Foundry Accelerators

What are accelerators by Unit8?
Unit8 accelerators are drop and deploy applications and workflows designed to streamline operations on Palantir Foundry and help you see valuable returns quicker.

 

ACCELERATOR #1

Data assets management
This accelerator allows us to speed-up the initial implementation steps at the beginning of any project (i.e. data quality check, model performance monitoring, tools to lay foundations to build data models)

What does it do:

  • manage, evolve and grow data assets with confidence
  • strong guidelines for working with data assets to ensure common understanding
  • significant reduction in communication overhead
  • centralised, accessible data catalogue

Success Stories:

ACCELERATOR #2

Performance and cost optimisation
This accelerator combines best-practices and tools we developed to optimise job execution time and reduce platform operating costs

What does it do:

Rapid growth of adoption and usage on Foundry platform often leads to resource contention and uncontrollable explosion of cloud infrastructure costs. Unit8’s Performance and Cost optimisation accelerator combines operational data from the platform to gain better visibility on resources utilisation and continuously manage and optimise costs.

  • quantify and attribute incurred costs to users & projects
  • identify bottlenecks and sources of resource contention
  • reduce disk spillage and job execution time
  • eliminate unnecessary job schedules
