Imagine you’re an inventory manager for a retail business and you need to quickly verify stock levels for an unexpected large order while away from your computer.

This explosive growth, combined with increasing regulatory requirements like GDPR, CCPA, and industry-specific mandates, creates urgent challenges in data management, security, and value creation.
