- “Self-service” analytics that can
monitor and respond to IoT data in real-time now available to
engineers and other domain experts working without needing to write
any code.
- Operators can design, implement, update
and manage their streaming analytics “on the fly” as the situation
demands.
- Processing of machine data and events
to recognize patterns, relationships and errors can be modified in
real time without involving IT or coders.
- Complements Software AG’s time
series-based self-service visualization tool, TrendMiner.
- The promise of rapid development of
analytics given by Software as a Service can now be fully
realized.
Software AG (Frankfurt MDAX: SOW) today announced the
availability of Apama Analytics Builder to radically reduce the
time it takes to design, develop and deploy analytics for Internet
of Things applications. Analytics Builder gives engineers and other
domain experts working on the IoT Edge a web-based capabilitiy to
develop analytic applications on streamed data, test them with
simulated or live data and deploy them immediately with a single
click for the real-time processing of machine data and events.
“Analytics Builder delivers on our strategic vision for
self-service analytics and removes the typical bottlenecks
hindering the rapid development and deployment of streaming
analytic applications," said Dr. Stefan Sigg, Chief Product Officer
of Software AG. “By allowing operators and domain experts to
directly develop their own analytic applications we are taking a
huge amount of pressure off the IT department and empowering
decentralized teams to accelerate their delivery schedules. Also,
bringing operational expertise directly to application development
significantly reduces the risk of misunderstandings and enables
operators to immediately address unexpected events and
situations.”
Apama Analytics Builder is a product of Software AG’s unique,
industry-led approach to IoT development. The market requirement
was identified by Dürr AG, a member of the manufacturing industry
joint venture consortium ADAMOS, developed by Software AG and Dürr,
rolled out over the ADAMOS IoT platform and is already in
production with end customers – all in a matter of less than 12
months.
Nico Koch, Manager Digital Factory at Dürr, said: “I can really
feel the enthusiasm of the customers when we are presenting this
product. With Analytics Builder we will push forward the
digitalization on the shop floor tremendously. We have put
extremely powerful analytical tools into the hands of those that
understand the production process the best, opening a new era of
streamlining and improvement.”
Apama Analytics Builder has a graphical user interface for
non-coders to take advantage of streaming analytics. It allows
operators to quickly build and deploy analytical models using a
comprehensive library of pre-built analytic blocks. With a
drag-and-drop, free-form, web-based editor and the capability to
manage deployment and simulation, real-time analytical applications
can be developed when and where needed. Analytics Builder models
can also be easily exported for use throughout the
organization.
Already available on the ADAMOS IoT platform and in production,
Apama Analytics Builder will have general availability in April
2019 through Software AG’s Cumulocity IoT Edge. A preliminary
version will be available at Software AG’s booth at Hannover Fair,
starting on April 1.
