The continually evolving digital landscape demands tools that can simplify business operations, upscale customer experience, and high level of efficiency. To follow this goal, Pimcore has unveiled its latest release: Pimcore 2024.3. The latest cutting-edge update brings a suite of new and improved features and updates aimed at enhancing business capabilities, thus making it a notable update for organizations seeking a high level of efficiency.
Pimcore 2024.3 is ready with more enhanced Pimcore Copilot than ever and other updated features to help businesses ease their data processes and drive overall growth this year.
What’s New in Pimcore 2024.3?
Enhanced Copilot
Pimcore Copilot is an AI-powered assistant that is particularly designed to enhance workflow and productivity. Pimcore Copilot is now more evolved with version 2024.3, which is meant to manage a wide range of complex business needs. The Copilot now uses fine-tuned AI models for AI-powered automation to manage business data.
New Automation Actions
Pimcore 2024.3 introduces two powerful automation actions that significantly enhance data management capabilities:
Automated Data Object Classification
This method is mainly used to tailor models to optimize data categorization. It helps users to manage data objects by assigning attributes to them for example, select, multi- select, and tags.
- Businesses can use their improved models: Integrate the fine-tuned model into the system for enhanced accuracy in classification tasks. The model helps increase accuracy of the entire system because it is specifically customized for a business domain or dataset.
- No limitation on possible results: Unlike other classification methods, this approach does not restrict outcomes, allowing for a broader range of classifications. Since Hugging Face Zero Shot Text Classification method works in limited predefined categories and provides restricted classification results.
- Add attribute values to select, multi-select attributes and tags: The specific information which is required to be sent to an AI model for classification, can be clearly defined with attributes. Using attributes helps store classification results with associated values, once the model processes the business data.
Automated Image Classification
Image classification is quite similar to text classification. In this process, the new enhanced models assign tags to images, that provide a detailed categorization of visual content. Automated image classification offers a broader range of classification to improve the relevance of image categorization.
One of the key features of this method is custom tagging of images. (The rest two features are the same as text classification.)
Enable AI fine-tuning
The latest Pimcore Platform Version 2024.3 has come up with a wide range of AI training actions in order to support new custom models using Hugging Face. AI actions help Pimcore data to deliver the best possible results in every environment. Copilot Showcase bundle contains these AI action steps, optimizing AI models in just one option. However, businesses can utilize their own training methods to customize models for specific requirements.
The AI action step integrated Pimcore workflow engine with Pimcore Copilot, resulting in improved efficiency of the workflow state for different elemects in a single operation. Thus, businesses can maintain streamlined processes throughout the environment without compromising on quality.
Flexibility enhancement to execute Pimcore Copilot actions!
Pimcore Platform Version 2024.3 introduces new triggers to improve the capabilities of automation within the Pimcore Copilot. The triggers are adding more flexibility to the platform since users can now be able to automate various tasks.
For instance, events and workflows can be utilized now as triggers in order to execute Pimcore Copilot actions.
- Define Workspace: Businesses can define required workspaces as triggers for Pimcore Copilot action.
- Define event and workflow: A dropdown menu enables users to check events or workflows for various data elements.
- Define precondition: For granular filtering, precondition dropdown or the PQL precondition field can be used.
