Reworld Holding Corp., a sustainable waste solutions provider, was struggling to access reliable data from its various systems and reporting tools. To solve this problem, the company built the Reworld Data Hub using QlikTech International AB’s Talend Data Fabric. This centralized resource brought together key information from hundreds of scattered databases, creating a “connective tissue” for the company’s data. Charles Link, Senior Director of Data and Analytics at Reworld, explained that the goal was to create a common hub of information, not to replicate everything, but to have one place that could provide a unified view of the company’s data.
Link, along with Drew Clarke, EVP at Qlik, discussed how Reworld leveraged Qlik’s technology to improve data access during an interview with theCUBE at Qlik Connect. Clarke noted that Qlik’s acquisition of Talend in 2023 provided a robust cataloging option that has become a key focus for the company. The solution has enabled Reworld to redefine its relationship with data and create a data model that provides users with a single source of truth for the information they need. The result is improved data access and a more unified view of the company’s operations.
