Digital decoupling: Operating at the speed of data

Digital decoupling: Operating at the speed of data 

Traditional approaches to connecting legacy systems have led to tight dependencies and brittle, costly, and hard-to-maintain infrastructure. As a result, companies are exploring new strategies that enable scalability and agility. The challenge is identifying which one does not require any change to core systems, encouraging investment, as it supports better and quicker business decisions.

Companies that have access to more real-time data, data-triggering actions through automation, and more timely insights are uniquely positioned for success. Many decision-makers are thus driven from passive business intelligence (BI), with its reliance on dashboards, towards active intelligence, where real-time, up-to-date information drives better decisions across the entire business.
