Introducing Workflows: The New Feature in Hitachi Solutions Empower Data Platform
2 minute read
We are thrilled to announce the launch of a much-anticipated feature in the Hitachi Solutions Empower Data Platform: Workflows! This powerful addition allows users to create custom, end-to-end data pipelines with unprecedented ease and visibility.
The Hitachi Solutions Empower Data Platform centralizes all your varied data sources inside a week, enabling you to get the analytics you need to elevate your business. Data is at the heart of every company, regardless of size or industry. The challenge often lies in consolidating disparate, industry-specific data sources into a manageable location for analytical insights inside a week. And it’s only getting better with Empower Workflows.
What are Workflows?
Workflows enable you to design comprehensive data movement pipelines through a user-friendly interface within the Empower platform. By chaining together your previously created Data Flows, you can build customized, end-to-end data workflows tailored to your specific needs.
Daisy-chain data acquisition, data transformation, and data publishing with an end-2-end configuration experience from the new Workflows module in the Empower UI. Set up your pipelines within minutes, and schedule them to run whenever you want, or even trigger them on demand.
Key Features of Workflows:
- User-Friendly: Design and manage your own data pipelines without relying on external support.
- Fast: The simple-to-use interface and modular, reusable Data Flows make full pipeline creation faster than ever.
- Transparent: Full visibility into data movement eliminates the “black-box” problem common in most custom approaches.
Why Use Workflows?
Managing a data estate is no easy feat, especially when it comes to data movement orchestration. Workflows were created with the goal of making and managing customized data movement pipelines as easy, fast, and transparent as possible, while still being incredibly flexible and robust.
Benefits of Workflows:
- Ease of Use: Users can design and manage data pipelines without needing external support.
- Speed: The intuitive interface and reusable Data Flows expedite the creation of full pipelines.
- Transparency: Gain full visibility into data movements, understanding what data is moving, where, and when.
To effectively use Workflows, it’s important to have a solid understanding of Data Flows. We highly recommend reviewing our Empower Basics Docs for detailed information on the different types of Data Flows and their crucial role in creating Workflows.
