Data Unification Technology is Increasingly Needed by Companies and Governments, Why?

JAKARTA – In the era where data being a major force, the main challenge faced by individuals and organizations is the integration and understanding of disparate information. The solution to overcome this problem emerged in the form of data unification, a process of integrating data from various sources into a unified platform.

Bachtiar Rifai, CEO of Volantis Technology, a data technology company based in Yogyakarta, which has helped more than 200 corporate organizations in various sectors overcome digital transformation challenges, said that increasingly private companies and governments are increasingly adopting data unification.

“The development of data unification is accelerating along with advances in technology, changes in business and government needs, and increasing awareness about its potential in the future,” said Bachtiar in a release received by the editors on Wednesday (6/5/2024).

There are a number of reasons why the adoption of data unification technology in private companies and governments around the world is accelerating.
First, Bachtiar said that cloud computing is the key to the development of data unification. The cloud enables the development of scalable and cost-effective data unification platforms, providing organizations with a centralized repository for their data. In addition, innovations related to artificial intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) are also growing along with advances in cloud computing.

According to Bachtiar, the convergence of data unification and AI/ML also opens up new opportunities. “Data unification platforms can be the foundation for training AI and ML models, producing more accurate analysis and supporting better decision making. “This is the reason private companies and governments around the world are increasingly willing to learn and adopt data unification,” explained Bachtiar.

Developments in the field of computing that enable real-time data integration are also game changers. In Memory, Event Processing, Message Queues, and data streaming technologies open opportunities for real-time data integration, eliminating delays in data access and analysis.

Bachtiar underlined the importance of data security in data unification. So far, according to him, Volantis Technology has prioritized data governance and security by implementing a strong framework.
“In this context, Volantis Technology’s long experience in providing data unification solutions is the main differentiator,” he said.
