Sutter Health Park Just Got Smarter — From Dugout to Parking Lot. We’re proud to announce the full NXTFusion™ sensor deployment at Sutter Health Park in West Sacramento, bringing autonomous AI intelligence to the venue as we start the 2026–27 baseball season. Starting this season, NXTFusion™ is deliver real-time AI-powered visibility across the entire venue footprint — managing traffic flow, protecting revenue, securing the parking lot, and keeping fans and staff safe across all the events on the calendar. And the calendar is packed. Beyond the Athletics (soon to be the Las Vegas Athletics) and Sacramento River Cats baseball, Sutter Health Park hosts some of the most dynamic events in the region: -Savannah Bananas — bringing their viral brand of baseball entertainment to Sacramento fans -Shamrock Marathon — one of the region’s premier running events flowing through and around the venue - Perfect Game tournaments — elite youth baseball where every play matters and every parking spot counts Each of these events brings unique crowd dynamics, traffic patterns, and operational demands. NXTFusion™ adapts in real time — automatically — so our operations partners at Ace Parking can manage it all with fewer staff, less guesswork, and zero revenue leakage. This is what a fully sensored venue looks like: AI-powered vehicle counting and traffic orchestration, Real-time anomaly detection and employee safety alerts, POS Sentry revenue accuracy across all cashier-managed operations, Predictive crowd flow — before problems become incidents. We didn’t build NXTFusion™ for a single game. We built it for the full season, the doubleheader, the marathon morning, and the Friday night lights of youth baseball. See Everything. Miss Nothing. Respond Instantly. Sutter Health Park is now one of the most intelligently managed venues in Major and Minor League Baseball. And we’re just getting started. Interested in what full-venue AI sensing looks like for your property? Let’s talk. #NXTRobotics #NXTFusion #SutterHealthPark #Athletics #SacramentoRiverCats #SavanannahBananas #ShamrockMarathon #VenueOperations #SmartStadium #AceParking #RevenueProtection #AutonomousAI

Connectivity is still the biggest barrier to smart farming. This article from The Packer highlights how Don Cameron at Terranova Ranch is using Emergent’s platform to automate irrigation, track water use, and build compliance records across a large California operation. The big takeaway: once the farm is connected, automation becomes practical. Good perspective for anyone advising growers on the future of farm operations. #FarmAutomation #FarmConnectivity #IoT #AgTech #IrrigationAutomation #NationalAgMonth https://lnkd.in/gthC6h-v

Acumatica's 2025 R2 release came out last week. And yes, its AI strategy is front and center. But - suggests Jon Reed - there's a sneaky big story driving this release: a turning point into Acumatica's pursuit of ERP personalization. Here's what we learned: bit.ly/48MukrM #ERPpersonalization

We published a practical guide to SSRS to Power BI migration. Not a vendor pitch. A real breakdown of the 5 phases — inventory, data modeling, parity validation, security, and adoption. Including the mistakes that derail most migrations. If your team is planning this migration or already mid-project: https://lnkd.in/gbcapMRu

AgTech Ecosystem - huge news from Salinas today as the first location of The Reservoir's Reservoir Farms on-farm robotics incubator is now officially launched. Big props to Danny Bernstein and the Reservoir Farms team and big thanks to Brian Antle and the team at Tanimura & Antle for partnering on the launch and making it happen. For years, this has been one of the missing pieces for specialty crop AgTech - a place where startups can do R&D work to design robots, conduct field trials on their creations and get grower feedback so they can make changes to improve the robots, and then hold demonstrations once the robots are being commercialized. Prior to Reservoir Farms, startups had to locate somewhere that quite often was nowhere near farming acreage, they had to pay for their own office and lab space, find a tractor or any supporting equipment they needed, and work deals on a one-off basis for acreage for demos or trials. And since "prior to Reservoir Farms" means approximately yesterday, startups have been paying too much for too little access and not enough tools for years. With Reservoir Farms, for some startups that can change. Startups will be able to have shared work space for R&D, shared equipment, and dedicated acreage in a shared farming environment that is available to them for demos and trials 24/7/365. This is the best way for automation startups to build fast and build at low cost. It's also the best way to get regular feedback from potential customers. Startups will pay a monthly subscription to join Reservoir Farms - if you are interested please reach out to the Reservoir Farms team (info in post below). Look for Reservoir Farms updates as the Salinas location gets built out and accepts new startups who want to be members, as well as updates on future new locations. This is a great first step (more accurately the latest step of many) towards making Reservoir Farms real. The ideal outcome is more robots providing automation solutions to help solve California ag's largest problem - the ongoing labor shortage and increasing costs due to regulations and the increased use of immigrant labor via the H-2A program.

As data moves into Microsoft #PowerBI, access controls from platforms like Snowflake and Databricks often break down—exposing sensitive data and creating compliance gaps. TrustLogix extends enterprise access policies into Power BI, so analysts can work with governed data across both direct queries and imported datasets. The result: consistent controls, fewer risks, and faster, trusted insights. 🔗 Learn how it works: https://hubs.li/Q03r84n40 #DSPM #DataAccessGovernance #Snowflake #Databricks
