What is GlobalSuite™
According to CDI, the technology is better than a mere graphical interface or a data reporting software. It is a complicated software with a large list of functions, combined to create an integrated platform for providing detailed data analysis for most gambling machines or casino software.
CDI created GlobalSuite using the newest business intelligence technologies of Microsoft. One thing is sure, the technology is not a simple product, made for mass production, it is sophisticated and customized to suit specifically gambling operators. According to George Levine, spokesperson for CGI, GlobalSuite can be defined as “utilizing multidimensional databases and cubes accelerating the analysis process allowing GlobalSuite™ users to quickly gain insight via canned and custom reports.”
The GlobalSuite Advanced Visualization Analyzis program was presented at the G2E expo 2014. Engineers from the company introduced the capabilities of the program, explaining that the end used will find it surprisingly easy to operate the software.
