Cloudinary’s automation is expected to minimise the manual labour required to collaboratively manage media assets, including searching and sharing content.
In addition, the Cloud solutions can improve media assets with metadata and analysis and offer an artificial intelligence (AI) based, content-aware detection model for fashion.
The AI model helps detect clothing attributes automatically based on factors such as fabric, types of fastenings used and the presence of pockets.
River Island architecture head David Edwards said: “At River Island, the future of our brand is what excites us most and we aim to take our popular digital experience from strength to strength.
