Description

Illimity, an Italian digital bank, built its data architecture entirely around the Databricks Data + AI Platform to process data in real time, extract actionable insights and securely share it with partners. Databricks has supported Illimity's adoption of LLMs, using vector embedding and vector databases, to inform its knowledge base and power intelligent customer-centric chatbots. Illimity is also exploring Databricks Clean Rooms to monetize its architecture using deterministic or machine learning models without compromising confidentiality.
