Op-Ed by Nicolas Thery, CTO of DAMAaaS
La digitalisation des processus métiers est au cœur des stratégies de transformation des grandes entreprises. Avec la plateforme NoCode DAMAaaS, les métiers disposent d’un outil puissant pour créer des applications adaptées à leurs besoins. Mais une question essentielle demeure : comment la DSI peut-elle garder le contrôle sur la sécurité des données sensibles ?
Sovereign AI, compliant with the GDPR
At DAMAaaS, data security is a top priority. That’s why we’ve chosen to integrate AI hosted on our own infrastructure. Unlike AI systems such as ChatGPT or Gemini, our Llama 3.1 model is fully controlled in-house, ensuring strict compliance with the GDPR and protection against non-European laws such as the U.S. Cloud Act.
This approach allows our users to work with confidence, knowing that their sensitive data does not pass through third-party servers. Large companies—particularly in highly regulated sectors such as banking and healthcare—can thus adopt AI for their critical processes while complying with applicable regulations.
By choosing an in-house AI solution, DAMAaaS companies’ concerns (especially those of CIOs!) regarding data privacy. The data entered into our models is not used to improve the AI nor shared with other users. This ensures that sensitive information remains fully under control.
Simplifying the development of AI-powered applications in DAMAaaS
One of the main goals of DAMAaaS to make the design of complex business applications accessible. Here are some concrete examples of how AI is moving in this direction:
- Calculated formulas and advanced data validation : Designers can ask the AI to automatically generate complex calculation rules. For example, automatically verifying that pre-tax amounts correspond to standard VAT rates (20%, 10%, or 5.5%).
- Regular expressions : Creating standardized formats used to be the domain of experts. Now, the AI in DAMAaaS regular expressions tailored to specific needs in just a few seconds, such as validating a Social Security number or a product code.
- Multilingual translations : With DAMAaaS, an application designed in French can be automatically translated into multiple languages, with precise adjustments to ensure compliance with industry-specific terminology (accounting, logistics, etc.).
These features not only significant time savings, but also reduce errors and simplify processes for non-technical users.
Toward near-total automation?
In 2025, DAMAaaS to take things even further. Among the innovations currently in development: intelligent dialogue for application design. Imagine describing your needs to the AI (“I want to create an expense report management app with dual validation and automatic VAT calculation”) and watching the app build itself automatically, module by module. A dream that could very well become a reality at DAMAaaS
With DAMAaaS, CIOs and business units benefit froma platform that combines innovation, productivity, compliance, and security. For large European companies, it is no longer a matter of choosing between technology and security. With DAMAaaS, the two go hand in hand, paving the way for a smooth and successful digital transformation.
