Case Study: Festo accelerates GenAI-powered data access with Denodo Platform

Festo serves 300,000 customers with Denodo for governed GenAI data access

Festo, a leading provider of factory automation solutions, faced challenges in integrating its structured and unstructured internal data into new generative AI applications like FestoGPT. Issues included data governance, security concerns, and the ineffective conversion of relational data for use with large language models. To overcome these hurdles, Festo turned to the Denodo Platform from Denodo Technologies.

Using Denodo's metadata-driven approach and AI SDK, Festo connected its AI applications to data source systems through a single API, eliminating data replication and ensuring strict access controls. This solution from Denodo accelerated the development of Festo's AI initiatives, simplified data access for non-technical users, and improved semantic accuracy. The results included improved sales performance reporting, efficient data sharing, and a single interface for client-facing staff to access critical product and project information.
