LG Electronics built its Intellytics Customer 360 (IC360) platform on Databricks with Delta Lake and Databricks SQL to unify customer purchasing data via ID pinning, cutting data unification processing time from 10 hours to 3 hours (70% reduction) and total data system costs by 50%.
Overview
LG Electronics built its Intellytics Customer 360 (IC360) platform on Databricks with Delta Lake and Databricks SQL to unify customer purchasing data via ID pinning, cutting data unification processing time from 10 hours to 3 hours (70% reduction) and total data system costs by 50%.

Inspect the highlighted sourceThe challenge
LG struggled to understand the meaning of database tables scattered across individual business department systems, and schema updates interrupted users; the complex process of matching and linking individual customer data records ("customer data ID pinning") was difficult, and an external CDP could not handle more than about 10 simultaneous queries, causing failures that prevented LG's Intellytics Customer 360 (IC360) platform from launching.
The solution
LG Electronics introduced the Databricks Data + AI Platform, using Delta Lake for ACID transactions and unified streaming/batch processing, automated cluster management with a software development kit to add, remove and stop thousands of API-based jobs, a private link to block external access to the control plane, and Databricks SQL for high-performance queries on large datasets.
Reported business value
By using Databricks, the time to pin and process customer data was reduced from 10 hours to three hours, a 70% improvement, data logic processing costs dropped 30% from more efficient compute consumption, and flexible peak/off-peak operation delivered up to a 50% reduction in total data system management and compute costs.

Sight Machine's AI scheduling agent cuts a beverage manufacturer's non-value-added production time 75%
Sight Machine integrated OptiMind, a small language model from Microsoft Research, through Microsoft Foundry to build an AI-driven scheduling agent for a major beverage manufacturer that had been replanning production schedules 10-15 times per week through manual meetings. OptiMind converts scheduling problems described in natural language, combined with real-time plant data on line speeds, changeover times, and ramp-up durations, into Mixed-Integer Programming optimization models, automatically regenerating an optimized schedule when floor conditions change. The system cut non-value-added production time by 75%, improved overall plant productivity by more than 10%, reduced changeover-related downtime by nearly 80%, cut ramp-up delays by nearly 60%, and reduced clean-in-place sanitation downtime by almost 90%, eliminating hours of manual planning work each week without adding production infrastructure.

Krones, working with technology-ecosystem partners Ansys (part of Synopsys), Cadfem, Microsoft Azure, Nvidia (Omniverse/OpenUSD) and SoftServe, developed 'Agentic Digital Twins' that combine physically exact real-time simulation with AI agents capable of judgment and decision-making for beverage production lines. Simulation runs that previously took three to four hours now complete in under five minutes; the AI agents test scenarios and settings, optimize workflows, and transfer the best solutions to real equipment. The digital twin was used in developing Krones' new 'Ingeniq' line concept, presented at Drinktec 2025. Compute-intensive simulations run on Microsoft Azure using Nvidia's accelerated computing platform.
