Data Engineering Use Cases Cloud Data Connect

Product categories such as Analytics, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Business Intelligence, Data Science, and dozens of others have emerged around the unleashing of data as a competitive advantage. There are seemingly endless products available in each category.

Yet, very little attention is paid to the actual data content that serves as the foundation of these applications, including data preparation, data availability, ease of access, data completeness, data accuracy, data consistency, data usability, elimination of data redundancy, and fitness of purpose.

We have built an easy-to-use, Cloud-based Data Engineering Platform to help with all of these things: Interzoid Cloud Data Connect

It is a 100% Web application that you can easily connect to Cloud data platforms such as AWS Aurora/RDS, Azure SQL, Snowflake, Google Cloud SQL, SkySQL, CockroachDB, and other Postgres, SQL Server, and MySQL-based systems to quickly and easily "engineer" your Cloud databases.

Here are some use cases where this can be beneficial:

This provides maximum effectiveness for their product offerings and better results for their customers.

- A Financial Institution was able to match customers across different lines of business and their respective customer databases through name and address matching algorithms, enabling them through a single customer view to identify valuable customers with accounts across different lines of business, and also those who do not and are prime candidates for multiple products through specific profile targeting.

- A Healthcare Product Company was able to enrich a customer database with third-party geographic data to build better profiles and identify customer clusters and their attributes.
