Leveraging the Unify platform, Cargill has been able to build and configure trusted, high quality data twins to support KPIs and advanced analytics at scale. The first 40 plants modeled in Unify consisted of 1,049 data sets used in building 311 pipelines, to which 5,109 asset templates were mapped, resulting in over 45 million connected data records.
