📅 A new version of the Oracle Database is upon us. Dubbed Database 23ai, it highlights AI, more specifically how to connect it to data, of various types and models. We wrote a substantial piece on this latest long-term support, which sunsets the use of 'c' and replaces it with 'ai'. We take it to mean that the era of 'ai' has well and truly begun, and has replaced (or should we say, augmented) the era of cloud. Read all about Oracle Database 23ai in the story below 👇 #database23ai #artificialintelligence #techzine

As you think about the interactions with Excel over the last few decades, Satya Nadella lays out the vision for Agentic disrupting the workflow applications that many Enterprise SaaS platforms deliver. Much like multi-cloud, Enterprise organization/s will have to place their bets on selecting platforms for their respective functional areas. I foresee strong adoption in improving Operational areas in Back office finance, Driving omnichannel customer experience, and unleashing new capabilities in SDLC. https://lnkd.in/ewnJ-jSx

A great piece on how A.I. driven solutions can be leveraged in supply chain, manufacturing, and operations to unlock efficiencies and create resilience: - Move quickly to scope, define, and act - Select well-defined high-value use cases that your teams can solve with experts - Take advantage of "all of your data" with digital twins and let intelligence do the work for you (but keep humans in the loop) - Look to streamline and automate complex tasks in planning, prioritization, - Ensure the use cases and solutions are adopted, iterated on, and improved #supplychain #artificialintelligence #digitaltransformation #digitatwins #manufacturing
