    Wall Street is one of the harshest environments when it comes to data volume & velocity.  😅 On a typical day, a trading desk will encounter billions of events and process petabytes of real-time and historical data. 🤯 On a not-so-typical day – if a currency depegs or a shorting opportunity goes viral – these numbers blow up even further. In our latest webinar, Conor Twomey and Mark Palmer discussed the importance of trusting an analytics platform that can handle such large volumes of high-frequency data, with low-latency response, at scale. Watch the full session here: https://lnkd.in/ekA-nzNC

    𝐔𝐧𝐥𝐨𝐜𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐍𝐞𝐱𝐭 𝐄𝐫𝐚 𝐨𝐟 𝐀𝐈 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐄𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐭-𝐃𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐧 𝐀𝐫𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞𝐬 Was really excited to be an expert panelist at the Solace Community event in New York last week alongside esteemed customers and partners from RBC, Millennium and Amazon Web Services (AWS) 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘮𝘦 How event-driven architectures are the next major unlock in AI as we enter the era of Agentic AI 𝘒𝘦𝘺 𝘓𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘴 1) 𝐑𝐞𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐀𝐈 𝐅𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐅𝐮𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐁𝐞𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐝 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐭𝐬 Arthur C. Clarke once said: "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic." Today, interacting with AI still has too much friction. Asking an AI system a question in a prompt will be the "rotary phone" of our generation. Advancements in memory and models, coupled with event-driven architectures, will revolutionize AI interactions. 2) 𝐃𝐚𝐭𝐚-𝐃𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐧 𝐀𝐈: 𝐋𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐏𝐫𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐂𝐨𝐬𝐭𝐬 AI is about delivering the right insights to the right people at the right time. It enables leaders to make increasingly better decisions with a compounding impact over time. Ultimately, AI is about lowering the cost of prediction - companies that adopt an AI-first approach will outperform and replace those that don't. 3) 𝐀𝐈 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐱𝐢𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐲: 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐃𝐚𝐭𝐚 𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐜𝐞 The scale of enterprise AI workloads necessitates running analytics and AI close to the data source. Efficiently handling data's volume, velocity, and variety requires focusing on converting data into knowledge, not just moving it around. As we move forward, embracing event-driven architectures will be key to unlocking AI's full potential, reducing friction, and driving innovation across industries #AI #EventDrivenArchitecture #Leadership #Innovation #Technology #DataStrategy #Partnership

    Several pain points are at the center of every GenAI adoption conversation in capital markets, including latency, costs, and scalability. But there is one concern that tops the rest: Accuracy. In Conor Twomey's recent session at the 'AI in Finance Summit,' he draws from his experience speaking to hundreds of firms about their GenAI strategies.  The majority are cautious about relying on the accuracy of GenAI applications when making business critical decisions.  How high does accuracy rank in your Gen AI priorities? Discover how your firm can leverage GenAI and advanced analytics to enhance the speed and accuracy of decision making by reading our eBook "7 Innovative Trading Apps and 7 Best Practices You Can Steal!":  https://lnkd.in/ejGN2heQ #CapitalMarkets #GenAI #LLMs
