Demystifying Cognitive Approaches to Predictive Maintenance: Part 1

McKinsey Global Institute predicts that by 2025 the Internet of Things will generate up to $11 trillion in value to the global economy. As companies compete with exploding volumes of data from sensors, the world of industrial analytics seems dominated by buzzwords rather than large scale implementations.

Productizing Big Data to Create Business Value

This is the third episode in our "Productizing Your Data" webinar series—“Building Data Products for Predictive Maintenance”—featuring cognitive computing veteran Dr.Kirk Borne, Principal Data Scientist Booz Allen Hamilton and Ruban Phukan, Co-Founder and Chief Products and Analytics Officer, DataRPM.

Improving Outcomes for Substance Abuse Treatment

Substance abuse is one of the fastest growing health problems we face today. In this webinar, Sean Gunderson (co-founder at iTether), Joe Corkery (Healthcare Product Management at Google Cloud Platform) and Jikku Venkat (VP of Product for Kinvey at Progress) discuss how mobile can transform addiction treatment and drive better outcomes. 

Deliver Secure SQL Access for Enterprise APIs

Companies typically build numerous internal applications and complex APIs for enterprise data access. These APIs are often engineered for application developers and based on protocols such as REST or SOAP with payloads in XML or JSON.

However, enterprise data teams need to access this data for analytics, which requires standard query capabilities and the ability to surface metadata. As enterprises adopt new analytical and data management tools, a SQL access layer for this data becomes imperative. Many industries such as financial services, healthcare and technology rely on Progress® DataDirect® OpenAccess™ SDK to build a custom ODBC, JDBC, ADO.NET or OLE DB layer on top of their internal APIs and hosted multi-tenant databases.

Watch this on-demand webinar to learn about:

• Use cases for providing SQL access to your enterprise data
• How organizations provide SQL Access to their APIs
• Pitfalls and best practices to building SQL access

Plus—don’t miss our live demo using OpenAccess SDK to provide SQL access for a REST API.
