Delivering AI-based enterprise applications at scale requires a tightly choreographed interaction between the business, IT, and data science organizations to deploy solutions that generate measurable results. Join Rick Shaw, head of C3’s services team, to discuss the critical success factors to deliver value with C3 Applications, including using a methodological approach to identify and prioritize potential use cases and build a use case roadmap; assembling a successful development team; rapidly developing and deploying new applications; and driving change management. Topics include an introduction to C3’s implementation methodology, a case study on building a digital transformation Center of Excellence, and best practices from C3’s deployment experiences with customers globally.

Join C3 product, data science, and engineering leaders and industry peers in a series of engaging and interactive conversations to explore common challenges and priorities and understand the latest offerings across the C3 AI Suite. See demonstrations of the newest and in-development C3 capabilities and use the opportunity to present your most pressing challenges and influence the C3 AI Suite roadmap. Each of the five sessions will focus on one aspect of the C3 AI Suite and is designed to be technically relevant to enterprise architects, developers, data scientists, and enterprise technologists.

Developer Experience

Join Riley Siebel, Director of Developer Experience, and his team for live demonstrations of the C3 Integrated Development Studio. The C3 IDS is currently available to all customers. C3 product managers will showcase elements of all four suites in the C3 IDS, each catering to a specific stage of the develop, release, and operate cycle:

• C3 Data Studio, for creating and exploring C3 Data Models, setting up data integration pipelines from existing systems, and exploring the C3 Type System;
• C3 App Studio, for drag-and-drop components to build an entire application front-end;
• C3 ML Studio, enabling data science teams to centrally manage their notebooks, models, and Ex Machina projects;
• C3 DevOps Studio, providing end-to-end DevOps and release management functions to support the development and deployment of AI-enabled applications.

This session will provide a hands-on opportunity to work with these tools and to interact with the C3’s developer experience design team.

Machine Learning Engineering

Join Jake Whitcomb, Director of Products, and Harry Weppner, Manager of Machine Learning Engineering, and his team to explore the latest offerings, priorities, and challenges they are addressing. These include extending native C3 support for machine vision, OCR, and NLP frameworks like PyTorch, Keras, SpaCy, Tesseract; offering a C3 Type-based and visual approach to enterprise AI model management; building integrations with AutoML tools and related frameworks such as H20.ai; and enhancing how the C3 AI Suite handles transfer learning with minimal developer overhead. See a demo of the just-released C3 ML Pipeline capabilities. Join industry peers to discuss common problems related to data science scalability, security, resource governance, and (re)usability of models in making the transition from small PoCs to enterprise-scale production deployments.

Data Science

Join Henrik Ohlsson, Vice President of Data Science, and Amy Lee, Senior Data Scientist, and the C3 data science team to discuss recent use cases and best practices for solving complex business problems in optimization, predictive maintenance, and fraud detection. The team will share how they leverage the C3 AI Suite to rapidly develop & deploy techniques using deep learning, natural language processing, anomaly detection, and model interpretability to solve challenges across a wide range of industries including finance, aerospace, and manufacturing.

Applications

Join Uma Sandilya, Vice President of Applications Product Management, and his team to get an in-depth look at all the enterprise SaaS applications developed on the C3 AI Suite. C3 product managers will detail each application—C3 Predictive Maintenance, C3 Fraud Detection, C3 Inventory Optimization, C3 Energy Management, C3 Sensor Health, and C3 Customer Insight—and will demonstrate new features in the latest release of the C3 AI Suite. The team will cover several exciting new features, including the ability to customize the inventory optimization algorithm in C3 Inventory Optimization; AI-enabled algorithms in C3 Customer Insight to segment, identify, and prioritize customers for targeted campaigns; and advanced interpretability frameworks to make AI-enabled predictions in C3 Predictive Maintenance more actionable. The team will share insights from production deployments across C3’s global customer base and provide a view into how leading companies globally are realizing significant economic and operational value from C3 Applications.
