Repsol will begin marketing ARiA (Advanced Repsol Intelligence & Analytics), its proprietary, cloud-based data and analytics platform, in collaboration with Accenture. Originally conceived for internal use by Repsol two years ago, the platform will now become available to other companies interested in accelerating the use of big data and deploying artificial intelligence at scale, according to a press release.

The ARiA platform, Repsol's own personalized “digital brain”, includes data ingestion solutions, various cloud storage alternatives included in Microsoft’s Azure, data governance tools, development lab, machine learning models, and self-service tools, says Repsol.

This initiative builds on the ongoing project of both companies focused on the development, operation, and maintenance of the data platform over the next five years. This project has made Accenture one of Repsol's primary collaborators in its digital transformation journey.

Accenture will design, develop, and launch a marketing plan for ARiA, including drawing up technical and commercial proposals with input from Repsol as the platform's developer. Repsol will also provide suggestions and guidance on how to create a data-driven culture within organizations by scaling up the use of big data and artificial intelligence.

Working together, Repsol and Accenture will also identify the possible solutions developed using ARiA that can be marketed for use in other companies.
