The Data Service Platform by Cnix is designed for factory automation systems, enabling legacy factories to be transformed into a unified virtual machine. This allows IT services such as AI, Big Data, Cloud, and IoT to operate with maximum efficiency. It also completely separates the IT service layer from the field layer by collecting all data from field devices along with their metadata and loading it into the network. As a result, IT services only need to know the data names, without any concern for the underlying field hardware. Additionally, IT services remain unaffected by any changes in hardware system configurations.

​

The powerful features of the Data Service Platform enable IT services to integrate, control, and supervise all processes—from raw material input process to final product output process—in large-scale plants. When high-speed logical linking between signals from different types of PLCs is required, the Data Service Platform makes it easy with its intuitive engineering environment provided by Cnix.

​

Imagine having application software and IT services that can control and supervise all the processes required for your products—regardless of the hardware configurations in the field layer. With this, your entire operation becomes a single virtual machine, perfectly synchronized in the time domain from raw material inputs to final product outputs. Even better, such application software and IT services can be packaged and sold as software solutions for the same processes, dramatically reducing the cost and time required for commissioning in plant replication.

The Data Service Platform by Cnix makes this possible.

 

The Data Service Platform was designed and developed by field engineers specializing in control systems. However, it can be applied to Smart City solutions in the same way. For more information, see the playlist of “Smart Technology” from official channel of Youtube and Facebook.
