The Challenge
Micron struggled to prepare and extract manufacturing big data from 12 separate sites in quickly enough time to produce meaningful, timely, and company-wide business intelligence. Many sites were self-serving and trying to access OLTP data directly, resulting in redundant processes, resource inefficiency, and data integration and performance issues. The data warehousing and analytics solutions developed were not able to keep up with the needs of the business.
