Amazon Announces AWS Supply Chain App
Amazon AWS introduces a new cloud application to improve supply chain visibility and deliver actionable insights to mitigate supply chain risks, lower costs, and improve customer experiences.
AWS Supply chain is already being used by Lifetime Brands, Traeger Grills, Whole Foods Market and more.
At AWS re:Invent, Amazon Web Services, Inc. (AWS), an Amazon.com, Inc. company (NASDAQ: AMZN), today announced AWS Supply Chain, a new application that helps businesses increase supply chain visibility to make faster, more informed decisions that mitigate risks, lower costs, and improve customer experiences.
AWS Supply Chain automatically combines and analyzes data across multiple supply chain systems so businesses can observe their operations in real-time, find trends more quickly, and generate more accurate demand forecasts that ensure adequate inventory to meet customer expectations. Based on nearly 30 years of Amazon.com logistics network experience, AWS Supply Chain improves supply chain resiliency by providing a unified data lake, machine-learning-powered insights, recommended actions, and in-application collaboration capabilities...
...AWS Supply Chain is an application that improves supply chain visibility and provides actionable insights to help businesses optimize supply chain processes and improve service levels. Customers can easily set up a unified supply chain data lake using AWS Supply Chain’s built-in connectors, which use pre-trained machine learning models based on Amazon.com's nearly 30 years of supply chain experience, to understand, extract, and aggregate data from ERP and supply chain management systems.
