- 1. ONESYSTEM -ONESOLUTION Turn your organization into real-time today April 2017
- 2. Agenda Status Quo Three Steps In A Nutshell Use Cases Detailed Features Summary
- 3. Industrial production is becoming increasingly interlinked with modern information and communication technology. From the foundation of intelligent digitally-networked systems, a largely self-organized production will be possible. In Industrie 4.0, people, machinery, plants, logistics and products will communicate and cooperate directly. To connect these different strands, a unified, flexible, high-performance system is needed to provide company-wide, real-time, information flow. Status Quo: Industrial Production & Industrie 4.0
- 4. Three Steps to the System of Systems • Complete, secure, uninterrupted real-time data communication. • Freeing systems from operating in isolation and abolish “data silos”. • High-Resolution data support at sub- millisecond scale and below. • Unlimited scalability. Compatibility with legacy systems. • Close gap between IT and OT. • New insight into business performance. • Increase ease of future system integration. • Lower effort and TCO, both on setup and lifecycle maintenance. • Provide added value for all business layers by FAST DATA integration. Challenges Desired OutcomesIdeal Solution • Single, all-purpose software solution to unite data sources across enterprise. • Mobile system that makes information available to company decision makers. • High performance, high resolution data historian. • Future-proof, flexible, scalable infrastructure.
- 5. The System of Systems It securely and efficiently gathers data from manufacturing, process control and IT systems all around the globe, contextualizes it and transforms it into actionable information, which is presented to every decision-maker on any device, anytime, at any location.

- 11. | Use Case 1 - Discrete Manufacturing World Market Leader in Consumer Products (NLD) Site-wide High Speed Data Collection Situation Production of personal lifestyle products for the entire world at one location 2000 employees, ~1000 machines, 25 million units per year Development Site-wide, data collection, historization and availability at sub-millisecond sampling rate Goals Hundreds of Connector components with a historian backbone of 20 terabyte units, horizontal plug and play expansion, reaching petabyte capacity, towards ‘Zero Defect Manufacturing’
- 12. | Use Case 2 - Machine Production World Market Leader in Packing Machines (DEU) The Global Machine Cloud Situation 1000 machines worldwide and a deployment of over 70 new production lines per year, one of the leading companies in the field of packaging automation. Development Complete upgrade of company’s legacy line management software. Launch of new business models with global cloud technology. All the machines and system components of a production line (including third party components) were completely standardized in the OPC Unified Architecture. Goals Complex standard is supported at any depth, scaling factors within line management meet the high Track & Trace standards of the food industry. ERP systems for the end user are simplified by the flexibility of the inmation system interface. All production lines have a secure cloud connection to enable worldwide monitoring by the service and support units.
- 13. | Use Case 3 – Process Industry World Market Leader in Chemical Production (DEU) Global Real-time Data Infrastructure Situation One of the largest chemical companies in the world with a system connecting production locations worldwide to the headquarters in Germany with more than 50 distributed system services. enterprise:inmation was selected as a platform to achieve ‘Global Manufacturing Intelligence’ aims. Development Field device data, alarm and event streams, process and performance data are consolidated worldwide and are passed on to various, central analysis systems. Goals Dozen applications now covered, more to follow. Including predictive maintenance, efficiency monitoring, global infrastructure monitoring or any other performance-oriented Fast Data application. Use of hundreds of CPU cores on distributed computers worldwide, with simple, centralized management of the entire system.

- 15. | Use Case 4 – Oil and Gas Leading Pipeline Operator (USA) Company-wide IT Monitoring Situation Diverse and technical IT structure across US operations. Many tools and systems in place, but operating in isolation not providing an integrated view of the US wide IT performance. Development Multiple backup, file transfer and inventory systems were integrated and periodically transfer all log data and inventory information to a harmonized history repository. Automatic aggregations and assignment processes for a highly structured real-time KPI model. Fully automated dashboard, now used by CIO and employees as the most vital control element in decision making and problem solving. Goals In the first three months of use, the quality of IT processes across the group have already improved markedly. In the now running 2nd phase, ten more data sources are being ‘live’ connected to Networker, Netapp, Tivoli, Veeam, MaxDB, R-MAN, Litespeed, ADDM und PRTG.
