleando visualizaciones a medida o creadas previamente en el marco de la Digital Business Platform.
Giles Nelson, vicepresidente senior de Gestión de Producto de Software AG sostiene que: “Los ejecutivos de operaciones y los analistas de información pueden obtener analítica en tiempo real y una amplia visualización al utilizar MashZone NextGen con Digital Business Platform. Esto les permite trabajar con más exactitud y a una velocidad que ayuda a tomar mejores decisiones en menos tiempo”.
MashZone NextGen se conecta a distintos tipos de fuentes de datos, incluyendo el almacenamiento de información compatible con JDBC, información transmitida en tiempo real de Apama, la información in-memory de Terracotta BigMemory, tablas ARIS, archivos XML, los terminales y servicios web REST y las hojas de cálculo de Microsoft® Excel®. Entre los usos característicos se incluyen: una analítica de autoservicio, analítica in-memory, inteligencia operativa, visualización de la información, conocimiento de la situación y una business intelligence en modo autoservicio. 
Las prestaciones de autoservicio en MashZone NextGen permiten a un usuario profesional crear de forma autónoma cuadros resumen sin depender del apoyo de TI. Esta autonomía se convierte en una ventaja competitiva importante para las empresas que quieren capacitar a sus usuarios para que tomen decisiones con rapidez”, apunta Giles Nelson.
MashZone NextGen es un elemento esencial dentro de la Digital Business Platform de Software AG, un set integrado de potentes tecnologías, capacidades y metodologías para gestionar una transformación digital y remodelar los diseños empresariales que permiten a la compañía extraer el máximo beneficio de la información, preocuparse más por el cliente, estar hiperconectada y ser muy ágil. Digital Business Platform está disponible en la nube, como servicio, on premise o en una configuración híbrida.

VIDEO BPM Case: Why Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport Chose the Appian Platform

William Flowers, VP of IT Services, Dallas/Fort Worth (DFW) International Airport, discusses why DFW selected Appian to eliminate paper, utilize enterprise mobility and get the right data in to the right hands at the right time.  Let's see the video:



DFW is located between the cities of Dallas and Fort Worth, Texas, and is one of the world’s largest international airports in terms of traffic. The airport’s total facility covers roughly 27 square miles, making it larger than New York’s Manhattan Island. As of 2013, DFW ranked fourth globally for airports in terms of aircraft movement and eighth busiest in terms of passenger traffic. DFW reached a major milestone earlier in 2013 by achieving 200 nonstop destination flights moving in and out of its terminals.
Given its size, DFW needed a more efficient and reliable way to manage its myriad of back office operations. DFW mainly used paper-based processes, requiring the physical transportation of forms and files across the facility. Appian Cloud creates more modern and efficient ways to conduct business, while also supporting the airport’s goal of reducing paper consumption by 50 percent. Through process automation Appian gives DFW greater agility in its operations, while Appian’s native mobile apps give employees better access to enterprise processes and data.
Appian Cloud provides us with smart and efficient business solutions that support our corporate goals of increasing efficiency and agility across our operations,” said William Flowers, DFW Vice President of Information and Technology Services. “The power of the platform, coupled with the speed and cost benefits of cloud delivery, provides our airport with the solutions we need for our process modernization efforts.
Appian’s unique capabilities will connect 2,000 DFW employees across all staff levels with enterprise data, processes, and social collaboration throughout the organization. DFW chose cloud delivery to accelerate the development and deployment of its modern process solutions.
DFW’s Appian program exemplifies how modern BPM can unite the largest of organizations to operate and react to change more quickly and effectively,” said Matt Calkins, president and CEO of Appian.Using Appian Cloud, DFW has a single platform for the rapid rollout of modern business solutions across the organization.”
