AI Fabric As A Living Enterprise Model
- An AI Fabric harmonizes enterprise data and embeds AI into a single universal model across systems.
- This living model lets agents read, write, and act as a central system of intelligence for operations.
Govern Agents With A Central Platform
- Do deploy agents on a governed platform with monitoring, auditability, and evaluation before scaling beyond POCs.
- Avoid unmanaged agent sprawl by centralizing control to ensure safety, cost efficiency, and trust.
Generative AI Lowers The Data Barrier
- Generative AI lets non-technical users interrogate data via natural language and iterative conversation.
- This lowers barriers and speeds decision-making when tied to a unified enterprise model like a knowledge graph.
