With the help of Caserta Concepts a 100
year-old global firm with offices in Asia,
Europe, America and Australia successfully addressed its daunting data challenges.
After going public two years ago,
and for the first time in the company’s
history, there was an absolute need for
holistic reporting drawn from data that
resided in silos in each market. Caserta
Concepts built a solution on the cloud
The ascent of trends like
cloud and internet of things
(IoT) has changed the
ecosystem of ERP solutions
that would integrate information from all
of the company’s SAP instances across
the globe. It enabled the client to assess
how each business area was implemented,
and to extract and consolidate data
for a 360 degree view of operations.
“The service was available through a
completely automated system, making
the data 100 percent credible, reliable,
and consistent,” says Joe. Caserta
Concepts also leveraged the power of
Hadoop, NoSQL Databases, and open
source technologies for data integration,
allowing the company to process data of
all sizes. The solutions Caserta Concepts
developed were modeled in their own
innovation lab and built entirely on the
cloud.
Over the past few years Caserta
Concepts has experienced exponential
growth, a testimony to its evolution
from a pure technology company to a
data innovation firm. “We are planning
to introduce never before seen solutions
highly tailored to individual businesses,
unlike the repeatable tools that dominate
the industry today,” says Joe. He also
believes that keeping close to SAP is
very important for Caserta Concepts. As
new technologies like IoT, sensors, and
other data devices evolve, it is highly
likely that SAP will undergo an evolution
of its own. Caserta Concepts intends to
be actively involved with the SAP ERP
ecosystem while continually enhancing
its analytic capabilities.
