About Cabling Installation & Maintenance

Our mission: Bringing practical business and technical intelligence to today's structured cabling professionals

For more than 30 years, Cabling Installation & Maintenance has provided useful, practical information to professionals responsible for the specification, design, installation and management of structured cabling systems serving enterprise, data center and other environments. These professionals are challenged to stay informed of constantly evolving standards, system-design and installation approaches, product and system capabilities, technologies, as well as applications that rely on high-performance structured cabling systems. Our editors synthesize these complex issues into multiple information products. This portfolio of information products provides concrete detail that improves the efficiency of day-to-day operations, and equips cabling professionals with the perspective that enables strategic planning for networks’ optimum long-term performance.

Throughout our annual magazine, weekly email newsletters and 24/7/365 website, Cabling Installation & Maintenance digs into the essential topics our audience focuses on.

  • Design, Installation and Testing: We explain the bottom-up design of cabling systems, from case histories of actual projects to solutions for specific problems or aspects of the design process. We also look at specific installations using a case-history approach to highlight challenging problems, solutions and unique features. Additionally, we examine evolving test-and-measurement technologies and techniques designed to address the standards-governed and practical-use performance requirements of cabling systems.
  • Technology: We evaluate product innovations and technology trends as they impact a particular product class through interviews with manufacturers, installers and users, as well as contributed articles from subject-matter experts.
  • Data Center: Cabling Installation & Maintenance takes an in-depth look at design and installation workmanship issues as well as the unique technology being deployed specifically for data centers.
  • Physical Security: Focusing on the areas in which security and IT—and the infrastructure for both—interlock and overlap, we pay specific attention to Internet Protocol’s influence over the development of security applications.
  • Standards: Tracking the activities of North American and international standards-making organizations, we provide updates on specifications that are in-progress, looking forward to how they will affect cabling-system design and installation. We also produce articles explaining the practical aspects of designing and installing cabling systems in accordance with the specifications of established standards.

Strategy Announces General Availability of Strategy Mosaic™, the AI-Powered Universal Intelligence Layer

Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) today announced the general availability of Strategy Mosaic™, a groundbreaking AI-powered Universal Intelligence Layer designed to enable AI applications. As organizations modernize their data infrastructures, they often encounter challenges with siloed systems that lead to inconsistent metrics and governance gaps. This lack of clean, connected, and organized data is one of the greatest barriers to AI adoption. Strategy Mosaic addresses this issue by connecting disparate data sources across the enterprise, providing consistent and secure access to information that empowers both business users and AI applications.

Sitting atop any database or data warehouse, Strategy Mosaic allows organizations to access diverse data sources. This unified layer supports AI, applications, and analytics use cases, enabling rapid development of data products without the need for custom data warehouses. Unlike traditional data catalogs and virtual data warehouses, Mosaic uses business definitions and user-friendly objects to represent data.

"With Mosaic, we’ve broken through the biggest barriers to business innovation: data silos, conflicting metrics, and high data transformation costs," said Saurabh Abhyankar, Chief Product Officer at Strategy. "Our powerful semantic graph ensures a single source of truth for enterprise analytics, and Mosaic extends this with a universal layer of intelligence compatible with any cloud, reporting tool, and data source."

Key features of Strategy Mosaic include:

  • Rich Semantic Layer: Built on Strategy's proven semantic architecture, this ensures consistent business definitions and metrics across data sources. It includes comprehensive semantic concepts such as hierarchies, multi-form attributes, and transformations, all while centralizing security and governance policies.
  • Universal Access: Mosaic features a standard access layer with support for third-party workloads via standard SQL (JDBC), DAX, REST, and Python APIs. It provides optimized connectors for popular tools like Tableau, Power BI, Excel, and Google Sheets, and can connect to over 200 data sources, including files, applications, and databases.
  • AI-Powered Data Modeling (Mosaic Studio): Mosaic Studio uses AI to automate data preparation and modeling tasks, delivering results up to 10 times faster. It analyzes data, auto-creates objects and relationships, applies aggregation functions, detects and removes duplicates, and enriches underlying data. Users can even create metrics using natural language prompts.
  • Query Acceleration Engine: This powerful in-memory engine enhances performance through push-down processing and cross-data source calculations, alleviating the load on data warehouses and reducing query costs.
  • Enterprise-Grade Security & Governance: Strategy Mosaic ensures comprehensive security and governance with features such as security filters, object-level access control, granular user privileges, and flexible authentication methods, applied consistently across all access points. Sensitive data remains protected from exposure to underlying LLMs.

Strategy Mosaic effectively addresses common pain points such as inconsistent metrics, security gaps, lack of AI readiness, and high analytic costs. Strategy Mosaic is available immediately. To learn more, visit https://www.strategysoftware.com/strategymosaic.
