What is the value of CONNECT?
CONNECT is an open, vendor-neutral and cloud-based platform that uses a set of shared software services to achieve fast, reliable integration of industrial data, models, applications and AI/analytics. CONNECT offers a foundation for developing industrial intelligence and the flexibility to overcome information silos, enable collaboration, facilitate decision-making and reduce the cost of doing business.
“AVEVA™ PI System with CONNECT data services increased the amount of data we could pull by a factor of about 10 times, so it went from a few million records a month to tens of millions of records, which is massively helpful in building a predictive model. And it’s allowed us to respond more quickly to requests from our engineers.”
Alex Hegarty, Data Science Analyst, Drax
“Using CONNECT we have the ability to securely share our machine data with our maintenance partners in real time, so we can reduce downtime. The process is efficient, secure and enables us to react quickly.”
Simon Duster, Project Integrator, Renewable Energy Group
