Today, the main challenge for companies is no longer simply to have high-performance servers or graphics cards, but to successfully exploit their data, often scattered between different software, servers or online applications. SyncEngine removes these obstacles by combining three essential steps - data discovery, transfer and preparation - in a single solution, offered at no extra cost to VAST Data customers. In concrete terms, SyncEngine acts like a solution that brings order to a chaos of data. It can classify and make searchable billions or even trillions of files, then transfer them quickly and securely to the environments where they will be used. This process, which once might have required several complex and costly tools, now becomes fluid and automated. Companies save time and money, and have data ready for analysis more quickly.
The benefits are numerous. For example, SyncEngine creates a real-time catalog of all an organization's information, whether stored in internal folders or in widely-used applications such as Google Drive, Microsoft SharePoint or Salesforce. It then facilitates the migration of this data from one system to another, with built-in verification to guarantee its integrity. Finally, the software automatically prepares content for use by artificial intelligence tools: text, documents or images can be organized and transformed to feed applications capable of answering complex questions, generating summaries or supporting decision-making. " The future of artificial intelligence belongs to those who know how to exploit all their data, not just part of it", explains Jeff Denworth, co-founder of VAST Data.
