They will gather data from different parts of an organisation’s operations, including manufacturing processes, supply chains and other relevant systems. Together, AVEVA Connect and Microsoft Fabric can help to create the “complete data analytics platform for the era of AI”, according to AVEVA. Organisations can access their complete data estate to gain insights that will empower teams and transform business.
