Fermentation has long fascinated both scientists and culinary artists. This biological process, which converts sugars into alcohol or acids using microorganisms, plays a transformative role in creating products ranging from delicious wine to probiotic-rich yogurt. Much like fermentation breaks down complex sugars to unlock their potential, businesses today have the opportunity to transform their hidden, or “dark data,” into invaluable insights. With the advent of sophisticated ERP systems, businesses can now tap into this underutilized resource and channel it towards enhanced decision-making and productivity.
