Organizations today need to understand every aspect of their business — whether that’s people, raw materials, equipment, logistics, or customers.

Build Your Command Center Using Fivetran and SingleStore

In modern times, a complete view of the entire business on a digital platform aids in remote monitoring and operations control. Important KPIs and real-time insights on performance and efficiency can help in timely and informed decision making — not only saving costs, but also empowering organizations to stay ahead of the competition.

Any organization trying to have a centralized command and control center needs to integrate various data sources which might have different mechanisms for integration, different data formats or various other factors. These data sources can be right from IoT systems, relational databases, ERPs, CRMs, SAPs, etc. and data can be in relational, JSON, time-series, key value, vectors or in geospatial formats. That means we need systems to handle all data, and do it at low latency. 

Some of the challenges that you may face while building command centers include:

  1. Funding. Establishing and maintaining a command center can be costly, and securing funding can be a challenge.
  2. Staffing. It can be difficult to find and retain qualified staff to work on building command centers who can handle systems with different integration needs and data types.
  3. Coordination. Command centers may need to coordinate with a wide range of stakeholders. This can be challenging, especially in the event of a large-scale emergency.
  4. Technology. Command centers rely on advanced communication and information systems, which can be expensive to purchase and maintain. Keeping these systems up to date and ensuring that staff are trained to use them effectively can be a challenge.
  5. Legal and regulatory issues. As command centers handle various types of data, they may be subject to a variety of legal and regulatory requirements,

  • Universal connectivity. The ability to connect to all the data sources the organization has using out of the box connectors.
  • Comprehensive data management. Support for storage and processing of various data types (relational, JSON, time-series, geospatial, vectors, etc.) within one solution.
  • Fast dashboards. A real-time view of the organization. To enable that, we need to have dashboards backed by an ultra fast data storage layer — with the ability to produce sub-second query response times.
  • Intelligent search and retrieval (gen AI). The ability to  enhance information retrieval from databases, making it easier for personnel to find relevant documents, reports, and historical data.
  • Intuitive analysis.  Intuitive, user-friendly tools for data visualization that allow you to build your KPIs and metrics for targeted action, and create linked views and dashboards for dynamic drill-down analysis.
  • Actionable insights.  Live alerts and integration with external systems guiding actions for users to  collaborate and communicate in real time. This includes responsive UI, fully customizable interface and extensibility to meet client-specific requirements.

The powerful combination of Fivetran and SingleStore delivers unparalleled capabilities to meet the diverse needs of modern organizations.
