Central platform for seamless data exchange between systems

The challenge

So far there have been different databases for the corrugator, which all communicated in different ways, and not with each other. For example, it is not possible to inform about changes in other databases via the running application or to view data centrally. This complex system therefore requires a lot of maintenance and updating effort. In the future, there will be a central data platform for the Corrugator, which will enable standardized data exchange between different applications, based on a unified data model.

How we helped

The individually developed IoT-solution, DBM, is the new center for efficient data acquisition and data quality. It synchronizes various interfaces in this complex system and ensures the simple linking of master and process data. This makes it possible to recognize in more detail which machine parameters used which order to run through the Corrugator.

The benefits:

• Improved data quality and reduced maintenance efforts through standardized, transparent data models
• High performance thanks to Apache Kafka
• Scalable, to guarantee the expansion of further functions and developments
