BlogBusiness Excellence

The world’s top-performing best companies have one thing in common. They’ve found a way to go beyond data analytics - to data execution. In a world where the volume of data is exploding, exceeding 64 zettabytes, industry leaders need to make this data work for them.

At the Celonis World Tour 2021, we gathered these pioneers to kick off the new era of data execution. We’ve shown the world what can happen when companies move from insights to execution: bringing real-time data, intelligence, and action together.

Thousands of Celonis customers and partners from every industry and all around the world made this year’s World Tour our biggest virtual event ever. Making stops in 8 different regions, we gathered the pioneers of business execution to join us for a day of learning, networking, and inspiration.  And inspiring it was! On top of more than 75+ powerful customer, partner, and product sessions, Celonis unveiled a series of breakthrough innovations across the 3 EMS pillars - data, intelligence, and action - that enable every organization in the world to execute on their data.

Here’s a recap of the announcements from the World Tour 2021 - and sessions you should put on your watch list!

4 World Tour Announcements you should know about

Data

Celonis acquires Lenses.io

At World Tour, we announced the acquisition of Lenses.io to bring real-time data into business execution. Prior to Lenses.io, real-time streaming data was very difficult to apply in day-to-day business operations because of historically hard-to-use frameworks like Apache Kafka. Lenses.io is a pioneer in solving this problem by creating a system that allows any company to easily utilize streaming data, produced at scale, in milliseconds.

With the Lenses.io acquisition comes the launch of the new Celonis Kafka Connector.

Intelligence

Launch of the Celonis Execution Graph

Through the process insights and data assembled over the last decade, we have cracked the code on how to connect events, dependencies, and process relationships across multi-system environments. This breakthrough, called the Celonis Execution Graph, will give businesses, for the first time, insight into the true nature of their interconnected process ecosystem.

The Celonis Execution Graph is powered by two unique technology innovations: Celonis Multi Event Log and Celonis Signal Link.
