Their challenge

JAX needed to streamline and modernize their data platform, uncover actionable insights, and improve visibility with real-time analytics. Although JAX chose MCA Connect to implement D365 Finance, they were using a GSI for analytics. When the GSI failed to meet expectations and show measurable progress, JAX turned to MCA Connect.

Our solution

In addition to D365, MCA Connect will implement a proprietary modern data platform built on Azure, DataCONNECT. This Azure solution consolidates data from D365 and other enterprise systems for “one version of the truth” when it comes to data. A Bring Your Own Database (BYOD) version will be implemented first and then migrated to Azure Data Lake.
