Business use cases and the impact of Optaplanner, by Satish Kale

#1 Business use cases and the impact of Optaplanner
Planning problems are very interesting. These problems generally have inter-dependencies, complying with some constraints, and “accommodating as much as you can” other constraints. This makes it a mix of subjective analysis, which generally humans are good at, but also exponential growth of combinations to review very rapidly, which humans are definitely NOT good at. The human mind can comprehend linear progression well; however, it fails spectacularly when it comes to the exponential growth of possibilities that are produced by increasing data sets for planning use cases.
This is where, Optaplanner, with its superior algorithm support, simplicity to use, flexibility and scalability comes handy.
In this business-oriented session, we will go through typical planning examples: skills-based task assignments, scheduling, risk assessments, resource allocations, etc.
We can delve into a couple of real planning world use cases:
- Technician Scheduling and Vehicle routing resulting in 100s of Million dollars annual savings
- Cloud resource balancing/optimization. How to dynamically allocate cloud resources optimally to workload demands.
The tremendous impact Optaplanner has made is worth retelling.
Join me in this session to learn about these business use cases in planning space, the impact Optaplanner has made, and what the future holds.
