In a nutshell
We believe that new (data) technology and techniques will help us in better serving our customers. Therefore we invest in a cloud based Intelligence Infrastructure with a Data lake at its core. Also, machine learning and advanced analytics models are seen as key tools. In the Data lake you get the freedom to develop and test your data streams, publication sets, models, based on streams of data that arrive automatically. Both linear and logistic models and the more complex neural networks can be applied, as long as these models can be brought into production and deliver added value to the customer. Here’s a little taste of your challenge…
