About This Constellation ShortList™
Cognitive applications run mission-critical business systems in a continuous, self-driving, self-learning, auto-compliant, self-securing and self-healing approach. These artificial intelligence (AI)-driven systems intelligently automate transactional systems and processes such as campaign to lead, order to cash, procure to pay, incident to resolution, concept to market and hire to retire. The goal of an autonomous enterprise is to continuously automate precision decisions at scale.
A convergence of solutions from robotic process automation, process mining, business process management, intelligent workflow, journey orchestration and microservices management attempt to address the growing need to automate and apply AI to enterprisewide capabilities. However, a new class of best-of-breed applications has emerged to address the market deficit. Constellation predicts that the total market for this autonomous enterprise market, including cognitive applications, will reach $10.35 billion by 2030.
