Beyond mere data management, Data Cloud represents a significant advancement, enabling profound insights by harmonizing diverse data sources with CRM data from the Salesforce platform. This convergence facilitates the unlocking of actionable insights critical for informed decision-making.

In a strategic collaboration, Salesforce and AWS extend their partnership to enhance AI capabilities. AWS AI services are integrated into Salesforce’s Einstein Trust Layer, empowering Data Cloud with seamless access to AWS data services and compute resources. Additionally, Data Cloud and other Salesforce offerings are now accessible through the AWS Marketplace, streamlining procurement processes.

This e-book delves into how Data Cloud unifies vast and varied business data with CRM data from the Salesforce Einstein Platform. It serves as a robust foundation for AI-powered customer experiences, providing businesses with unprecedented insights into their data universe.

With Data Cloud, businesses can seamlessly combine CRM data with diverse sources, including transactional data, IoT device data, and social media interactions. This consolidation fosters a single source of truth, enhancing decision-making and the relevance of AI models.

Unlike traditional approaches that involve laborious data movement, Data Cloud operates on AWS infrastructure, enabling seamless data connectivity and preparation without the need for ETL processes. Leveraging Apache Iceberg and Salesforce’s contributions, Data Cloud ensures data consistency, flexibility, and interoperability, essential for AI-driven insights.

Moreover, Data Graphs offer a novel approach to assemble and rapidly access data collections from disparate sources, facilitating grounded AI experiences. Through Model Builder and Einstein Copilot Studio, businesses can seamlessly access Data Cloud data in Amazon SageMaker for custom AI model creation without ETL overheads.

This partnership between Salesforce and AWS represents a paradigm shift in data management and AI integration. By combining Salesforce’s customer-centric approach with AWS’s scalable infrastructure, Data Cloud empowers businesses to harness AI as a practical tool for growth and innovation in the digital era.
