For many businesses, demand planning is essential. Profitability, cash flow, and customer satisfaction and retention all hinge on getting this right. This white paper will introduce latent matrix factorization to model demand curves and discuss how it can be used to achieve these outcomes.

Fast unobstructed access to data and time to insight matters more now than ever. In these quickly changing times, businesses must innovate and implement a ‘Stack of the Future’ to be able to make accurate, data-driven decisions in minutes, not hours or days. The potential value of data is well known but in the new environment, the ability to easily share and collaborate on data is a competitive differentiator that will be leveraged by forward-thinking companies

During times of crisis, companies must look at the available data — both internal and external— and try to understand how that data can be used to determine how the business is currently being impacted, how it is likely to be affected in the future, what are most likely scenarios that will play out, what can be done to counter those scenarios and take advantage of hidden opportunities in this rapidly changing environment. The Starschema COVID-19 dataset ingests reliable data from multiple sources and makes it analytics-ready so it can be easily accessed and used.

During this time of crisis, everyone is searching for answers. Governments, healthcare institutions, non-governmental organizations, and businesses large and small urgently need to make decisions about their future. We believe they should be armed with accurate, easily accessible, analytics-ready data. That’s why we collated, curated, and unified the most credible and reliable public data sets into a single source of truth data set.

With Tableau’s Disaster Recovery method, large deployments can take 10+ hours to backup and same to restore. Even if you back up daily like you should, if disaster strikes you’ll lose a full day of productivity, and a full day of data. Palette Rescue ensures that your users are never interrupted by a server crash.

Machine Learning models can be so complex that they seem like a magical black box with inputs and outputs, but little understanding of how the outputs are derived. In this white paper,

Eszter Windhager-Pokol, Starschema head of data science, explains the concept of interpretability and several methods to address the problems posed by black box models.

Our client, a Fortune 100 company spanning multiple industries, operates a Tableau environment with thousands of users. To ensure optimum performance and provide great user experience, the client needed to gain a deep understanding of how their Tableau Server resources were being utilized.

When large organizations merge or divest, then new entity has business transformation thrust upon it. Our client, a power generation manufacturer, divested from a larger organization to become a brand-new company. With the looming deadline of a cut-over from the existing data platform, the client engaged Starschema to validate and test the existing technology stack and determine the best way to move forward.

Producing high-value, high-volume pharmaceuticals on a 24/7 operational schedule means that breakdowns are time-consuming, interrupt production and are often extremely costly. Fortunately, data scientists and manufacturing specialists can examine production lines to determine what data can be used to predict future failures and how to best collect it.

Palette Trust automatically polls Tableau Server for internal process statuses and creates notifications based on predefined rules. No more automated messages sent through distribution lists to interrupt and be ignored.

Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT) can be a life-saving therapeutic option. However, the intervention itself has considerable risks, carries significant expense and its benefits to heart failure patients are limited to a small group of suitable patients, making patient selection critical. The right algorithm can determine patient selection criteria to identify patients most likely to benefit from CRT and least likely to suffer pre-operative or post-operative complications.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) artifacts, distortions or false signals that affect image quality, may adversely affect diagnostic quality, resulting in potential diagnostic errors and the need for costly and time consuming repeat examinations that may delay timely treatment. Detecting these artifacts with convolutional neural networks can save costs and improve outcomes.

As humans, we think and communicate in narratives. Numbers and visualizations help, but taken on their own, they often don’t tell the full story. A good dashboard may be useful for showing trends and conveying metrics, but it’s words that resonate with decision-makers and provide them with important context and situational awareness

At the heart of data driven organizations lies the concept of data democratization: making data more accessible to everyone and making it easier to share, discuss, and act upon. Data visualization tools like Tableau help companies view, understand and leverage their data to make better decisions about their business.
