Clarity Named Leader for Real-Time, Open-Source Analytics by 451 Research

CHICAGO, IL--(Marketwired - October 10, 2016) - In a September 2016 report, IT analyst firm 451 Research recognized data consultancy Clarity Solution Group as the clear choice for companies seeking to gain competitive advantages with faster business insights.

"Clarity Solution Group is a pure-play big data consultancy with the skills and experience in real-time analytics to help customers get actionable business results," said Dr. Katy Ring, an IT analyst at 451 Research.

The report cites Clarity's innovative open-source, real-time analytics solutions and highlights three examples of how they have helped clients reduce their "time to insight" and lower operating costs:

• Clarity implemented a near-real-time system for a healthcare provider, allowing the organization to query data that was accurate to within five minutes, instead of the day-old data their previous system offered. Now physicians and clinicians have diagnostic insights sooner and can respond to events or potential issues within minutes instead of hours.
• Clarity partnered with an oil and gas drilling company on the strategy, planning and implementation of a "one-second data" application that makes well data available to the company and its customers. As a result, the drilling company anticipates a 20-fold return on its investment.
• Clarity also helped a major steel manufacturer use sensor, quality and environmental data to create descriptive and predictive analytics and improve the quality of their products. Engineers were able to visually identify process irregularities and variables that were causing or correlated with product defects, saving the company $10M annually.

"The advantage Clarity Solution Group has against competitors is its ability to operate more nimbly within a customer's existing technology choices. Clarity also focuses on making each of its customers successful without additional assistance by providing knowledge transfer as a standard part of its engagements rather than as an optional extra," said King.
