Retail Solutions Begins Roll-Out of a New Release of its State of the Art Data Management Platform

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., Jan. 5, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Global retail analytics provider, Retail Solutions Inc. (RSi) today announced it has started rolling out the most recent release of its leading Operational Retailer Data Management platform to customers. Built on the latest Big Data technology, this new platform leverages massive parallel processing analytics database capabilities to deal with the recent data explosion and deliver solutions to their customers on time with quality and performance.

"The past few years were marked by an acceleration in the volume of data our customers ask us to help them with," explained Jon Golovin, RSi Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "Not only is there more data today than there ever was, but this data is also much more complex and variable: this new platform will help us be more proactive and more responsive, to help our customers turn this data into more valuable insights, faster and in a more automated way."

RSi manages data from over 150 different retailers on behalf of more than 500 consumer goods companies (CPG): more than five thousand CPG and retail industry professionals benefit from RSi extensive POS and Category data on a regular basis, to drive retail operational excellence. RSi is the industry-leading solution for turning retail data into improved on-shelf availability, lower inventory levels, and more effective promotions and new product introductions.

In addition to providing significant performance gains that translate into faster delivery of information and answers to complex queries, the new data platform will help integrate new data sources, beyond the traditional POS and associated retail data to provide additional ROI to RSi's customers.

"This new platform provides our customers with so many new opportunities," commented Cedric Guyot, Chief Strategy Officer for RSi.  "Over the last few years, we have uncovered many innovative usages for retailer data, such as digital marketing measurement. The increased flexibility and the new types of data RSi  will manage open up the floor to a brand new realm of uses across the enterprise, ultimately providing CPG companies with a great chance to fine-tune their understanding of their retailer customers to build more effective, differentiated partnerships."

The first customers went live on the platform starting December 1st. To learn more about this new release, RSi is hosting a webinar on January 14, 2016 and customers can register now.
