Tietoevry

My name is Gry Arnesen. I'm head of Data Services in Tietoevry Industry.

Tietoevry is a huge international tech company. We are a specialized business unit within Tietoevry industry, and we have had a role for more than 40 years in the Norwegian market providing data and information to a lot of different segments. And we have had the monopoly situation for many, many years distributing different public data towards the market.

This changed due to a EU directive. We have, of course had a very societal role towards banks, police, health institutions, so we started to work with a new strategy and there's a huge problem, I think both in Norway, in the Nordics, that data could be quite difficult to find and it's also kind of difficult to actually understand and know the quality of the data.

So we decided to actually establish a data catalog and choose the Actian Data Intelligence Platform. There are several benefits with the Actian Data Intelligence Platform, since this will be a open data catalog where we know that there will be used by different customers, different segments, and different profiles, it was really important for us to having a very user friendly interface, and we found that the Actian Data Intelligence Platform was the best actually.

We have learned from a lot of our customers that the Actian Data Intelligence Platform, but also helping them to unlock data from different silos, utilizing and making this catalog available, the customers see new possibilities with the data. Of course, we do have a very focus on the external market and the existing customers. There's also huge interest within the company, within Tietoevry, they also could utilize the platform for making better data products faster.

If I should refer the the Actian Data Intelligence Platform to a friend, I would start to say this is a good way to have control of your data.
