Speed up data engineering for process mining in practice

You’ve learned about process mining during your courses, but how much do you know about creating the event log for process mining? In business, creating the event log required for process mining is one of the most time-intensive, most complex parts of a process mining project. At Konekti, we’ve built a platform that simplifies and Read More …
