Questions & Answers
Can we implement EDA by ourselves?
Posted on April 1, 2022 by Rajveer
EDA is not just code; this solution assumes configuration and consulting service. The configuration is about mapping and tuning which is typically required. The consulting part helps to better understand the organization's needs, introduce a common language, and help to adopt and later adapt KPI dashboards as a communication tool (not just reporting) on different levels and between levels.
