Tech giants Microsoft, Adobe and SAP Monday announced their collaboration for Open Data Initiative (ODI) that will allow mutual customers to use new-age tools like artificial intelligence and advanced analytics more effectively.

Businesses are often unable to fully leverage the data stored internally and externally across various functions that limits its ability to garner intelligence and ultimately, extract more value from its own data in real-time.
