The transformative potential of artificial intelligence (AI) for businesses depends on access to high-quality data. As organizations strive to harness AI’s transformative power, understanding and executing effective data preparation protocols is paramount. The ability to access and fully use corporate data set is a critical determinant of a company’s success in harnessing AI.
How easily can you get your data?
Many organizations prepare data for AI using manual processes such as coding. Those further along the modernization path use ETL or ELT solutions. Precog, an AI-powered data replication (ELT) platform, has fully automated the ETL/ELT process. This involves a few key steps:
- Establishing a connection to an API through specific web requests
- Handling authentication
- Handling pagination
- Interpreting the API’s response to extract and normalize the data (this normalization transforms complex data schemas into a structured SQL format suitable for loading into data warehouses, facilitating BI and ML applications).
- Loading the data into a data warehouse or database.
Precog automates these steps, drastically reducing the time and errors associated with manual coding and significantly enhancing the efficiency of data integration tasks.
Data connectors: all or nothing
Through its platform, Precog offers a suite of connectors encompassing the entire SAP ecosystem and leverages AI and machine learning to streamline the creation of data connectors for every SaaS API. As the only mainstream ELT vendor to fully leverage AI, Precog delivers powerful no-code integrations that require no custom code or ongoing maintenance. It also features native integrations with SAP Datasphere and SAP Analytics Cloud and supports popular data destinations such as Snowflake, Google BigQuery, Redshift, Kafka, Microsoft SQL Server and Postgres.
