mcube™ – powered Data Lakehouse
The AI & analytics foundation for all data types I Powerful semantics for better contextualization

Most IT and business leaders are traversing the maturity path of leveraging data to its fullest potential, and in that process they have envisioned a fully automated and governed data platform for their enterprise —one that provides a single version of the truth, is scalable, seamlessly integrates with existing infrastructure, and builds a strong foundation for AI capabilities on top.

Yet, the reality is far from this vision. Wondering Why?

  • You have 5-8 tools that you are managing for different data types and sources, with many vendors to manage.
  • This fragmentation is costly, not only in terms of licensing and system integration but also in the effort and time required to make these tools work together.
  • Some of your proprietary data is still stored in legacy systems, which are not interoperable.
  • Your data lake initiatives, which were meant to solve these issues, often balloon into high-cost, year-long initiatives without delivering the promised agility.
  • Your business leaders want advanced AI capabilities for process transformation, while the data layer is still not in shape to support that.

So what does it take to simplify this complexity?

A unified data and AI platform with end-to-end functionality to ingest, integrate, analyze, model, and report on data providing full transparency with regards to process and semantic context (knowledge graphs). One that is modular and highly interoperable, providing investment protection for existing systems and assets through loose coupling and micro-services architecture.

Read about how mcube™ empowered ADMA Biologics with manufacturing excellence leading to an increase in market capitalization With the successful launch of mcube™ 5.1, this latest version builds on the achievements of its predecessors and continues to push boundaries – from advanced AI capabilities, enhanced semantic search for deeper data contextualization and intuitive insights, robust data operations, to low/no-code BI and analytical application modules empowering even business users to create, manage, and deploy AI workflows. mcube™ 5.1 is designed to make your enterprise smarter and more agile.

Unleashing mcube™ 5.1 – Precision Meets Performance!

The most iconic feature expansion has been integrating ‘Semantic Discovery’ that integrates AI, ontologies, and semantic modeling for deeper data contextualization and reasoning for that uber-intuitive and hyper-precision experience. This helps our clients build their own Semantic Discovery Platform for querying, reporting, and exploration and convert any volume or type of unstructured data into actionable knowledge. The semantic search functionality stands on the following pillars:

  • Knowledge Graph Inference Combined with Generative AI and RAG (retrieval augmented generation)
  • Ontology-Driven AI Search
  • FAIRification of Data: supports the FAIR principles (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) for data management.

This initiative is now global, with its journey beginning in India. To mark this milestone, DFB, TCG Digital, FC Ingolstadt 04, and TSG Hoffenheim came together for an exclusive press conference at the Constitution Club, New Delhi on 20th March.

Powered by mcube, the lab brings advanced capabilities that enables immersive fan experience and data-driven talent scouting.

Watch the clip below to see how sports intelligence is changing the game.

Pro Tip: Saved Searches in BI

Did you know you can significantly enhance your dashboard efficiency and focus by leveraging Saved Searches? This feature allows you to pre-define specific filters and column selections for a dataset, creating a reusable view that you can easily add to multiple dashboards or use to customize widgets. Instead of repeatedly applying the same set of filters or selecting the same columns every time you want to analyze a particular aspect of your data, you can create a Saved Search once and then use it as a streamlined data source.

New Feature Spotlight: Predictive Intelligence for your plants with ReliableAI

The ReliableAI demonstration showcases its capability in anomaly incident prediction and corrective measures to mitigate potential failures. Leveraging an agentic framework, it combines supervised and unsupervised models, with an LLM analyzing alert criticality and correlating alerts with operational thresholds. Focused on a specific plant section, it covers High-Pressure (HP) and Differential Pressure (DP) systems, identifying anomalies such as productivity loss, financial loss, opportunity loss, downtime, recurring failures, and repair costs. Its mitigation options include licenser recommendations and OEM recommendations, providing controlled measures to help operators take proactive actions, minimize impact, and prevent failures.

Customer Success Story: ePOD for Smarter Logistics: The Haldia Petrochemicals Story

Haldia Petrochemicals (HPL), one of the largest integrated petrochemical manufacturers, implemented the Electronic Proof of Delivery (ePOD), built on mcube™, to enhance logistics and supply chain management. The solution provides near real-time tracking, automates delivery documentation, and ensures secure blockchain transactions. With ePOD, HPL’s customers can electronically confirm receipt, transporters can submit freight bills, and consignees can report issues directly through the application.

Pro Tip: Get your reports when you need them, not before!

Instead of having reports delivered on a set schedule, wouldn’t it be better if they came right after something important happens, like a data update? You can do just that by setting up your reports to trigger after a specific ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) job completion. This way, you’re always getting the most up-to-date information, exactly when you need it. Learn more about mcube‘s data integration capabilities.
