Make Data Composable

A private cloud high-volume Data Vault is a business-critical data infrastructure component that de-couples data from its native applications, applies extract-transform-and-load and qualitative treatments, and establishes a coherent data architecture. 

Our Data Vault is designed to be ultra-secure for business-critical data management.  It provides a single-version-of-the truth by federating data assimilated from multiple data sources for reprocessing or reinterpretation for another purpose, such as business intelligence. Use it to drive data decisions through the democratization of data insights.

Let Data Be Your Guide

Experience the power to lead, measure and make decisions across your enterprise

Create a business strategy and you will always encounter new lead and lag indicators that need to be measured to steer your course.  Additionally, it’s not uncommon for improvement initiatives to dictate the production of new processes and applications to support them.  With our Data Fabric mart layer, you won’t need a room filled with technicians to build and deploy the apps you need.  All it takes is one creative mind, and Encanvas.

Leverage Your Data Advantage

Disparate data silos across an organization and its third-party network create inefficiencies, hinder insights, and expose vulnerabilities. A unified approach is crucial to unlock true data value. 

Benefits include:

1. Break Down Silos, Build a Single Source of Truth

A 2023 study by Experian found that 52% of companies struggle with data silos, hindering decision-making and costing an average of $1.76 million annually. Our private cloud Data Vault federates data from all sources, creating a single, trusted version of truth. This improves data-driven decision-making, eliminates redundant information, and boosts collaboration.

2. Safeguard Your Data Assets:

IBM’s 2023 Cost of a Data Breach Report estimates the average cost at $4.35 million per incident.  our private cloud environment offers superior control and security compared to public clouds. Advanced access controls, encryption, and threat detection minimize cyber-attack risks and ensure compliance with regulations like GDPR and HIPAA.

3. Set Free the Power of Data Composability

Gartner predicts that “by 2024, organizations that effectively implement composable business architecture will achieve 20% faster time-to-market compared to competitors.” By storing data in a modular, reusable format, our private cloud structured Data Vault makes it easy to compose data sets for diverse needs. Stakeholders across departments can quickly access and combine data for personalized insights, driving innovation and agility.

4. Maximize Data Reuse and Value

McKinsey Global Institute reports that only 5% of the world’s data is analyzed and used, indicating massive untapped potential.The data hub centralizes and democratizes data access. Businesses can reuse data for diverse analytics, build AI models, and create data-driven products, maximizing its value across the organization.

Integration

Encanvas Data Hub makes data analysis and reporting easier and more powerful. Use the latest tools and industry best practices to help people who work with data shine.

Hyper-Drive Plug-In

Our versatile Plug-In means that almost any type of Ajax data visualization or Artificial Intelligence algorithm can be painlessly integrated into your existing or new business processes without major development overheads. It makes the very latest technology innovations available to businesses in an affordable way.

DLL Data Connector

Our DLL data connector makes it easy to seamlessly embed custom DLLs into Encanvas. It enables designers to specify parameters for the DLL being connected. This means any intellectual property associated with a DLL is also protected.

Third-Party Applications

If your organization has invested in third-party business software to run its business processes or perform key tasks such as geospatial intelligence, reporting and dashboarding, there’s no need to start again. With Encanvas, it’s possible to get the best of edge and cloud computing without needing to replace legacy systems and useful tools. There are a number of ways to integrate Encanvas with third-party applications.

Integration with Microsoft Office and 365

Within its .NET environment, Microsoft has established formal programmatic mechanisms to integrate between its components that can be summarized as ‘Microsoft Interop’. Encanvas employs a data connector for Microsoft Interop components to enable close integration with Microsoft .NET components. Microsoft employs interop standards to integrate with its core Microsoft Office features and systems. Use of the Encanvas data connector for Microsoft Interop enables developers to build close integrations between Encanvas and MS Outlook email, Microsoft Project and other Microsoft Office components.

Creating Custom Code

Encanvas offers a Custom Code Windows design element that enables C# software programmers to bring further enhancement to applications produced using Encanvas by custom coding. The Custom Code Window means that programmers can write code directly into our digital document design tools, or simply paste sections of code from their native development environment (such as Microsoft Visual Studio). The existence of a custom coding capability enables programmers to leverage existing source code and provides the optimal extensibility for custom applications developments.

Creating Custom Script

In a Rich Internet web portal environment, applications designers can customize their applications using the Custom Script Window of Encanvas. It enables developers to use JavaScript or HTML custom scripting to enhance the user experience, add ready-to-use components and adapt templates available from third party sources.

Facilitating Asset Reuse

Encanvas is designed to be object-oriented at multiple levels so that applications designers can use the same collection of components time and again.  It also includes a series of features to encourage the reuse of source code and technical components.

Integration with Mapping Platforms

Traditional methods of capturing and presenting geospatial information have been very complex and demanded specialist expertise. It’s not uncommon for organizations to employ dedicated experts on GIS. With its powerful data aggregation, filtering and discovery features Encanvas takes geo-spatial intelligence a step further. Not only can you integrate Encanvas with most third-party mapping platforms, it also includes its own powerful GIS engine.

Codeless Data Connectors

Encanvas offers a vast array of data connection possibilities with its portfolio of data connectors and software bots.
