XT Modules Compliment Attivio AIE Platform
August 10, 2011
ITBriefing.net tells us, “Attivio Announces XT Modules to Complete the Big Data Picture.” We think Attivio is an interesting company, and these offerings underscore their unique approach.
The company believes businesses must go beyond data aggregation to sophisticated contextual analysis. The new modules augment Attivio’s Active Intelligence Engine (AIE) platform. The article quotes Donald Fienberg, vice president and analyst at a consulting firm opined:
IT leaders must not focus on the obvious issue of volume alone, but equally consider the other elements of velocity, variety and complexity, which Gartner refers to as the broader category of Extreme Information, as well as the key area of access enablement. If they do focus too narrowly, their enterprises will have to make massive reinvestments within a couple of years to address the other dimensions of big data.
The XT Modules aim to help clients to avoid that reinvestment problem by doing it right the first time. The modules include: the AIE Recommendation Engine, which identifies relationships that can be leveraged to increase online buying; the AIE Classification Engine, which automatically categorizes documents; the Cloudera Connectors Package; Individual Hive, HDFS and Hbase Connectors; and the XT Services & Assessment Pack.
Provided they function as promised, these tools should provide a leg up to Attivio’s clients.
