In response to a shift in the market toward line-of-business adoption of enterprise decision-making solutions and applications, the product name, IBM ILOG ODM Enterprise, is renamed IBM Decision Optimization Center . Decision Optimization Center is a flexible, optimization-powered platform that delivers optimization across many business functions through a common architecture that provides the intelligence needed to help transform data insights into action. Unlike other decision-support packages, custom solutions, and development environments, Decision Optimization Center gives:

  • Enterprises the flexibility and speed to make and validate forward-looking decisions through a common portal for adopting or building optimization models for enterprise deployment.
  • Lines of business the power to transform analytic insights into prescribed planning and scheduling, supply chain, and asset utilization actions that generate competitive advantage.
  • IT a modernized, flexible deployment architecture for implementing enterprise analytic applications and business value solutions across the global value chain.
  • Solution developers a CPLEX-powered development platform for creating innovative decision support applications by effectively applying operations research methods.

Key new features in V3.8:
  • Performance and scalability: Lower latency in the business user interface helps improve the user experience when working with large data sets.
  • Rapid and flexible application development: The use of scripting helps reduce the time and effort required to customize data models and views.
  • An effective business interface: The ability to define user roles and rights helps planners differentiate roles in the planning process to support organizational business processes. Enhancements in this release allow planners to see or interact only with data relevant to their role such as worldwide versus local planning.
  • Ease of use: Enhancements to the Gantt chart component enable business users to move activities within a schedule interactively in real time.
  • Flexible architecture: A basic representational state transfer (REST) API helps facilitate application web deployment, especially for integration requirements such as data access and job control.
