Decision Data Model™
Fully aggregated, harmonized data from across your enterprise
The Aera Decision Data Model (DDM) is designed to drastically reduce the time and effort spent on data wrangling. This innovative approach provides fully aggregated, harmonized, and labeled datasets, available right down to the transaction level for training models. Data available via the DDM is automatically refreshed in near-real-time – made possible by Aera’s patented Data Crawler technology and internet-scale data architecture.
Every decision made in Aera Decision Cloud is recorded in the DDM, along with the context in which the decision was made, a record of actions taken, and the resulting outcome. This complete audit trail enables real-time monitoring of decisions across your enterprise. It also forms the foundation for Aera’s learning capabilities, enabling Aera Skills to improve with each user interaction and adapt to your ever-changing business environment.
