•  In-Memory (but data is durable to disk)
•  Scale-Out shared-nothing architecture
•  Reliability and fault tolerance
•  SQL + Java with ACID
•  Hadoop and data warehouse integration
•  Open source and commercially licensed (24X7)

USE CASES IN TODAY’S SESSION
•  Avoid Unplanned Downtime
•  Asset Tracking
•  Smart Meter Management
•  Fleet Management

AVOIDING UNPLANNED DOWNTIME
6

TRUE DOWNTIME COSTS
•  E-commerce businesses lose $42,000 to $110,000 per hour from
data center outages
•  Power plants lose two ways: cost of maintenance between
$200,000 to $400,000 and revenue loss between $475,000
(125MW F-class) and $775,000 (250MW F-class) per year
•  Automotive manufacturers can lose over 1 Million dollars per
month from True Downtime Costs (TDC)
•  Oil and Gas equipment: reactive maintenance can save over 10
Million Dollars compared to scheduled maintenance in a year
7

WHAT CAN IOT DO TO AVOID/REDUCE TDC
•  Collecting health metrics data from sensors – Event/Response:
Responding to events appropriately can be automated
•  Taking preventative measures with actuators – The response to an
anomalous event immediately in real-time can prevent the system before a
breakdown
•  Dashboards showing current health metrics
•  A real-time decision making system that can process data from multiple
streams in real-time to prescribe preventative measures
•  Continuous analysis of data to create new insights

BENEFITS OF REAL-TIME DECISIONS
•  Sustainable performance that scales
•  Non-stop availability – 99.9997% measured uptime
•  Lowering the total cost of ownership by 33% to 66%
•  9 out of 10 issues were detected before the symptoms became
apparent
•  Automated decision making removed the need for level-1 and
level-2 support engineers
10

ASSET TRACKING
11

WHY TRACK ASSETS
•  Know where they are (GPS, RFID – Active/Passive) – Supply Chain
Management
•  Inventory control (Barcodes, RFID) Retailers lose nearly 60 Billion dollars
in 2015. Employee theft is the #1 concern.
•  Indoor customer experience enhancement (Wi-Fi, IR and Bluetooth)
•  Asset condition checking (NFC)

BENEFITS OF REAL-TIME ASSET TRACKING
14

SMART METER MANAGEMENT
15

CHALLENGES UTILITIES ARE FACING
•  Lack of real-time insight into consumers’ spending of the utility
•  Leading to ineffective/sub-optimal grid management
•  Need to reduce CO2 footprint
•  Eliminate inaccurate billing

17

BENEFITS OF SMART METER MANAGEMENT
•  Consumers get real time energy costs
•  Real-time billing
•  Inﬂuence the consumers’ energy utilization patterns based on tariffs
•  Supports demand response techniques for the utilities companies
•  Effective grid management
•  Management of a large smart meter installation base – 53 million smart
meters
18

FLEET MANAGEMENT
19

CHALLENGES IN FLEET MANAGEMENT
•  Driver safety and productivity
•  Fuel utilization management
•  Avoid unplanned downtime
•  Managing reactive maintenance on in-service ﬂeet vehicles
•  Maintaining visibility of in-transit vehicles

BENEFITS OF REAL-TIME FLEET MANAGEMENT
•  Establishing visibility of the fleet location in real-time
•  Notification of nearest safety zones in case of catastrophes
•  Improved efficiency in fuel utilization
•  Fleet vehicles health metrics enabling just-in-time reactive
maintenance
•  Geo-fencing of the fleet vehicles
22

COMMON TRAITS OF REAL-TIME NEEDS
•  Ability to ingest data created at a high velocity
•  Need to process each event data or a group of events representing a
meaningful session
•  Apply complex policies and logic to make decisions immediately
•  Notify downstream subsystems to take immediate action
•  Operationalizing big data insights into real-time event processing
