Denodo Partners with BAIC to Usher in a New Era of Data-Driven Automobile Innovation
Mutually beneficial cooperation and win-win outcomes have consistently
been the dominant theme in the collaborative efforts between China and Spain.
Recently, a powerful collaboration focusing on data integration and the automobile
industry kicked off in Madrid. Leaders from Beijing, the Chinese Embassy in Spain,
and other organizations arrived at Denodo’s headquarters in Madrid, Spain,
to attend the signing ceremony between Denodo, a leader in data management,
and BAIC, a backbone enterprise of China’s automobile industry.
Together, they will explore the limitless possibilities of innovation amidst the wave of automobile digitalization.
As we stand at the dawn of the third decade of the 21st century, an unprecedented technological revolution is unfolding, with data capabilities emerging as the core driving force behind the future business landscape of enterprises. In the automobile industry, this transformation is even more dramatic. From groundbreaking advancements in autonomous driving to the widespread adoption of intelligent connected vehicles and the innovation of personalized services, every aspect relies heavily on the deep mining and application of data. Breaking down data silos has become the key determinant of whether a company can stand out in the competitive landscape.
Industry giants join forces to chart the blueprint for digital transformation
For three consecutive years, Denodo has been honored with the “Customers’ Choice” crown in the authoritative Gartner Peer Insights “Voice of the Customer” report on data integration tools. Additionally, it has been named a leader in Gartner’s Magic Quadrant for Data Integration Tools for four years in a row. This achievement not only demonstrates Denodo’s accumulation of technical strength but also reflects the market’s recognition of its solutions.
As a provider capable of achieving real-time integration and delivery across multiple data sources, Denodo significantly enhances the availability and flexibility of enterprise data, empowering businesses with stronger insights for decision-making. Currently, Denodo has covered over 1,000 customers, including numerous Fortune Global 500 and Global 2000 companies. Previously, Denodo also partnered with two giants in the cloud service domain (Amazon Web Services and Alibaba Cloud) to jointly push the boundaries of cloud-based data integration.
Today, Denodo has taken another milestone step by signing a
cooperation agreement with BAIC. As Dr. Ángel Viña, CEO of Denodo,
insightfully remarked, “The signing of this agreement with BAIC is a significant
milestone for Denodo on a global scale. Despite the nearly 10,000 kilometers
separating China and Spain, our goal is clear: to improve data management
practices and achieve data democracy, making it more readily accessible to all
business teams.” According to reports, the two parties will jointly establish a
collaborative laboratory to explore ways to apply data fabric technology in
intelligent manufacturing, artificial intelligence, large language models, and
other fields, promoting the integration of data virtualization technology and
products into BAIC’s unified data foundation. Subsequently, BAIC will further
promote the extensive application of Denodo’s data management software in
digital transformation, platform construction, and cross-border data integration
within the group and its subsidiaries.
Unlocking the multifaceted value of collaboration: Exploring new heights in Automobile industry data potential
According to predictions from authoritative organizations, by 2030, 95% of vehicles on the road will be connected cars. Each automobile is expected to generate 25 GB of data per hour, equivalent to the amount of data required to play 578 hours of music. Once we enter the era of connected cars, the challenges for enterprise data management will be immense, and how to fully unleash the value of data may become the top priority.
BAIC is currently undergoing a critical transformation from a traditional automobile manufacturer to a provider of intelligent mobility solutions. The partnership with Denodo will inject new vitality into this transition:
1.1.Efficiency boost and cost optimization: Leveraging Denodo’s data virtualization technology and unified data architecture, BAIC’s business teams can reduce redundancy during data movement and transfer processes. This enables them to access and analyze data in real-time with greater ease, significantly improving operational efficiency and reducing costs.
2. Product innovation and personalized services: By leveraging Denodo, BAIC can integrate data from multiple sources to gain deep insights into customer needs, drive product innovation, and deliver personalized services, thereby enhancing customer brand loyalty. According to Forrester's research, the Denodo platform helps enterprises reduce data insight time by an average of 83%, which also means that BAIC will gain a competitive edge in the fiercely competitive automobile market.
3. Accelerating intelligent connected cars and autonomous driving: In the exploration of intelligent connected cars and autonomous driving technologies, Denodo’s data processing capabilities for massive sensor data may accelerate the iteration and application deployment of BAIC’s relevant AI technologies.
4. Enhanced compliance and security: Security and compliance cannot be overlooked in the process of data management and analysis. Denodo's centralized data security and governance layer ensures that an enterprise's distributed data environment is automatically secure and compatible. Access control guarantees that users can only obtain authorized data, while any unauthorized data access attempts will be blocked. This not only ensures compliance but also protects the sensitive information of both the enterprise and its users.
Over the past 25 years, Denodo has precisely grasped the
various scenarios and needs of enterprise digital transformation
through the continuous accumulation of mature technologies
and application practices, constantly providing endless momentum.
At the signing ceremony, Ángel Viña also mentioned, “We are
proud to offer the most innovative technology to support our
partners in making more strategic decisions in the automobile
industry.” Today, with the joint efforts of both parties, the deep
integration of the automobile manufacturing industry and big data
technology may be brought into a brand new stage.
Looking ahead: The boundless possibilities of the AI-driven data era
In China, the data market is experiencing a golden era of expansion, driven by the dual forces of favorable policies and surging demand.
Meanwhile, China’s automobile industry is also experiencing an accelerated period of digital transformation, continuously progressing towards intelligent and personalized solutions.
