News Summary
Utilities accumulate a wealth of data that can be used to optimize capital investments, improve customer satisfaction, maintain and enhance reliability and safety, and drive operational efficiencies. Yet Oracle's recent study of senior utility executives showed that only 20 percent of utilities say they are doing an excellent job in putting timely information into the hands of people who need it most. To help utilities become more information-driven, Oracle has released Oracle Utilities Data Model, a new industry-specific data warehousing and Big Data solution.
