Michael Setticasi: Sr. Director of Business Development for Alteryx at Cypher 2017
summary
IDC finds ~5 million heavy spreadsheet users wasting ~8 hours/week each — roughly $160 billion in lost productivity; Alteryx automates those Excel vlookups and schedules workflows. Ford runs a Hadoop cluster with 7,500 cores, 300 nodes, 7 PB of car and supply‑chain data and reports +7 cars/hour at one plant, ~$100M supply‑chain savings and $30M from optimized dealership test‑drive routes. Southwest cuts a monthly fuel-analysis run to ~10 minutes, gains 12% scheduled and 70% unscheduled efficiency. Alteryx supports in‑database blending, a Connect catalog, desktop and server deployment.
