MarkLogicFull Story
Challenge
Suffolk Construction is treating data as an asset, to help their customers make complex architectural visions a reality. With the MarkLogic Data Hub Platform, Suffolk is ingesting and harmonizing different types of data to create a 360 view of each project, which improves safety and keeps projects on budget and on time.
We needed a technology that could create that 360 view of our projects, and the MarkLogic Data Hub was really the only option for us.

CIO, Suffolk Construction
Solution
Small oversights or mistakes in construction project planning can result in large multi-million dollar losses. Suffolk is using MarkLogic to rapidly ingest and harmonize their various internal Oracle and Microsoft data silos to provide a 360 degree view of their entire project portfolio and vendor information. They now have immediate access to insights that were previously unattainable.
Result
Fast Data Ingestion
With the MarkLogic Data Hub, Suffolk can ingest a wide variety of data types without time-consuming upfront data modeling.
Smart Mastering
Data from multiple silos across the enterprise (financial, imagery, scheduling, etc.) is harmonized in the Data Hub to give a true 360 view.
Agility
Suffolk can use the flexible MarkLogic platform to add more data sets and do their own in-house development of new applications.
