Breaking barriers for miners: Building a connected data ecosystem with AVEVA™ Data Hub

Posted: October 10, 2023

Mining and metals companies have extremely valuable data, but it’s always been a challenge to share that data with multiple stakeholders—especially external partners. That’s why building connected communities with AVEVA Data Hub changes the game. Now mining companies can get maximal value from their data by sharing it with partners in real time, driving operational efficiency, digital transformation and sustainability.

Creating a secure, collaborative cloud data ecosystem

AVEVA Data Hub's connected communities allow mining companies to seamlessly connect with trusted business partners, service providers, analytics experts and customers within a common data environment. Miners can create and manage a secure, multi-tenant data repository where these authorized participants easily access and share complex sequential data streams. This shared space breaks down barriers, empowering miners to exchange data and collaborate with partners seamlessly in real time.

For instance, suppliers can monitor stock levels in real time, optimizing inventory management and ensuring timely shipments. Equipment manufacturers can track their products' performance, identifying potential failures in advance to minimize downtime through predictive maintenance.

Communities data sharing within the mining and minerals ecosystem of partners

Harnessing the power of real-time industrial intelligence

AVEVA Data Hub connected communities are already delivering value across the industrial landscape. With operations more interconnected than ever, mining companies can use connected communities to enhance their operations, reduce downtime, increase profitability, and explore new business models.
