Description

Harnessing the Interplay Between Data and Generative AI


This IDC Perspective covers the symbiotic relationship between data and generative AI. It includes data strategy for GenAI, evolving data architecture and key architecture decisions for GenAI like use of synthetic data, automated data pipelines, ETL for LLM applications, use of vector databases, RAG architecture, and prompt libraries. It also provides guidance for building an actionable data strategy for GenAI."Generative AI (GenAI) is changing the rules of the game for almost every industry. As organizations embark on their GenAI journey, they need high-quality data sets to tune their base foundation models for domain relevance and accuracy or use GenAI and modern data architecture to lock insights. Hence creating an appropriate data strategy is a prerequisite for building and deploying a successful GenAI application," says Ritu Jyoti, group vice president, Worldwide Artificial Intelligence and Automation research at IDC. "Without a data strategy for GenAI, an organization's efforts will be greater than necessary, risks will be magnified, and chances of success will be reduced."

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
